X server dying (seg 11) when cursor reaches bottom of the screen.
Hello, ... I am currently developping a new driver for a not yet supported graphic card. It used to work well as long as i was working with a mid January cvs snapshot, but i recently upgraded to 4.3.0 sources and built a driver from that, and since then i am experiencing X server crash when the mouse reaches the bottom of the screen. I did not encounter this problem before, nor does it appear when i use the vesa driver. My driver is currently unaccelerated and does not support HW cursor, i use shadowfb though (both with the driver and with the vesa driver). I tried running X trought gdb to get a bit more info, but it just froze the box, so i am a bit at a loss about finding what is going on, and would greatly appreciate some measure of help. The previous snapshot i was using did not seem to use the ARGB_Cursor thingy, and as the crashes happen when i bring the cursor to the bottom of the screen, it may be linked with that. It does not happen all the time when i bring the cursor at the bottom of the screen. It does not happen when all i have is background, but it does happen when i am over the gnome 2.2 panel, or if there is a few pixels of background between my xterm and the bottom of the screen. When in the gnome panel, it does not happen all the time, but only when on some icon or something which usually change color when i pass over it, and when part of the cursor is out of the screen in the bottom part. It does not happen when i move the gnome panel to the right or left of the screen and when part of the cursor is outside the screen. This is really strange to me, since the driver doesn't do any acceleration, and even the pixmap cache and OS memory management is not enabled, so i am rather lost, please someone help me out with this, or at least give me some indication as to what to do.

So, I'm at a loss now as to how to get the X server to core dump; I would expect it to just happen. I could be some permissions thing. The server runs with root privledges so you have to be careful where you dump stuff. Can you login remotely and run the server under the debugger, or attach the debugger to the running server? gdb /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 serverpid will attach to a running server. Then you do the module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules from the gdb prompt to load the modules, then continue. Any exceptions will show up in GDB.

bugfix to mouse driver drag locking code.
Please apply the following fix. It fixes a bug that occurs when mouse button with number greater than or equal to 5 is used as a drag toggle. Use -p1 when applying the patch.

[XFree86] [Bug 26] New: Can't switch off screen (ATI Radeon Mobility 9000)
Hello, I'm using Xfree86 4.3 (XFree86-4.3-5mdk.i586.rpm, the latest package from Mandrake Cooker). My laptop contains an ATI Radeon Mobility 9000 graphics card. This card is supposed to be supported with Xfree86 4.3, but I can't manage to switch the screen off: xset -display :0 dpms force off The screen gets black, but not switched off (backlighting is still on). This used to work fine on MDK 9.0 on another laptop with an older Radeon card (ATI Radeon Mobility M6). Unfortunately, I can't test 4.3 on this laptop. Hoping this helps. Don't hesitate to come back to me for more details and/or trials. Don't hesitate to post a comment on this bug if you're facing the same problem.

[XFree86] Problem with Shift+F* in XF4.3.0
I have just upgraded from XF 4.2.1 to 4.3.0 running on a FreeBSD-platform. I use a normal US-kblayout, but I have mapped some danish special letters to F7-F9 with xmodmap. My .xmodmaprc look like this: keycode 73 = ae AE keycode 74 = oslash Ooblique keycode 75 = aring Aring Ok.. F7 = ae works as it used to under 4.2.1, but the Shift-modified F*-keys does not not work under 4.3.0. Fx. shift+F7 produces ae, and not AE as expected. I don't think the problem has anything to do with the danish special chars, as keycode 73 = z Z makes F7 and Shift+F7 produces z, and never Z. Can anyone confirm this issue ? Maybe it's a FreeBSD-only issue. I run FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE if it matters to anyone. ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

[XFree86] XFree86 4.3.0 binary; cannot execute binary file
Hello, it's the first time I want to install XFree86 on my own, because I want to find out how things in X works. I use SuSE8.1 Linux on a Pentium1 machine. I have the minimal Installation of SuSE8.1 without X. I take the binary version of XFree86 4.3.0. I download the Xinstall.sh to find out, what version of XFree86 I need for my machine; I execute it on my machine; the message told me to use the binary version of Linux-ix86-glibc22. I download all the binaries told in the install file (only the necassary 12 files) from the ftp Server and the Linux-ix86-glibc22 directory. Then I want to execute the installation with sh Xinstall , but I was told that extract don't work proper. So I download the source of extract, compile it and then run the script sh Xinstall.shagain. Now all the files were extracted and copied in my fllesystem. But if I want to execute any binary of the /usr/X11R6/bin directory I am told: i.e. - bash: xf86config: cannot execute binary file What went wrong ? Don't the binaries work for Pentium1 machines ? Do I have to download the sources and then compile all sources for my pentium machine ? Possible wrong kernel settings ? Any help is welcome. Thanks a lot in advance!

Without XP we wouldn't be able to exchange these e-mails! I like Linux
(as it is similar to the Solaris I use at work) but I would want to be
totally reliant on it!
So to end I will give some of your suggestions a go in a structured
fashion and see what works best
Good night

Yes, I understand that a bit! I do dual boot with Win2K still as
evidently
I too am far away from being ready/able to changeover;[ !
Sorry I can't help you more...I keep checking all the posts and
reading
elsewhere in hopes to find something that might put some light on this
subject. If I read anything (more), or get help from the Xconfig
people (before or after the upgrade), I will try to pass it on.

The linux and XFree4 install was so I can run some 3D
applications...but I
did not know that glide was so specifically aimed...the Real problem
was
that I couldn't get the X server configured at all. Right now I am
stuck with 16 bit color...(using generic VESA in Xconfigurator, which
is
not as good as what I could get with the XFree86 version that came
with
RH7.3!
{I installed the 4.3 version as no other version even lists the
SiS300
chip...and it looks like 4.3 doesn't really support it either...)
Thanks for info on the .so (so's I am not a gonna worry (esp since no
system complaints!)
;)

Re: [XFree86] [XFree86(TM) Bug Report] Cirrus Logic driver causing checkered backgrounds
Hi Mark, On Sunday, March 23, 2003, at 02:17 PM, Mark Vojkovich wrote: Definitely a driver problem. Okay. All artifacts are 8x8 which seems to imply some problem with either the 8x8 pattern fills or the pattern unit interfering with other operations. You could try adding: Option XaaNoMono8x8PatternFillRect to the Section Device of the XF86Config file. New screen shot after doing this below... Btw, is there a listing of possible options somewhere on the web? i.e., is this one for the documentation. At any rate somebody familiar with the Cirrus driver should look into it. Is that something you personally organise, or is that in the hope that someone might have seen this message? Mark.
