[XFree86] XFree86 Without Root
Hi XFree86 list, tl;dr - Please can someone give me advice on running XFree86 as an unprivileged (non-root) user? OpenShift (http://www.openshift.com) is a service from Red Hat that gives you a completely free server with SSH and SFTP access. Unlike Amazon's free for 12 months model, this is free forever, and I've used it flawlessly since 2011. It's also not blocked in China. I can run command-line tools, Bash scripts, PHP, Python, Ruby, Java, you name it. The problem with OpenShift is that I don't have root access to the virtual machine. So everything has to happen through my user folder. I can export my path, but I basically have to compile each program I want from source. X11VNC is an X server and a VNC server in one. I've successfully compiled it, set up port forwarding, and tried to connect to the virtual machine. http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/ It connects! But then Xvfb gives an error: http://pastebin.com/RVNcVYvq If I run Xvfb independently, it gives a bit more information: http://pastebin.com/9rdf7tFd I installed Xfsrv from http://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/4.8.0/binaries/Linux-x86_64-glibc23/ but that gives me another error xfs: symbol lookup error: xfs: undefined symbol: _FontTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners I'm on the brink of having a GUI-capable cloud computer for free. Is it possible to modify XFree86 to use different directories instead of /tmp and /usr? If so, I think this is possible. Thank you! Peter http://peterburk.dyndns.org

[XFree86] ask for Xvfb
hi,all I want to build a Xvfb which do not write anything in /tmp. My problem is the Xvfb I build is 4M large, but the Xvfb in sites is 1M. my Xvfb is very slow when gtk_init() is running. I think some optinos should be set NO, but I don't know. I want to ask if there is any information, just as Xvfb.cf or host.def, that can help build 1.4M large Xvfb.

[XFree86] Help turning off Mouse Zapping
Hey. I figured that this must have been a Gnome issue, but I find it on KDE and other desktops. They all seem to have active corners and edges nowadays. Whenever my mouse gets close to the corners or edges of the screen, it magically gets a mind of its own and flies off to the corner or sides. This is extremely annoying and makes it difficult to use my applications. I've tried using different mice, but it still occurs with my two bluetooth mice and ,yone PS/2 mouse. I've tried changing the mouse sensativities. Since this happens with Gnome, KDE4, LXDE, Mate, Trinity all to some degree, I think that this must be an X issue under the hood. Of course, if it's a feature, I must presume that it was in response to Gnome/KDE soliciting it. Regardless, I'm not happy dealing with a mouse with a mind of its own. I didn't have this problem on Fedora 14. But, I finally realized that F14 was effectively at end-of-life, and was forced to upgrade to Fedora 17. And, now, this behaviour is happening all the time. Can someone please tell me why this is happening and how to turn it off. Many thanks! -t ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Indeed, process IDs are an OS corcern, not an X11 one. You might be able to find suggestions towards what you are looking for through a Google (or Yahoo, etc.) search.

[XFree86] Is there a defined xpixmap width limit?
Good day list! I've been searching for this for a while but, so far, it's still unclear to me : Is there a width and height limit for pixmaps? Widht / height type is int but I'm wondering what's the maximum supported values. I'm using GTK and I know GDK pixmaps and windows can't be wider than 65535. But I got a crash in a GTK app when trying to create a big pixmap, less wide than 65535 but wider than 32767: The program 'my_app' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. So my question is: Is it an 'out of memory' error (returned by malloc) or a width value above a defined limit? Mainly, I'd like to know if this is documented somewhere. I can provide an example programme that reproduces the issue. Thanks in advance for any hints. -- Emmanuel Thomas-Maurin manutm...@gmail.com ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Secondly, the compiler says Internal error: Killed, which would seem to imply it is being `kill -9`'ed by the kernel's OOM killer. Have you verified that you aren't simply running out of memory?

No mainline kernel source tarball contains

include/linux/utsrelease.h. They are both generated by

2.6.17. But the version.h included here advertises a

Therefore, the toolchain tarball was misgenerated in that
it does not also contain utsrelease.h. Likely an
oversight. Please report this problem to CodeSourcery
and see what they say.
This is the reply I got from code sourcery
My Debian desktop system also has linux/version.h but no
utsrelease.h. I also checked upstream GIT kernel sources, and while
both headers are built only version.h is installed
(include/linux/Kbuild:objhdr-y). CodeSourcery's current tools use the
recommended make headers_install to distribute kernel headers.
Are you trying to build a userspace server or a kernel module?
utsrelease.h might be available for kernel modules, which require a
build tree.
http://www.codesourcery.com/archives/arm-gnu/msg02922.html
Hummm. That's a good point. Looking deeper, this string isn't even used,
nor is it generated in the non-cross-compile case.
I'll get back to you.
Please use the following instead of the previous change ...

This will cause the release string to be nullified, which is what would

This will cause the release string to be nullified, which
is what would happen with other cross-compilation
environments that don't provide release information (or, for
that matter, other `uname` strings).
Thanks for the quick reply and patch Marc. Your patch fixes the UTS_RELEASE
issue.
There is another issue I am facing during the compilation:

Likely an oversight. Please report this problem to CodeSourcery and see what they say. This is the reply I got from code sourcery My Debian desktop system also has linux/version.h but no utsrelease.h. I also checked upstream GIT kernel sources, and while both headers are built only version.h is installed (include/linux/Kbuild:objhdr-y). CodeSourcery's current tools use the recommended make headers_install to distribute kernel headers. Are you trying to build a userspace server or a kernel module? utsrelease.h might be available for kernel modules, which require a build tree. http://www.codesourcery.com/archives/arm-gnu/msg02922.html Hummm. That's a good point. Looking deeper, this string isn't even used, nor is it generated in the non-cross-compile case. I'll get back to you. Thanks.

[XFree86] build failure
Hello, The build failure is not with xfree86 as a separate entity; but, a failure porting using MacPorts. The error is as follows: Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command cd /opt/ local/var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_xte rm/work/xterm-238 make all returned error 2 Command output: /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 -I. -I. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/opt/ local/include -I/opt/local/include/freetype2 -I. -I. -I/usr/X11R6/ include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include/freetype2 -I/usr/ X11R6/include -D__powerpc__ -D__DARWIN__ -DNO_ALLOCA -DCSRG_BASED -DXFREE86_FT2 -DUTMP -DOSMAJORVERSION=8 -DOSMINORVERSION=11 -I/usr/ X11R6/include -I/opt/local/include -U_XOPEN_SOURCE - D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -DSIGWINCH=28 -DPROJECTROOT='/usr/X11R6' - D__vendorversion__='Version 4.7.0 XFree86' -O2 -c ./charproc.c ./charproc.c: In function 'in_put': ./charproc.c:3301: error: 'fd_mask' undeclared (first use in this function) ./charproc.c:3301: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ./charproc.c:3301: error: for each function it appears in.) make: *** [charproc.o] Error 1 The reason I bring it up here is that is looks like something I ran into when working to get a successful build of xfree86 on the mac a couple of years ago and I wonder if anyone remembers this was an error that occurred then (I did not keep all the dumps) and what the fix was if it did occur.

Please help me to solve the above issue It seems likely that the bridge at 0:2:0 is not, in reality, forwarding I/O transactions to bus 1 because the I/O enable bit in its command register is off. The output from `scanpci -v` would confirm this. In any case, I strongly suspect that 0xf2000xxx I/O range to be completely useless to the Lynx3DM board. As such, you have a system whose designers wrong-headedly decided to cripple PCI I/O. Your options seem to be ... 1) Hack the driver to not reference fixed I/O resources (likely in the 0x3B0-0x3DF range). Such a change would not be accepted unless it was contolled by an option. 2) Replace the Lynx3DM with a board that does not need VGA resources. 2. I have another query.. If suppose i want to access the io reg from the xfree driver shall i use the addr 0xf200 directly or any io remapping is required for 0xf200? if required please help me how to do it .. I've already pointed you to xf86EnableIO() in os-support/linux/lnx_video.c. But I really don't think relocating the driver's I/O to 0xf200 will solve anything.

[XFree86] Xnest Font Server setting
Hi, I am trying to connect to XServer using Xnest as follows : Xnest :1 -kb -terminate -name -query X_SERVER_IP -geometry 1280x969 -fp tcp/FONT_SERVER_IP:7100 but I can only see a blank window which vanishes within a fraction of a second. The error I see is : could not open default font 'fixed'. Now, if I use, Xnest :1 -kb -terminate -name -query X_SERVER_IP -geometry 1280x969 -fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cursor/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/arkpandora,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc then I can successfully connect to X and can see Xnext login window. Now, if I run the first command again then this time it works fine without any error. Is there any reason why it did not work if I tried only FONT_SERVER_IP:7100 before specifying all the font paths and it worked after specifying font paths? Does this have anything to do with caching?

[XFree86] Prepress Forum Workflow, Want to use XFree86?
Hello, I run a prepress forum and am working on a special project using XFree86. The Sample Implementation of X11 (SI) comes with a large number of standard bitmap fonts, including the `fixed' family, and bitmap versions of Courier, Times, Helvetica and some members of the Lucida family. In the SI, these fonts are provided in the ISO 8859-1 encoding (ISO Latin Western-European). My question is this. If I want to add to the bitmap fonts in XFree86 for prepress and graphic design work, how do i go about doing that? Is there a font manager? where can I find information about using this in a font management intensive way, like with prepress workflow? Any direction would be helpful. Thank You. -- Regards, -- Samuel Hargis http://www.PrepressForum.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] Columbus, Ohio 43026 ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Dear Team, I downloaded Xfree86-4.5.0. The build fails indicating that it cannot find termcap library. In xc/lib folder, I do not find termcap folder containing sources.

Thanks. ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

The package you should reinstall is given by ... rpm -q -f /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ... or ... rpm -q -f /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc ... whichever file exists. rpm -q -f /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc works, but does not fix the problem. No, of course not. But it does tell you which package needs to be reinstalled. Find the corresponding RPM and do ... rpm -Uf rpmname I didn't go off on a tangent as much as a typo. In any event, is there is bug-free way to do the Xfree86 installation from scratch? Getting this to work by some patch is simply a poor solution to an installation bug. Also note, I entered kde in one of the terminal windows to force it to start. I get an error message could not start kstartupconfig. Check your installation. So I gather the Xfree86 installation caused this problem since the KDE enviroment was working fine until I installed xfree86. When you installed XFree86, it replaced your previously installed window manager setup with a default one that invokes twm. Thus re-installing XFree86 won't help.

[XFree86] Planning Stage - Community Input Request
originally sent from incorrect email address Dear Friends, At this time a new operating system for x86 massively parallel systems is being developed for a grant from the National Institute of Science. The OS allows free rendering of real-time brain behaviors in the operating room. Since it is not based on Linux or any other operating system designed for a windowing client (desktop) we are in need of a way to port an implementation of X to simply be portable c/c++ calls that have no external dependencies. This real-time system gets it's start as a raw kernel over the x64 implementation of AMD and Intel processors in (currently) 4, 8, and 32-cpu machines. Since the nature of the project is to use commodity hardware with a light but component-standardized OS as it's infrastructure, X is best :) The question has now become, which project may best fit this bill? A methodology of keeping it simple, straight-forward, light-weight, fast, hardware independent (best to simply output a bitmap to a memory buffer and let another driver place it on the screen), and so forth should help drive the decision. If possible, ports of additional graphical toolsets such as Mesa32, GLUT, VRML, and others should be able to use the implementation or be adapted to it. Thus, we turn to you, the community of knowledge-base experts, to get an opinion of how to proceed. Questions fielded generously, credit given where due, and appreciation to all of you. Please respond privately or to the group as etiquette dictates. Many Thanks and Warm Regards, John

XFree86 -logverbose 5 lock my system entirely. Even SysRq magic doesn't
work. I've failed to trace the reason out.
BTW, I've managed to synchronize my screen. I've overridden pATI-LCDClock

I don't use kernel framebuffer, so I think my console mode isn't accelerated.
But at this point, pATIHW-crtc is ATI_CRTC_MACH64. May it be the reason that
my console is not restored on exit? Is this the only method to restore video
state?
That pATIHW-crtc == ATI_CRTC_MACH64 at that point is proof positive that
you are lying to me WRT to not using atyfb.

[XFree86] XFree86 4.3 question
Would anyone know if XFree86-4.3.0-62.EL had problems with XFillRectangle and newly drawn bitmaps in RHEL 3? I have an application that draws rectangles into bitmaps (depth 1 pixmaps). These bitmaps are set as the stipple bitmap within corresponding full color GCs for a full color pixmap. The intent is to use XFillRectangle to stamp each bitmap into the pixmap with the display being the rectangle. This works fine in RHEL 4 with xorg-X11-6.8.2-1.EL.13.36 and not so fine with RHEL 3 with XFree86-4.3.0-62.EL. On RHEL 3, only some of the bitmaps appear in the final display. I figure the bitmaps are good, because I substitute XCopyPlane for XFillRectangle and the missing bitmaps will appear. I'd use XCopyPlane but it is way to slow for the amount of drawing I'm doing (literally billions of rectangles). Since it works in the one case, I'm hoping I'm just missing something simple like an initialization. But if there's a bug in release, I'll have to look at other options. (Also, are there any good resources on X programming other than the O'Reilly books?) Thanks, Willi ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

[XFree86] Palm Vacations, Vacation Network Website Makes Destination Planning Simple
Palm Vacations, Vacation Network Website Makes Destination Planning Simple Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) November 27, 2007 -- Finding a dream vacation just got easier thanks to the new Vacation Network, Inc. website. Launched November 20, 2007, the new site offers improved features and greater functionality that make learning about vacation destinations and other services easier for Vacation Network clients. After eight years in business, Vacation Network has established a sizeable customer base. In an effort to better serve them and provide the technology-savvy group with a more efficient way to search for destinations and plan trips, the company decided to overhaul their existing site. Additionally, the new site and company anniversary provided optimal timing for a re-branding initiative, including a new logo and overall look for the company. Since our inception business has grown considerably, said Teddy Kavadas, General Manager of Sales. Our decision to develop a more interactive site was based on our desire to make the vacation search and scheduling process simpler. A good percentage of our business comes from referrals, so giving back to the people who have fueled our success was really a no-brainer. A main feature of the new site is the search function that allows clients to search vacations by location as well as activity. For example, clients can search for vacation spots that offer golf, skiing, beaches, and more. We wanted clients to be able to explore the possibilities before booking to ensure they're really getting everything they want from their vacation, said Kavadas. Users are now also able to complete a vacation request form online before mailing it in as well as view excess inventory complete with pictures. The new site also features a testimonial page that allows clients to share their vacation experiences. With the overhaul of the Vacation Network website came an overhaul of the company's referral program as well. The new program boasts greater incentives for referrals regardless if the program is purchased. We really care about our customers. The greater referral incentives are just another way to give back to our loyal customers.
Re: [XFree86] The Ticket Clinic, Accutane Side Effects Lawyer: Hair Loss, Depression, Suicide
Ok, and what does this have to do with xfree86? I'm surprised this one got past the postmaster. On 1/3/08, Blogger Man [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The Ticket Clinic, Accutane Side Effects Lawyer: Hair Loss, Depression, Suicide You probably know the drug isotretinoin by its trade name, accutane. Accutane is a powerful drug often used to treat acne. Unlike other acne treatments, which are simply antibacterial agents, accutane actually changes the composition of the skin. Accutane causes skin to produce less oil, which almost always results in a reduction of acne. Accutane is very powerful and effective, but this comes with some very dangerous side effects that everybody should be aware of. If used or administered improperly, accutane can do more harm than good. Almost everybody who uses accutane suffers from mild side effects like itchy skin, chapped lips, hair loss, and nosebleeds. These are very minor compared with some of the more dramatic side effects. Accutane causes horrible birth defects if used while a mother is pregnant, and women taking accutane have to sign a contract that they are willing to undertake an abortion if they become pregnant during or directly after their use of accutane. Other problems include decreased night vision, joint pain, and disorders of the intestinal and urinary systems. Some patients develop terrible headaches that can lead to brain aneurisms. Some patients taking accutane fall into severe depression and many have committed suicide. The actual numbers are hard to come by because the majority of accutane users are young adolescents, an age group that is always plagued by raging hormones and emotional swings. When these young people take their lives while using accutane their families do not always realize that the depression, and resulting death, was actually caused by the drug. Some people feel that drug companies should be held responsible for distributing a drug with side effects as life-threatening as the disease of depression. If you or someone you love is using accutane and is suffering from any of these terrible side effects, please talk to a trained drug lawyer. Victims across the country are filing suit with Roche Pharmaceuticals, the makers of accutane, to gain justice for the terrible side effects accutane has unleashed. Accutane can produce pleasing aesthetic results, but at a potentially devastating cost in health risks. Never miss a thing.

[XFree86] Running XF86_SVGA on ancient Thinkpad 560
Hello I installed DSL 3 on an old Thinkpad 560 and am trying to get X to work correctly. The laptop is a 2640-10U with a Trident Cyber9382 chipset and a 11.3 DSTN display. After lots of head-beating, I discovered that the only thing would work was XF86_VGA. I downloaded a binary (I think version 3.x), found some XF86Config settings that mostly worked and was able to get a desktop to appear. The problem now is that there is a strange band that is about an inch tall and screen width at the bottom that is fuzzed out. All other parts of the screen appear to be OK. I took a (bad) picture of it and you can see it here: http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x263/flyngti/tech/thinkpad560_screen.jpg I know that the hardware is working fine since this laptop was running Win95 with no display problems.

I have attached the file Free86.0.log in this email. I need your help! Thanks. With best regards, Sincerely yours, Zhongliang Chen Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences Beijing, P. R. China XFree86.0.log Description: Binary data
Re: [XFree86] XFree86.0.log
Problem is evident in bottom of log...you either have no mouse or the RH7 VM isn't able to produce one. Try fiddling around with gpm or sumthin and see if you can get mouse access. If that doesn't work, check your VMware settings and make sure that the VM can see the mouse. X is choking because it can't find a mouse...either the VM is screwed up or VMware isn't showing a mouse to the VM. ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

[XFree86] Missing separator error when building
Trying to build on Solars 10 SPARC. XFree86 version 4.7.0 Using GNU Make, not Sun's make. Get this error: gmake[3]: Entering directory `/apps/XFree86/v4.7.0/xc/lib/freetype2' Makefile:1152: *** missing separator. Stop. Note that the word separator in the make lingo means tab character. When I look at the Makefile in the freetype2 directory I can see what the problem is. There is a section that looks like this: install:: \ @if [ -f $(DESTDIR)$(INCDIR)/freetype2/ft2build.h ]; then \ \ (set -x; $(RM) -f $(DESTDIR)$(INCDIR)/freetype2/ft2build.h) \ \ fi What make is saying is that after a target (in this case 'install') the actions under that target must be indented by a tab character. As you can see this is not the case because of those lines with a single initial backslash on them. I'm really a newbie on make and the circus around it so I do not know how to proceed. I understand that the Makefile in question is generated every time I run the 'make World' command but I'm not clever enough to follow the track and pinpoint where this goes wrong. thanks for any help you can give.
RE: [XFree86] Missing separator error when building
I've worked it out (possibly). In file .../xc/´lib/freetype2/Imakefile I've removed some trailing '@@\' from lines in the section with the install target. This avoids lines with only a '\' in the resulting Makefile. That made it work. It must admit I do not have a clue as to what I'm doing, but it worked for now. -- original message below - Trying to build on Solars 10 SPARC. XFree86 version 4.7.0 Using GNU Make, not Sun's make.

[XFree86] multiple users feature (not remote, two-keyboard)
Hi Folks, i got an question about multiple users on one machine. Its an simple calculation of my own: 1x PC 2x Keyboard (ps2, usb) 2x Graphiccard (R350 (AGP), Voodoo Banshee (PCI)) 2x Monitor 2x person (me, my girlfriend) So iv created 2 serverlayouts in my xorg.conf (but unconfigured keyboard and mices - think both serverlayouts uses corekeyboard) Sitouations: Iv started startx -- -layout voodoo :0 The left(primary voodoo) monitor gets blank. The right(secondary R350) monitor open up the graphic-mode, showing the goodold system-window-manager. ... Fine i think. i have openup the xconsole an type: startx -- layout radeon :1 oops! Unexpected termination so my question: is it possible to use linux by two persons at the same time? may is it possible to execute two instances of x? if its so, what do i have to do to do so!? --- Dis is kein Spam _ Der WEB.DE SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen! http://smartsurfer.web.de/?mc=100071distributionid=0066 ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Still, if I could I'd like to try to work around the bug: any idea where I'd find the source for the original Xvfb, so I could try to determine what it's complaining about? Quite a bit of Apple's sources can be found at ... http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource A followup on this, in case it ever bites anyone else. Source that behaves like the OSX 10.4 release of X11 is at http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/tarballs/other/X11-0.46.4.tar.gz (I'm not completely sure that's exactly what is on the CD, but it was close enough to solve my problem.) And the solution to my problem was to specify CWBorderPixel when I called XCreateWindow. Without that my call failed in the CreateWindow function in xc/programs/Xserver/dix/window.c.
