Hi Folks, Warning: this is one of those "will someone tell me what I did so that I can undo it?" questions. I recently installed X11R6.9. For the most part it's great, much faster acceleration. It took a while, and I locked myself out of X a few times and had to hack around a little to get back in. In the process I've managed to uglify my login scripts and log files. I now have two Xorg logs: /var/log/Xorg.0.log & /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old. tail gives: ==> /var/log/Xorg.0.log <== (**) Option "CustomKeycodes" "off" (**) Keyboard0: CustomKeycodes disabled (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Keyboard0" (type: KEYBOARD) (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse1" (type: MOUSE) (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse0" (type: MOUSE) (--) Mouse0: PnP-detected protocol: "ExplorerPS/2" (II) Mouse0: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded (II) Mouse1: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/, removing from list! Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing from list! ==> /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old <== (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse1" (type: MOUSE) (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse0" (type: MOUSE) (--) Mouse0: PnP-detected protocol: "ExplorerPS/2" (II) Mouse0: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded (II) Mouse1: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/, removing from list! Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing from list! (II) RADEON(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel (II) RADEON(0): [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0xf89c8000 at 0xb799a000 FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/:unscaled" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing. Also, login has gotten noisy, a root login looks like this: declare -x HOME="/root" declare -x HUSHLOGIN="TRUE" declare -x HZ="1024" declare -x LOGNAME="root" declare -x MAIL="/var/mail/root" declare -x OLDPWD declare -x PATH="/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin" declare -x PWD="/root" declare -x SHELL="/bin/bash" declare -x SHLVL="1" declare -x TERM="linux" declare -x USER="root" At least now I know how to set the RTC frequency at login, but I would like to revert to a quiet login. I think that I must have inadvertently changed the xauth configuration, as I'm getting .serverauth files written to my home directory. Also, in addition to the /tmp/.ICE-unix directory, there is now /tmp/.X11-unix. I'm not sure whether that was there before or not. Did I mess this up all by myself, or has the way Xorg manages logging/authorization changed with the new release? What config files are responsible for writing the log files, and how can I clean this up? Apologies for the length and the vagueness of this post, any suggestions very much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Jonathan. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.8 <http://mailcrypt.sourceforge.net/> iD8DBQFD0RBDCibrChMdb1sRAtLgAKCHG60hRLVRib8oyUYNCvuxzxarBwCfZgLt 7pnyr0uNN2GQ3U88JgaYjko= =HZv3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
