Mouse Failure in X
Hi! I'm using a Mouse Systems serial mouse. When I startx, twm starts up fine, but as soon as I touch the mouse, it disappears and I can see a little activity in the lower left corner of the screen (the entire virtual desktop panned as though I moved the mouse down there) However, the cursor seems to be stuck in the corner. Clicking and moving doesn't do anything. X is *not* locked up however, the focus is still on the login xterm, so exit works to get out. No error messages are reported when I'm out of X. What do I need to do to get unstuck? This is my current config: Section Pointer ProtocolMouseSystems Device /dev/ttyS0 Emulate3Buttons Emulate3Timeout 50 EndSection -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

X cursor crapped out
Hi! I put a new video card in and was playing around with the settings. I locked up X about three timesso bad that I had to tap the reset button on my PC. I now have the correct settings, but my cursor is shot. Instead of the little X, I now get a handful of dark colored pixels scattered in a little clump on the screen. I can still *use* the cursor, I just can't be sure of exactly where it's pointing! Is there a file I can replace to fix this? Or do I have to reinstall X again? I have a feeling I corrupted it during the fiasco. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
gdk-imlibg
Does anyone know where I can find the binaries of gdk-imlibg and gdk-imlibg-dev? I downloaded the Enlightenment .13 binary and imlib1g from a Japanese site during a severe net dredge for Enlightenment. Everything is working fine right now, but to install imlibg, I had to remove the old imlib1, -dev, and gdk files due to conflict issues. I'm worried that I may run into problems later now that I removed them. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Imlib compilation error
First I would like to extend a thanks to all of you who helped me with my imake madness problem. Since then, I have installed the GNU autoconf in the hopes that *it* might work. At this time, I am having problems at the gdk_imlib make install. I get the following two error messages: gdk_imlib_types.h:7: gdk/gdk.h : No such file or directory gdk_imlib_types.h:8: gdk/gdkprivate.h: No such file or directory make : *** [cache.o] Error 1 Does anyone have any idea what I need to do? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

imake madness
I need help...again. I'm trying to get the enlightenment window manager on my box. I followed the instructions for installing ImageMagick and I made sure imake was installed (came with X 3.3). Next step was supposed to be imlib. imlib does not come as a binary, so I have to compile it. Here's where it gets messy... I untarred the file into /usr/local/src ( had to mkdir the src directory). Then I ran xmkmf -a (this is the second time) instead of moving on to the make part, I got the following message: mv -f Makefile Makefile.bak imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config imake : No such file or directory imake : Cannot exec /lib/cpp. Stop. imake : Exit code 1. Stop. (BTW, I'm using gcc) What's wrong with my setup?? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: imake madness
In regards to an earlier post I downloaded and installed a C interpreter. Now I get messages indicating several missing includes such as: /usr/include/sys/time.h:6: linux/time.h: No such file or directory However, when I look in /usr/include/sys, there *is* a time.h file. But what the hell is linux/time.h referring to?!?! From: Self Single-user mode To:debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: imake madness Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 22:10:12 I need help...again.

embarassing X questions
Good evening folks! I have 3 questions that I don't see really covered in my X book. 1) Is there somewhere I can read up on the different types of windows managers? 2) I loaded X without a windows manager installed. I can move my mouse around, but that's about it, no menus or anything. I switched VCs just to make sure I wasn't locked up :-).. The question is..how do I properly close out of X without a windows manager? 3) After X loads up, my screen is shifted one character to the left, wrapping to the right hand side of the screen...what's that all about? I'm forced to reboot to straighten it out! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
More embarassing X questions
Actually, I have a slight correction :-) I rebooted and got the unable to find usable termcap entry error again. I had mentioned in a previous post that all I could find was a terminfo directory. Do I need to create a link to a file in this directory? And if so, what would it be? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
