Bug#425662: xserver-xephyr: gets keyboard shift functions mixed up
Package: xserver-xephyr Version: 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-5 Severity: normal Hi, I am using the command line Xephyr -query localhost :1 -ac -screen 1200x900 to start a second KDE session under a second account. It frequently happens that the keyboard gets mixed up in a way that a normal character key emits a capital letter while a shifted character key emits a lower case letter. Special character keys work normally, and all the caps lock / shift lock key does it switching the keyboard light on and off. There seems to be no way to get out of this (at least I haven't found it yet) without terminating Xephyr. This might be corelated with the error message The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: Warning: Type ONE_LEVEL has 1 levels, but RALT has 2 symbols Ignoring extra symbols Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server that Xephyr spews to the console once in a while.

I reckon I won't be seeing dual-head again for a while. But the i810 (now named intel apparently?) driver is working single-head as I would expect (except that when I tried that xrandr --output VGA --right-of LVDS command, the machine locked up hard (I thought *nix was supposed to be more resilient than to lock up at the hands of a non-root user...)), so you can go ahead and close this ticket. I think there are other tickets I can add to now, maybe.

After upgrading Sid on both, both stopped having working X setups; switching to the vesa driver in xorg.conf sort of restores X, but at reduced resolution and other issues. When using the i810 driver in xorg.conf: On the laptop, the screen switches from text mode to a dark glow like it's in a blank graphics mode. Trying to kill X with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace doesn't work, nor does trying to switch to a VT (Ctrl-Alt-F1, etc). I can plug in an external 19 monitor and press Fn-F8 (the video switch combo on the Dell laptop), and the vidoe switches to the external, and sometimes gives me workable video, sometimes not. Fn-F8 again will bring the video back to the laptop, but it remains dark and frozen. When I'm switched to the external monitor, I can switch to a VT, and another Fn-F8 or three and I can get text mode working again on the laptop screen. Lockups have become common, and automatic power-saving (hibernation, standby) has ceased working (although that might be unrelated); if I manually put it in standby, when I try to wake it up, the keyboard appears unresponsive (I've not had ssh ability to see if it's remotely accessible), and I wind up powering down the laptop and restarting. When using the vesa driver, the laptop works better, but still not correctly, so the problem may not be in the xserver-xorg-video-i810 driver, but elsewhere in the graphics system. The desktop machine, also being freshly upgraded in X, has started exhibiting similar symptoms. It's a dual-head box, and when I switch the i810 driver to vesa, the machine is, like the laptop, semi-usable, but not very; it allows the ATI-driven monitor to fire up, but the Intel-driven monitor stays dark; I can move windows from one monitor to the other, so the system _thinks_ the monitor is there (but of course I can't see the windows once they're moved to the dark Intel-driven one). When using the i810 driver on the desktop box, I get the following types of messages (snippage; I'm unsure if reportbug will let me attach the log file, so here's what seems to me to be relevant): (**) intel(0): Depth 16, (--) framebuffer bpp 16 (==) intel(0): RGB weight 565 (==) intel(0): Default visual is TrueColor (II) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) 865G (--) intel(0): Chipset: 865G (--) intel(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xE800 (--) intel(0): IO registers at addr 0xFEB8 (II) intel(0): 1 display pipe available.

Bug#425683: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics: breaks appletouch pads
Package: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Version: 0.14.7~git20070517-1 Severity: normal When I use the new version 0.14.7~git20070517-1 of the synaptics driver, I can no longer do proper tapping with my finger, and whenever I put my finger down on the touchpad (appletouch) the mouse cursor jumps around. When jumping around, the cursor appears to favour moving to the left, but I couldn't really see any sense in the position it jumped to, it definitely wasn't the position I'd have expected for an absolute pad driven by the standard X driver. I have verified that synaptics is used (by turning the touchpad off with synclient) and I have diffed for new config options in .7, these are: * FingerPress, * TrackstickSpeed and * EmulateTwoFingerMinZ but changing them doesn't have any effect on the jumping cursor behaviour. To summarize: Instead of doing a button press when tapping the touchpad, the mouse cursor jumps around randomly with version 0.14.7~git...-1, I initially thought this was the trackstick emulation but that doesn't seem to be the case based on the description and the fact that the new options don't affect the observed behaviour. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-rc1-g79e90214-dirty (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xserver-xorg-input-synaptics depends on: ii libc6 2.6~20070518-1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libx11-62:1.1.1-1X11 client-side library ii libxext61:1.0.3-2X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxi6 2:1.1.0-2X11 Input extension library ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-5 X.Org X server -- core server xserver-xorg-input-synaptics recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

So the driver thinks you have both an internal display (LVDS) and an external monitor (VGA) plugged to this board. There is at least one known bug about the driver reporting that VGA is plugged while it is not on a i855 chipset, see [1]. If you don't actually have a VGA monitor and want to enable the internal panel, you should try: DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output VGA --off --output LVDS --auto to force disabling the VGA output and enable the internal one until the bug is fixed. If it helps, I'll merge those bugs (and we'll try to tweak your xorg.conf to do this at startup).

Bug#289338: xserver-xfree86: impossible to setup 1400x1050 mode
Le Sat, 05 May 2007 00:02:50 +0200, Brice Goglin a écrit:
Hi,
About 2 years ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding the
3dfx driver not accepting 1400x1050 resolution. Did you reproduce this
problem recently? With Xorg/Etch? If not, I will close this bug in the
next weeks.
This was not easy to check because my tdfx configuration was asleep in a
closet. Anyway I did a fresh Etch install on it and can report now.
The bug is still here, though I have some news: the unknown reason is
still here but there a line just before saying
rejecting mode with horizontal resolution 1400 not divisibile by 16 and
clock 179260 greater than 135000
(check the joined logs / configs)
Of course 1400 isn't a multiple of 16 but I know it's not a hardware
constraint. Additionally I tested with no explicit modeline and it works
out a 1400x1050 @ 60 Hz resolution ! (see t1/*)
I don't know where the 135000 comes from... but it's totally not coherent.
It has picked up 1280x960 @ 85 Hz which works at 148.5 MHz. The card has
aXorg.0.log clock range (logged) from 12 to 270 MHz which is far enough to
display themode I wanted.
And the DRI is still disabled at hi-res :( ... well that's another bug.
Joined config logs: xtests.tar.bz2 contains xtests/t{1,2}/
{xorg.conf,Xorg.0.log}. t1 has no modeline and displays 1400x1050 @ 60Hz,
while t2 has an explicit modeline and only displays at 1280x960.

Hope this helps,
Fabien.

Package: x11-common
Version: 7.0.20
Severity: important
Short story:
Upgrade from 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 to 7.0.20 failed (in testing). The error
message was very generic and did not give enough details to acutally
handle the problem. An (not-anymore) Debian package was removed (which
had files in /usr/X11R6/bin/) but even then (when only Debian packages
had files in /usr/X11R6/bin/) x11-common refused to upgrade. Only
after removing all packages which have files in /usr/X11R6/bin/
x11-common upgrades.
At a minimum, the output of
for i in /usr/X11R6/bin/*; do dpkg -S $i; done |awk '{print $1}' | sort -u |
less
should be given to the user.
This bug looks similar to #370353 (but I am not given any details)
Since I try to keep informed of Debian developments, I already heard
about this problem before (sorry, did not see a bug), so I was able to
cope. Less informed/experienced people might not.
Long story
~~
I currently try to upgrade to x11-common_1%3a7.0.20. However, the
upgrade always fails because x11-common claims some files to be left
in /usr/X11R6/bin which need removing. I tried to upgrade other
packages (besides X) first, so to get as little files as possible in
this directory; but every dist-upgrade call now fails because
apt-get insists on updating x11-common first.
This machine is a amd64 install (sid/testing) from around fall 2004. I
am almost pure Debian so I expected this directory to be almost empty
already, but no:

Thanks to dpkg -S I see that four packages are responsible for these
files:
xbase-clients, xfs, xutils and xv.
The first three are stock Debian, the last one is no longer (used to
be in woody, my recompile in Sarge). So I remove it, but the upgrade
of x11-common still fails. To be sure, I recheck the package owners of
files in /usr/X11R6/bin/:
xbase-clients, xfs, and xutils.
So I try to update those specifically:
apt-get install xbase-clients xfs xutils
remaxp:~# env LANG=C apt-get install xbase-clients xfs xutils
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
libfontenc1 libxfont1 x11-common xfonts-encodings xfonts-utils xutils-dev
Suggested packages:
x-window-system-core x-window-system mesa-utils
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libfontenc1 libxfont1 xfonts-encodings xfonts-utils xutils-dev
The following packages will be upgraded:
x11-common xbase-clients xfs xutils
4 upgraded, 5 newly installed, 0 to remove and 99 not upgraded.
2 not fully installed or removed.
Same error. So I remove them, which also removes

Packages removed for x11-common to be able to install: ucbmpeg-play qvwm opera-static The existing xorg.conf was very complex; it caused the Xserver to segfault. I have attached it but am not currently using it; I will probably be re-adding may of the changes if I find a specific problem I will add it here. I regenerated a new xorg.conf accepting the defaults (except for the display name and acceptable video modes). The machine this is on is a Toshiba Portage R100. Value in XkbLayout of generated xorg.conf file was uk the correct value is gb. With uk the keyboard was in us layout and the Ctrl-Alt Fkeys did not work. The default layout also used the synaptics driver for the 'touch-pad' mouse, I understand the device is an 'ALPS Glidepad'. This is sufficiently different from a synaptics for the default setup of the synaptics driver to be unusable and the documentation is not sufficient to correct this without a LOT of guesswork. I have disabled the synaptics driver and am using the default ps/2 setup.
