broken xf86PciInfo.h and xf86cfg/config.h
The licence updates to xf86PciInfo.h haven't patched cleanly, and are mis-commented, breaking the build. The attached patch fixes this. -- xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/xf86cfg/config.h is also broken; it includes the lines: config.h #include unistd.h === #ifdef sun #undef index #undef rindex #include strings.h #endif #include unistd.h 1.20 I'm not clear which version we wish to keep. -- Dr. Andrew C.

I ran the command truss -f ffbconfig -prconf to see where Sun's programmers

Do these look familiar to anyone? I have grepped my whole hard drive with no
luck in finding definitions or documentation of these requests. Also, some
searches on Goole report people with similar problems...but no answers,
unfortunately.
It might help to know that the Linux kernel defines some of these as
/* Creator ioctls */
#define FFB_IOCTL ('F'8)
#define FFB_SYS_INFO(FFB_IOCTL|80)
#define FFB_CLUTREAD(FFB_IOCTL|81)
#define FFB_CLUTPOST(FFB_IOCTL|82)
#define FFB_SETDIAGMODE (FFB_IOCTL|83)
#define FFB_GETMONITORID(FFB_IOCTL|84)
#define FFB_GETVIDEOMODE(FFB_IOCTL|85)
#define FFB_SETVIDEOMODE(FFB_IOCTL|86)
#define FFB_SETSERVER (FFB_IOCTL|87)
#define FFB_SETOVCTL(FFB_IOCTL|88)
#define FFB_GETOVCTL(FFB_IOCTL|89)
#define FFB_GETSAXNUM (FFB_IOCTL|90)
#define FFB_FBDEBUG (FFB_IOCTL|91)
Other than that, my only suggestion is that there might be a package on
your installation CDs that defines these.
Marc.

Patch: single button double-click
Hi all, The one thing I missed from my Windows days was the ability to assign one of the mouse buttons to perform a left button double-click. It's pretty much a universal feature on Windows mouse drivers these days (with buttons being in ample supply on many mice), and I like it because I find the action of double-clicking irritating ;-).Also, my mother has arthritis, and finds double-clicking to be very awkward. She finds having a single button to do the double-clicking makes things much more comfortable. I tried to find the feature on Linux, and couldn't. I searched XFree86, qt, and kde, and it didn't seem to be there. Then I decided to implement it myself. Not being sure where to implement it, I finally decided to do it in XFree86 because then it can be useful to all of the window managers etc. I've made (pretty trivial) changes in xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/xf86OSmouse.h and xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/input/mouse/mouse.c. The result is a new option (DoubleClickButtons) where I can specify the source and target buttons, ie. pressing the source button will result in a double-click on the target button (the source button is no longer available for any other function). The double-click is just implemented by posting press-release-press-release with no delays in between. A nice side-effect is that I can decrease the double-click delay in KDE, which makes certain operations snappier. So my question is: is anyone else interested in this? I'm more than happy to make it public, but I don't know diff and I'll have to look into where these things are documented and I won't bother if no-one will use it :-) Oh, and if the feature already exists and I just failed to find it, please let me know. If nothing else, it may at least show me where my search technique is deficient! Cheers, Rob Brown. ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
