Can XCopyArea work on the desktop?
Hi, I want to copy one area of desktop to another place. However I find the XCopyArea function only work on windows(widgets), can't work on the desktop itself. The term desktop, I means the screen. Is it so? thank you very much for any information. It's an urgent work.

Hello I'm trying to compile XFree86 3.3.6 on a SuSE 8.1 (kernel 2.4.19) but get the following compile errors: [...] In file included from connection.c:79: /usr/include/stdlib.h:699: parse error before int make[4]: *** [connection.o] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory /usr/XFree86/3.3.6/source/xc/programs/xfs/os` make[3]: *** [os] Error 2 [...] Hard to imagine there's something wrong with the stdlib.h, so what else could it be? I didn't tamper with the sources...

Might that be a problem? Also I'm using gcc-3.2-36 if that makes any difference. I'd appreciate any help to get 3.3.6 running on my machine.

Re: rewriting touch driver from XFree86 3.3.6 to 4.2.0
Hello, I was told that the wizard pen driver works for the USB version of this controller: http://www.stud.fit.vutbr.cz/~xhorak28/index.php.iso-8859-1?page=WizardPen_Driver I have not tried it so not sure if it will work for a PS/2 interface (which I have too), but maybe the driver writers can help. -quentin On Wed, 2005-10-19 at 11:20 +0200, Stefan Strobl wrote: Hello I just joined this mailinglist and hope this topic hasn't been discussed to many times before. I've got an existing touch driver for the touch controller UR7HCTS2 from semtech (which is connected via the PS/2 interface) for Linux kernel 2.4 and XFree86 3.3.6. Now I need to rewrite the driver for XFree86 4.2.0 and have some problems. It starts with include files such as xf86Procs.h and xf86_Config.h that don't seem to exist in 4.2.0 anymore. This is my first attempt to write a driver for XFree86 at all. Can anybody point out a good documentation on how to rewrite a driver from 3.3.6 to 4.2.0? Usually, is it a lot of work to rewrite such a driver? Has anybody experience with the UR7HCTS2 controller? Any comments are appreciated.

Re: Can XCopyArea work on the desktop?
XCopyArea can copy arbitrary rectangles of the desktop if the source is the root window and the GC has IncludeInferiors for the sub-window mode. See the man page on XSetSubwindowMode. There are a few Xlib functions for getting the root window ID (XRootWindow, XDefaultRootWindow, XRootWindowOfScreen). Mark.
