If my latest build does work, then I was going to recommend that the savage driver be updated to 1.1.27t in CVS prior to 4.3.0, but if it does not work, then some change that went into XFree86 CVS on top of 1.1.26t broke support for these chips.

Re: Overlay
Thank you for your help. Derek Lukasik wrote: Hello, I've been going through how Xserver implements Overlay. I still find information on this very limited. So I'm hoping that this thread will enlighten me more about this. First of all the Chips and Technologies driver implements overlay using 2 different framebuffers. Unfortunatly I can't get my hands on one to see how it works. But here's my questions: Let's say you have 2 different visuals. One PseudoColor and one TrueColor. You have an application that runs only in PseudoColor. As I understand the 8 bit app will be drawn on the overlay surface. I need to confirm on how does it know where to draw itself. For example, when I move the window with a border that is TrueColor. How does it get updated? How does it know where to display the overlay surface? The app doesn't know anything about how to draw itself. All the work happens in the driver. All the app has to know is that it is rendering to a depth 8 PseudoColor surface. The driver must look at requests coming from clients, note that they're targeted at the overlay surface, and fulfill the request appropriately. When you mention moving a window with a TrueColor border, I assume you're referring to the window manager decorations as the border. A single window in X cannot have a border with a different depth. A parent window can have children with different depths, however. That is usually the situation with a window manager. When you move the parent window, its children (in whatever layer) move as well. The color key concept is confusing for me. For example: the driver has index 255 to be the color key. What does that mean for an 8 bit app? Anything with color index 255 will be transparent? Or does that mean that anything with that color index will be visible? Overlay is typically implemented by reserving one index in the PseudoColor palette for transparency. This allows clients to render transparency if they wish. That index is usually 255. It is indicated by the SERVER_OVERLAY_VISUALS property. Clients should decode that property to determine that transparent index value. The property tells you which visuals are overlay visuals and for each, what type of transparency they implement (as well as the transparent index). The X server may present multiple overlay visuals. One visual may implement transparency whereas another may not (again look at the SERVER_OVERLAY_VISUALS property). The point here is that within the same class of visual, you may encounter both overlay opaque (no transparency) and overlay transparent visuals. A client should choose the appropriate visual dependent upon their needs (i.e. if they don't want transparency, don't select a visual with transparency enabled). Not all drivers implement this functionality. Most implement only transparent visuals. So, when you get to that last entry (usually 255), you start seeing through to the image planes. There's overlay for diplaying an 8 bit app on a 24 bit surface. But there's also overlay when you want draw something over something you don't want to destroy. By reserving color cells for overlay. It doesn't seem the same kind of overlay. Not sure what you're asking here. Are you referring to the different types of overlay implementation? Where some drivers implement overlay within the alpha channel of the image planes verses those that use an entirely independent surface? Does anyone have some more apps that experiment with colormaps and overlays? L

Which is fine if you use GNU iconv. For those of us that use the iconv as it was originally invented, libcharset doesn't seem to help very much. Maybe I am missing what its trying to do but certainly on Unixware and OpenServer, it does nothing of any use. The way I got around this on OpenServer was (I think) rather sneaky. Our iconv() lets you add in a .so for any given encoding. So I added the ability to define in the iconv data file a fallback mechanism ... basically * * for the from to fields. Then I simply put the whole of GNU iconv in under that entry. So our system defined conversions are used first, and for all those Linux-centric applications that are so badly written to really only support one OS now just work. Note that iconv as originally invented is ENTIRELY BROKEN because no list of standardized encoding names was specified and no set of encodings was required. I don't know what politics or technical oversight was behind this, but it means that using iconv() portably is impossible without extra infrastructure. The GLib library (used by GTK+, GNOME, etc) works around this by using the libcharset data in both directions ... as well as getting a standardized form of encodings reported by the operating system, it will use it convert standardized names into names that are likely to work for iconv() on a particular system.

Harbison Steele also refers to the macro setjump and the function
longjmp.
This certainly complicates things.
A couple of possibilities:
1. Include setjmp.h directly into modules that need it, ensure that the
necessary (platform-specific) entry points are exported, and accept that
modules that use it are not OS-neutral.
2. Provide aliases for the actual functions uses on the platforms we support,
and come up with a macro for xf86setjmp() that calls the correct one in
the correct way, probably by first querying a function in the core
server for which way to use.
Just another data point: libGLU compilation on such systems fails also.
libGLU builds OK on the RH 6.2 system I've been looking into this with.
It does do some things with setjmp (using inlined functions).
How? I have been unable to get libGLU to compile on a system that
#define's setjmp friends as macros.
It just works for me on RH 5.2 (glibc 2.0) and RH 6.2 (glibc 2.1) .
It uses inline'd functions:
inline int
mysetjmp( JumpBuffer *j )
{
return ::setjmp( j-buf );
}
Maybe it depends on the g++ version?
I'm not sure why libGLU does this in the libnurbs code. In the libtess
code it just uses setjmp/longjmp directly. (Maybe because the former is
C++ and the latter C?)

I think you're on the right track -- create a macro which invokes different functions depending on the underlying libc. I think we can do it with smaller changes, and no magic GCC pragmas. See attached. The '#pragma weak' was only used as a short cut. To be more portable, dummy functions that FatalError() would be provided in the case where the incorrect one for the OS gets called. As for the other changes, I opted to keep the xf86setjmp entry point rather than use it as the macro name. Although it probably doesn't matter much, this would allow older modules that use setjmp to work in thoses cases where the old xf86jmp_buf size was large enough. Alternatively, we could admit that this is all very OS dependent and #include stdjmp.h in the application, then all we need do is add SYMFUNC's for the actual underlying function names in xf86sym.c (and not for the ones not present on the system) and things should work as expected. Modules built for another OS would fail to resolve the expected symbol and crash as soon as setjmp was invoked. If we run into cases that can't reasonably be handled, then that's our fallback. So far it looks managable.

still problems with xvideo on a laptop with i815 (4.3.0 RC1)
Hello, (my apologies if this is a known problem or a misconfiguration on my side, but:) I recently tried a cvs snapshot from 16 feb. on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 2500 with a i815 chipset). There are still problems with the xvideo extension when running mplayer or xine.

[XFree86] Breaks Red Hat
You've probably already received messages about this before, but just making sure. I run GNU/Linux, and when I updated to 4.2.99.3 on this other Red Hat 8 system, the login manager no longer works. I have to boot into init 3, and was only able to get X to successfully launch after modifying xinitrc. I'm going to switch distros shortly, partly because of this problem (that and RH doesn't support KDE well, and isn't as standards compliant as I'd like), but in the mean time I figured I'd might as well send in this feedback. I know a lot of Linux users run Red Hat, and thought I'd make sure you know that RH's xdm modifications cause problems with XFree86. It may be just upgrading X in general on RH 8, as I've only tried upgrading to a pre-release. If there could be some information regarding this (i.e a work-around or something) on the site, I'm sure it would help a lot of RH users who want to upgrade XFree86. I hope I've helped in some way.

This will let driver bypass int10 initialization and use the legacy vbios

Then do a make install in ati directory.
2. in the Screen section of your config file add

in the corresponding Display SubSection (Depth 24) add

The thing is, if zapping the server works, then it can't be something really bad like a lockup. Maybe the server is running fine, there's 'just' no display? I think that I might be seeing the same problem on a Sapphire Radeon 9000 (detected as a RV250 If) - at least I am seeing similar behavior. The only thing that triggers the lock for me is logging out while running a display manager though, at least I haven't seen any other lockups lately. I haven't had time to nail down if I can avoid it (e.g. by disabling DRI) - that's why I haven't written about it earlier - but the computer _really_ seems dead. Doesn't even answer a ping, and a hard reset is the only cure. [...] - From what I found, the system is effectively dead as well. The freeze seems to lock the I/O subsystem of the kernel. Thus, killing the network, mouse, and keyboard. This isn't consistent with your reportedly being able to zap the server and start another one afterwards though. I think that it is creating a race condition where the system is both shutting down and starting up the card at the same time, effectively grabbing at the card at the same time. Something along those lines possibly. Unfortunately, such problems are very hard to debug, especially when you can't reproduce them...

Re: [XFree86] X11 crashing system with ATI Radeon 7500 QW...
Quoting Gary Greene [EMAIL PROTECTED]: It (my system) hangs whenever I try to logout with the dm. This is the reason [...] That aspect of the problem disappeared this morning when I updated to the most recent CVS snapshot, however logout is still causing difficulties. Check to see if your DM is restarting the x server on each logout, or continuing to use the same X session. The latter has become the default, which caused exactly what you are describing (screen, i/o, sometimes complete system hang on logout) with the Number 9 Revolution cards I was using, as well as some Fujitsu tablets, none of which were using DRI/DRM. The solution was to configure it to kill and create a new X session on each logout. for XDM: xdm-config.kcco:DisplayManager*terminateServer: true for GDM: AlwaysRestartServer=true I don't use KDM, but I'm sure something similiar exists for it as well. This fixed the problems I was having with the Number 9 cards, and with some Fujitsu tablets, running X 4.0 - 4.2.1 (I have not yet had occasion to try 4.2.99.4 or later on any of those devices), so it may be worth a try.

[XFree86] [XFree86(TM) Bug Report] Missing information from the xkb file for logitech cordless desktop pro keyboard
Regarding: Missing information from the xkb file for logitech cordless desktop pro
keyboard
Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
XFree86 Version: 4.2.1
OS: SourceMage GNU/Linux
Area: Xkb config files
Server: not server related
Description:
I have found that some of the key symbols are missing from the
file:/usr/X11/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/inet file, in the section for the logitech cordless
desktop keyboard. I've completed the section, and I'm including it below in case you
want to include it in a future X11 release.
partial alphanumeric_keys
xkb_symbols logicordless {
// Describes the extra keys on a Logitech Desktop Pro keyboard.
name[Group1]= CordLess;
key I5F { [ XF86Standby ] };
key I6D{ [ XF86AudioMedia] };
key I20 { [ XF86AudioMute ] };
key I2E { [ XF86AudioLowerVolume ] };
key I30 { [ XF86AudioRaiseVolume ] };

key I69 { [ XF86OpenURL ] };
key I12 { [ XF86WWW ] };
key I6A { [ XF86Back ] };
key I13 { [ XF86VendorHome] };
};
I've used XF86WWW for a button that is actually marked Webcam, XF86VendorHome for a
button marked iTouch and XF86Community for a button marked Messenger/SMS. The
other additions are pretty self explanatory.
I have this keyboard myself and have tested the bindings to make sure they work :)
I hope this helps you,
Gareth
Repeat By:
Well, if you have one of these keyboards, tell X to load the symbols using
Option XkbRules xfree86
Option XkbModel logicordless
in the XF86Config file. Without my additions, you'll find that some of the hotkeys are
unbound. My additions to the /usr/X11/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/inet file fixes this.

Re: [XFree86] Remote viewing on X?
There are vnc servers which connect to the users existing Xserver and export that instead, such as x0rfbserver. http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/extras.html#x0rfbserver Some linux distros already include this functionality for remote support (lycoris, mandrake) as does KDE3.1 jeb Marc St-Jacques wrote: I was thinking of porting a MS Windows app to X but I hit a snag. Support staff need to know what the user is doing wrong, developpers needs screenshots to correct bugs, and the user could benefit from the support's ability to show and tell what going on. For Windows, I'm using PcAnywhere for remote user support: it enables you to view another person's desktop and act upon it, control their mouse and devices, even teach the user on how to use the apps, etc. (There's are also file transfert support and phone connectivity but those are other issues that can be independently resolved on any other UNIX/Linux system). My question is: can X do that? Can I connect to a user's desktop of act upon it, even interact with the user through it? I know, this is against most of what I've read about X policy. X was designed for ressources sharing and remote system administration and NOT to see your desktop being hijacked by some remote user. But in this new age of client-based support, users, support staff and development team want to see. Executing a different instance of the program for me to view (even remotly) doesn't show me the real user's input. I've tried VNC, but that doesn't work either. VNC only works on the next avaliable display. If your main display is :0, VNC connects directly to :1. So if any knows a solution, I'll be glad to hear it.

Hi, Following Kevin's comments, I compiled hi-res fb out of the kernel (section: console drivers) and now the display is back after Fn+F3 or suspend but ONLY without X running. So I have to quit X, suspend, wake up, startx. Not bad, but could be better. Half-done. I cant use your key combination trick, Kevin, because I cant go back from console to suspended X sesion. Or I dont know how to do it (I press alt+ctrl+F2 to go to console, alt+f1-f5 switch consoles, and alt+F7, which is supposed to bring me back to X, hangs all the display and I dont see nothing anymore. Would someone please suggest some solution? thanks Dominik -- -- Dominik Szczerba, Dr. CO-ME, D-ITET, ETZ F85 ETH, Gloriastr. 35 CH-8092 Zurich http://www.vision.ee.ethz.ch/~domi -- ii swear i never use vi^[:wqZZ -- ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

On Fri, 21 Feb 2003, Alexei Podtelezhnikov wrote: This is a cool bug! I have ATI AiW 128 Pro 16 Mb card with TV-out. This is a Page 128 Pro PF chip, I belive. I get no output on display when I start xfree86 with TV plugged in. Everything works without TV. Let's be fair, switching to virtual console works and I can do work there, so it's not a complete freeze or crush - just no signal in graphics mode with TV in. Let's be fair once more, Windows 98 also behaves funny. Plugging in TV halves the refresh rate or something. Sort of, the card splits the signal into two outputs, to TV and to the monitor, but at least I get the signal. TV requires 800x600 at 60 Hz signal; without TV I get 120 Hz on the monitor at the same resolution. Mike, as far as Red Hat 8.0.94 goes, anaconda fails to recognize the card properly when the TV is plugged in. I recognizes it as Rage 128, instead of Rage 128 Pro. Then, graphical installation doesn't work, etc. Without TV everything works like a magic. Hmm. That is weird because our autodetection tools are keyed of PCI ID. Every PCI ID has one driver assigned to it only, and when that ID is detected, the driver name is looked up in pcitable, and then the driver selection looked up in the Cards database. I can't imagine why you would see Rage 128 one time and Rage 128 Pro another time. Doesn't make much sense to me. One thing though, is that the name is just cosmetic anyway. Any Rage 128 anything chip, get's ultimately assigned to the r128 driver, so you can manually pick any random Rage128 chip instead of using autodetection, and you'll end up with a possibly misnamed card name in your config file, but with an otherwise identical configuration. Your problem is indeed interesting though. Could you put logs and configs somewhere to have a peek at. The logs might show some clues. Thanks, TTYL -- Mike A.

[XFree86] Newbie Xconfiguration problem - graphics card?
Hi, Just tried to install RH Linux 7.0 for the 1st time. Unsurprisingly, had a problem post-install with configuring X-Windows. I think this is due to my graphics card (a nVidia GEForce2 Ultra 64Mb). My machine spec is 1200MHz Athlon, 60Gb HD, Soundblaster Platinum Live! sound card, 256Mb RAM. Resulting problem is that I cant get into X-Windows. I've attached my XFree86.9.log file and the XF86Config-4 file for scrutiny. Sorry it's so long. I'm totally new to this game, and would appreciate any help at all. Oh, and please keep replies as non-technical as possible! Many thanks!!

[XFree86] XFree86 PPC on a PC Matrox Millenium II
[This is the third time I've tried to subscribe. Last two times, the subscribe emails were returned as 'undeliverable' - seems the host I was using could not send the email, so I'm trying my ISP's servers now, slow as they are.] Howdy! I've a question about running XFree86 v4 on a Starmax using an 8MB MMII that was originally intended for use in a PC. I re-flashed the card with a PPC BIOS. MacOS 9 is quite happy to use the card now. Openfirmware gladly uses it, too. Debian 3 uses the card just fine in text mode. However, when running X, the displayed image (root image) is shifted down about 16 scan lines, leaving a green-and-black multi-checkerboard at the top. The hardware mouse cursor is positioned correctly, but since the image displayed is shifted down 16 pixels or so, the registration is wrong. I also lose the bottom 16 or so lines of the display. I've tried everything I know to try to work around this. Is this a programming bug? Is it referencing the card's memory wrong? Any ideas on 'correcting' the problem? Clearly, I could go buy a Mac-specific video card, but since MacOS happily uses this card, I should think XFree86 would, too.

Neal, You don't mention which version of XFree86 v4.x you are running. That's a big missing piece. Maybe try one of the latest snapshots or at least 4.2.0. Alan.

[XFree86] Please Help
Hello, I have a PIII system with RedHat Linux 7.1 (kernel 2.4) installed. Till now i had no problems whatsoever with Linux. I always login as root.My graphics display on Linux has been working fine and I've worked in almost all the desktop environments(GNOME,KDE,Enlightenment).Yesterday on entering KDE i found that the icons floppy,cdrom and Trash were displayed on the top lefthand corner of the screen. They had been there everytime but yesterday i decided to get rid of them. I right clicked on the Desktop and selected Configure Desktop and then changed the Desktop path to /root/empty (an empty directory). Everything went fine until the next time i entered KDE the icons were there again. Just for fun i changed the Desktop path to /root and found that everything under /root got displayed on the screen. Again simply i changed the path to /tmp with the same results. But then i couldnt find the directories under /root. Its then that i understood that changing the path automatically moves the contents of the old path to the new path.So i moved everything under /tmp back to /root. The next time i rebooted and ran startx but an error message appeared saying that there was no directory as /tmp. I couldnt believe it. Anyway i created /tmp an ran startx again. This time the screen just when blank. So i ran Xconfigurator and everything went fine and i got the graphics display. But again startx didnt work. When i ran xinit this was the displayed message Could not init font path element unix/:7100,removing from list! Fatal server error:could not open default font 'fixed' XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0" after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining. When i shutdown Linux this message appears Shutting down xfs [FAILED] Plz help byeBijoy Jacob Thomas
