TR You really need some way to identify the XFree86 server as TR trusted. In Linux today, the only mechanism for doing that is TR suid root. I'm sorry to repeat what I've already said, but it isn't.

Re: More details about a kernel module (by GPfault)
RJ An IOCTL shouldn't have any more overhead than reading or writing to a RJ file... Make this a hundred cycles (and you're probably flushing some caches somewhere). That's 0.1 us on a 1GHz CPU. The machine I'm typing this on can do 2 milllion short thin lines per second. That's 0.5 us per line. If you do one ioctl per short line, you're paying 20% overhead for the ioctl.

Re: Kernel Module? On second thought...
On Fri, 17 Oct 2003, David Fox wrote: I think that the wisest approach is, instead of suggesting a kernel module to the XFree86 folks, you do two things. First, suggest a kernel module to the Linux folks that implements a protocol for accessing the resource you are trying to use. Then you go to the XFree86 folks and suggest a module to utilize that protocol in the X server. That's not any better. Unless someone comes up with a real problem that isn't just theoretical, and a real solution which requires or will work best being in kernel, and then implements it, and puts their money where their mouth is and proves that the solution not only works, but solves a real problem / really does improve performance, etc. they're not going to be taken seriously. You just aren't going to get anywhere with random hypothetical guesses as to what will be a magic performance boost until you crack out the tools to find performance hits, and write the code to fix them. If that can be done in XFree86 itself - great. If it can be done in the kernel, fine. If it can be done in XFree86 without requiring the kernel, and done as well or better in XFree86, even better, as then reliance on a random OS's kernel module is avoided. The kernel folk are going to tell you the same thing - that you dont just go and implement random code in the kernel and hope it fixes something. You find a problem, and you investigate potential solutions to it. If that involves the kernel - fine. Then you come to both the X developers and the kernel developers (of the particular OS kernel) and say something to the effect of: My following attached patch that implements foo in the Linux (or BSD or whatever) kernel, and an appropriate patch for XFree86 which uses this functionality optionally is attached. I've done performance tests on foobedoo in X and have determined it isn't possible to improve the performance of foobedoo without an additional kernel interface. My kernel interface implements this, and does so as cleanly as I could devise. The performance gain in fooblahblah applications is n% so this is definitely worth it and not just a negligible gain. I'm interested on hearing what other developers think of the patch I have created, and what feedback they can give so I can improve it, or try alternate methods. Or something to that effect. As I said before, making random suggestions to use kernel modules abstractly like it's a godsend for performance isn't going to get anyone anywhere, wether their intentions are extremely wll intentioned or not. So to take the whole topic out of the pie-in-the-sky land, and put it on the concrete ground: What _specific_ area of XFree86 performance are you (or anyone else) thinking needs improvement, what solutions have you investigated or even thought about which could improve this performance by modifying XFree86 itself, a driver, Mesa, or other userland code? If you do think the kernel might help for this problem, what steps have you taken to determine if that is truely reasonable, and have you tested your theory? Have you discussed that one small idea with other developers to see what they think about the alleged problem, wether it even really is a problem at all, how important it is, what other solutions there might be, etc. etc. etc. All of this lets stuff things in the kernel, because kernel code is automatically 2 times faster right? stuff gets boring fast.

It seems like the best way to do it would be to still do the check for /usr/X11R6/bin/X, but only if TCP is disabled. You'd have to grep the configuration file to find this out, though. Don't know if that's worth it. Yes, this will probably upset the people out there who don't want xfs to start up if they're not using an X server. As I said above though, people can't have it both ways as we can't read people's minds. The initscript can be disabled like any other system service, so people who install xfs from now on, will have it enabled by default (and it has TCP disabled also by default), and those who don't actually want to use it or need it, can disable it themselves as an end user configuration customization.

Historically we had readme files (that's what is in SGML) for various drivers and other stuff. With the move to modular drivers in 4.0 we added man pages. It doesn't make sense to have the same information in both places. My personal preference is for man pages for drivers, and SGML/XML/whatever for other types of documents. Both types of docs get converted to HTML for our online documentation. They both end up in PS format (and PDF for 4.4), although in the case of the man pages it is one large document with all man pages. xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc/sgml/NVIDIA.sgml This is the file that README.NVIDIA should be generated from.

Further, having two separate options is silly. It is a two-state switch: either the driver tries to use a HW cursor, or it always forces a SW cursor. What happens if you specify both, or neither? I'll bet different drivers come to different conclusions. The presence of both is probably historical. Some drivers have one, some both. The mga driver seems to define both, but only checks one. If you specify neither, the driver should default to whatever works best. That's the driver's call, but it should generally be HW cursor when available. Specifying both would be undefined in general, if both were specifying contrary behaviour. One way to handle the naming more uniformly might be to define the concept of option aliases, with, say, SWCursor aliased to NoHWCursor. That would make the specifying both behaviour well-defined too. It'd be nice to check driver options for consistency from time to time. It'd be even nicer if driver writers checked existing usage before making up new option names. A while ago we started documenting preferred option names and their behaviour in the xfree86/Registry file. There is also an xfree86/Options file that was added later. Back to the original point, the documentation of these options in the driver man pages should match how they are handled by the individual drivers. Specifically, the documented defaults may legitimately be different for different drivers.

If the kernel does not see the key at all, there is nothing the keyboard driver can do. The cases where the kernel complains Can't emulate rawmode for keycode ... while X and scancode -s do not see anything are for keycodes above 255. So far, keycodes have been 7-bit objects, and going to 8-bit is straightforward, but going past 8-bit requires updates to quite a lot of software. So, life is easier if one does not use large keycodes. The remaining codes are all OK. You have a keyboard and pressing a key produces some code.

Re: [XFree86] Cirrus 5446
Eduardo Huertas writes: Hi, I've been having problems configuring a Cirrus Logic 5446 even though your site says it is supported. Even if the site says it is supported it just means the driver knows about the chip in is in prinicple capable of driving this chip. The driver itself is unmaintained and therefore noone has tested and fixed problems lately. I also suspect that noone will be able to due to the lack of HW. I'm using a Gateway 2000 with 64 MB and a Pentium 120 I tried first with Linux Mandrake 9.1 and now I'm trying with FreeBSD 4.8. I've used every combination of resolution with 8, 15, 16 and 32 color depth. I used Option noaccel and Option no_bitblt and the main problem persists: the screen shows in triple a litle piece at top and a litle piece at bottom and almost the whole screen at center. It also shows three pointer mouse. The monitor I'm using is an AcerView 34T. Where can I see a configuration file that works fine? I don't think there is a magic config option that can make the entire thing work. With such ancient hardware the user will have to attempt to fix the problem himself - or trace it down far enough so that somebody else can work on it.

Re: [XFree86] All annoying error in I830WaitLpRing() in some details
David Dawes writes: Does further switching give you a working XFree86 display again? What happens if you exit that XFree86 session and restart XFree86? FWIW, when I was working in the driver, I wasn't able to reproduce any switching-related problems with the hardware I had and the 4.3 version on Linux, even after literally hundreds of switches. On Linux the problems went away when moving the LpRing into the 'stolen memory'. I had to do this for 855 and 865 also to fix this problem. My impression was that when switching back to X the agp memory may get mapped to different physical pages. The chipset didn't like this. I don't recall exactly but I think I also got lockups when terminating and restarting the server completely.

Re: [XFree86] Multihead card recommendation
Both xfree86 cvs and DRI CVS contain both the 2D windowing system and the DRI for 3D. Xfree86 focuses on developing X in general, while the DRI project focuses on 3D. I'm committed mergedfb to DRI CVS. mergedfb will give you 3D on both heads of a dualheaded card. You can also grab nightly snapshots from the DRI here: http://dri.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ Alex - William Gallafent wrote: On Thu, 16 Oct 2003, Alon Weinstein wrote: William Gallafent wrote: ATI Radeon (but not the very newest ones).

(though it *is* working for me right now, I'm wondering if I could get it to work better) I assume you mean you checked out of XFree86 CVS ... naturally, where else can you do a 'checkout' from? :) The answer probably depends on whether or not you use 3D acceleration! As far as I know (and I haven't been keeping myself up to date very well) there is a lot of activity on the dri project improving 3d acceleration for Radeons. If you just want 2D, then XFree86 snapshots or CVS are fine. If you want faster 3D, though, then try http://dri.sourceforge.net/. I think the mergedfb patch (for accelerated 3D) is now integrated with DRI too, again making this look like the easiest option. Do you mean that the DRI CVS holds the complete source for XF86 + DRI?

[XFree86] X crashes while in gnome screen-saver.
Hello. My X is crashing everytime my computer is idle for some time. I can assume it crashes during the time the gnome screen saver is on since it starts after i'm away for a few minutes, though i do know for sure the screen saver starts ok since it only crashes after a while. Attached is my xf86 log. I'm on RH9. This happend using both the 4.3.0 that comes with RH and the CVS version I compiled (4.3.99.14), with or without dual-head on a Hercules 3D Prophet 7000 (Radeon 7000).

Re: [XFree86] Where's the cursor?
If the answer is No it can't be done then what about an Xcursor to XYZ format utility? If I have to I'll paste the icons back onto the dump. Standard X cursors (like the ones in /usr/include/X11/bitmaps) are stored in .xbm format, which is already a standard format. The alpha blended cursors supported by the render extension are in .png, which is another standard format. None of the xbm's in the bitmaps directory looks like the cursor on my screen. The cursors that are being used on my install appear to come from /usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/cursors (I have a RH9 install with KDE as the WM). All of the files in this directory are in X cursor format (they have an Xcur magic number). I can't seem to find the viewable/editable versions of these cursors on the net. Is there a utility that will read the Xcur format and dump just the graphical portions to some viewable format? I could then just paste the cursor image into the visuals I'm using for my documentation.

Re: [XFree86] How to adjust gamma with SiS 740?
Actually I don't know whether I have that 7019 chip since I may not open that laptop housing thanks to warranty reasons, but I think it is since I can plug a TV on that thing. Look into the X log. It will tell you. Actually I'm a silly user and neither know how to look into the X log nor how to examine the driver version. :-( How do you do that? What can I do to get work in progress to get gamma correction supported? It works on Redmond 2000, so it should be possible in Linux also. If I can do anything to help I will do. :-) If it is a Chrontel 7019, there is no way it will work, because the LVDS transmitter does not support it. If it is no Chrontel but a SiS video bridge, gamma correction is supported - and works. What version of the driver are you using?

The Bluecurve cursors don't ship with XFree86, but that ones that do (Whiteglass, Redglass) are in the server tree at xc/programs/xcursorgen/whiteglass/... Render extension cursors are something I personally don't know much about, so I don't know if there's a utility to extract data from the .xcf files. Mark. On Fri, 17 Oct 2003, Randy wrote: If the answer is No it can't be done then what about an Xcursor to XYZ format utility? If I have to I'll paste the icons back onto the dump. Standard X cursors (like the ones in /usr/include/X11/bitmaps) are stored in .xbm format, which is already a standard format. The alpha blended cursors supported by the render extension are in .png, which is another standard format. None of the xbm's in the bitmaps directory looks like the cursor on my screen. The cursors that are being used on my install appear to come from /usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/cursors (I have a RH9 install with KDE as the WM). All of the files in this directory are in X cursor format (they have an Xcur magic number). I can't seem to find the viewable/editable versions of these cursors on the net. Is there a utility that will read the Xcur format and dump just the graphical portions to some viewable format? I could then just paste the cursor image into the visuals I'm using for my documentation. You know what they say a picture is worth, right? ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
[XFree86] kdrive/tinyx and DPMS screen blanking
Hi I've just swiched from a regular X server to tinyx/kdrive (xfbdev on linux 2.2.18, neomagic video), and I can't get DPMS to work like before. At a minimum, I want to be able to call xset dpms force off and have the backlight in my lcd turn off to prolong its life. Here's what I get: # xset dpms force off X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 137 (DPMS) Minor opcode of failed request: 6 (DPMSForceLevel) Serial number of failed request: 9 Current serial number in output stream: 11 #xset -q snip DPMS (Energy Star): Display is not capable of DPMS snip I get the same results with an Xvesa kdrive server. Have I done something wrong, or is this not supposed to work with kdrive? If not, is there some other way to achieve the same thing, maybe at the framebuffer driver level?

this NoAccel bug is reproducible: X11 can blacks after first time i switching
consoles, sometimes - after 10 times, sometimes - even after 20 times.
looks like (available?) agp memory amount determines this... maybe not...
and i think this is a common bug for accel and non-accel setups: it doesn't
matter in the accel setup because the ring buffer bug takes precedence.
and this is common bug for linux and bsd: after the paranoid console
switching, 4.3.0 under linux also blacks its console out. but there is
no ring buffer bug as i mentioned before.
this blacking in non-accel looks like the pipe just deattaching from the
driver (or restoring its state incorrectly), so i can't see anything on the
X's tty while X runs completely normally (i.e. no lockups) and allows me to
switch to completely normally working text ttys.
Does further switching give you a working XFree86 display again?
no. once blacked it cannot be restored to normal operation. until i
reboot the box...
It just occurred to me where I had seen this type of black screen problem
before. It happens when using the vesa driver with an 845G. We work
around this in the i810 driver by remembering the initial video mode
and simply re-initialising it when exiting/VT switching instead of using
the VBE save/restore mechanism. This workaround is only actived for
845G hardware. You could try enabling it for all hardware by changing
this line in i830_driver.c from:
if (!I845G_VBE_WORKAROUND || !IS_845G(pI830)) {
to:
if (!I845G_VBE_WORKAROUND) {

That's not an error. It's simply stating that your X-server doesn't support the RENDER extension (because it's too old, most likely). Mark. On Fri, 17 Oct 2003, Haley Crowe wrote: Hello.

Re: [XFree86] black and white
Perhaps you don't really have kde or the utility you are using is broken or misused? It sounds like you're running without a window manager. The window manager is started from your .xinitrc file or the system's xinitrc file (usually in /etc/X11/xinit). Which is what, I presume, xwmconfig modifies. Mark.
