[XFree86] keyboard switching

2004-02-18 Thread Yan Seiner
I'm a total keyboard newbie; I've been struggling with this for a while. 
 I've read the manpage and the READMEs in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb to no 
avail.

I need to switch between Japanese and US keyboard layouts.  For some 
reason, setxkbmap won't let me use any other layout if I specify the 
'jp' keyboard.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] xkb]# /usr/X11R6/bin/setxkbmap -rules xfree86 -model 
jp106 -layout "us" -option "grp:ctrl_alt_toggle"

[EMAIL PROTECTED] xkb]# /usr/X11R6/bin/setxkbmap -rules xfree86 -model 
jp106 -layout "us,cz" -option "grp:ctrl_alt_toggle" 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] xkb]# /usr/X11R6/bin/setxkbmap -rules xfree86 -model 
jp106 -layout "jp" -option "grp:ctrl_alt_toggle"

[EMAIL PROTECTED] xkb]# /usr/X11R6/bin/setxkbmap -rules xfree86 -model 
jp106 -layout "jp,us" -option "grp:ctrl_alt_toggle" 

Error loading new keyboard description

[EMAIL PROTECTED] xkb]#

It appears that the japanese keyboard has two internal layouts, which 
are toggled.  But I can't get a clear understanding of how this is 
suppsed to work.  setxkbmap doesn't have a verbose or debug option, so I 
don't know *why* it's getting an error.

I'm guessing (and it's purely a guess) that the togle specified on the 
command line is interfering with the internal toggle in the japanese 
keyboard but I can't find anything in the japanese keyboad definition 
files that would switch the mapping

Ideally, I want the keyboard LEDs to show which keyboard is active (say 
with scroll-lock LED) but for now I just need to be able to switch 
keyboards.

TIA,

[XFree86] Undefined symbol in 4.3.0?

2003-03-02 Thread Yan Seiner
I just upgraded to 4.3.0.  Now some software won't run - pan for example
crashes with:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] yan]$ pan
pan: relocation error: /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol:
XkbLibraryVersion
[EMAIL PROTECTED] yan]$

This did not happen with 4.2.99.

Pan crashes, so apparently do some other aps, while galeon, etc. run
fine.  Any way to diagnose/fix this? 

Thanks,

--Yan

[XFree86] randr, Intel 82815, and Xvesa

2003-03-01 Thread Yan Seiner
I've made some headway in using randr.  With Xvesa, you cannot use the
default 640x480 mode that comes up on my system; apparently you must use
8 bit or better depth to get any randr functionality at all.

Now, I am looking to play with the Intel 82815 - apparently, it doesn't
support vesa real well.

Any thoughts/guidance on how to use an i810-type chipset in vesa mode?
Does it work, is it a lost cause?

Thanks,

--Yan

[XFree86] randr woes

2003-02-24 Thread Yan Seiner
I am trying to get reflection working on my system.  To this end, I've
downloaded the latest CVS, compiled it, and built the TinyX servers.

I am using Xvesa for my testing.

The system is a cheap clone, with an integrated Riva TNT chipset.

Here's what I get when I run xrandr:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] yan]$ xrandr -q  
 SZ:Pixels  Physical   Refresh
 0320 x 200( 217mm x 163mm )
 1640 x 200( 217mm x 163mm )
 2640 x 350( 217mm x 163mm )
*3640 x 480( 217mm x 163mm )
 4800 x 600( 217mm x 163mm )
 5   1024 x 768( 217mm x 163mm )
 6   1280 x 1024   ( 217mm x 163mm )
 Current rotation - normal
 Current reflection - none
 Rotations possible - normal left inverted right 
 Reflections possible - X Axis Y Axis

OK, so I should be able to do reflections.  But when I run 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] yan]$ xrandr -x -v
Server reports RandR version 1.1

The screen goes black for a second, then returns to normal.  No
reflection.  No errors, no unusual happenings.

Any ideas on what is happening?  How do I get reflection working?
