[ANNOUNCE] xf86-input-libinput 0.27.1
Just one bugfix, a regression introduced by the new property handling in 0.27.0 caused the property to toggle left-handed to not be initialized on all devices that required it.

Unsupported locale errors in XOrg
Hello,
I'm getting "unsupported locale" warnings and crashes when running
programs such as xterm or dmenu on a clean install of Ubuntu 17.10
Examples:
warning: no locale support
Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Here's the offending line from dmenu's source code:
if (!setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "") || !XSupportsLocale())
fputs("warning: no locale support\n", stderr);
I'm not 100% sure but I was told that this looks like an issue in XOrg.
Additionally, the problem disappears if I change my default locale to
en_US.UTF-8 instead of en_HK.UTF-8, which suggests that the issue is
specific to my locale.
Here's the output of running locale:
LANG=en_HK.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en
LC_CTYPE="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_HK.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
Here's the output of running locale -a:
C
C.UTF-8
en_HK.utf8
en_US.utf8
POSIX
Would appreciate any pointers in understanding this issue.
Prashanth

XRandr adaptive mirrored screens
Hi Xorg Team ! I'm the network administrator of a French High school and I'm face of a new problem since the integration of XRandr in Debian Stretch. Many of my Debian Stretch stations are teacher's desktop. Each of them are connected to a screen and to an interactive projector. I would like that the displays are mirrored with the best common resolution. But the problem is that : -> Not all station are the same model. So XRandr does not give always the same name to the outputs. -> The screen and the projector are not always connected to the same display ports (VGA, HDMI, ... ) -> The screen and projector sizes varies. So Xrandr don't always select the same resolution by default. -> Not all graphic cards support the same display resolutions. So actually I need to make a custom Xorg config file for all my stations individually. For each station : -> I need to identify the output's name of the screen and of the projector -> I need to list the supported resolutions for each output -> I need to choose the best match resolution -> And finally I need to I add a config file like this : Section "Monitor" Identifier "HDMI-1" Option "Primary" "true" Option "PreferredMode" "1280x1024" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "VGA-1" Option "Position" "0 0" Option "PreferredMode" "1280x1024" EndSection Is there a way to make Xorg mirror screens by default and choose itself the best resolution ? Ideally a config file that I can deploy in all my teacher's station. If someone can help me ! Thanks !

Re: Dual monitor problem
Thank you to both Michal Srb and Marius Gedminas for taking the trouble to reply to my query and for their suggestions. I tried Michal's suggestion, but the same strange behaviour occurred on the laptop's display when the edited script ran without the external monitor plugged in. Marius's suggestion to adjust the monitors configuration was unfortunately beyond my limited skills. I've now run up the white flag on the startup script idea. Instead, I created a custom launcher with an icon that resides on my top panel. Now, when I boot up with the external monitor connected, I just click on the icon and it runs: xrandr --output eDP1 --off. At least I've reduced the steps needed to one simple one.

I'd > like to automate the process. GNOME should already automate that. It remembers your settings for each set of connected monitor configurations, and when you plug in or unplug a monitor, it restores them. The configurations themselves are stored in ~/.config/monitors.xml. The process responsible for applying them on hotplug/unplug events is gnome-settings-daemon. (Ubuntu might have a unity-settings-daemon which is a fork of an older version of gnome-settings-daemon, but it does the same thing.) There's a way to turn that autoconfiguration off, which might explain why it's not happening for you. It's a setting somewhere in dconf/gsettings, but I don't remember exactly where.
