remote desktop /session bus woes...(was Re: problem with opengl (glxgears) running on cygwin ....)

This should be fixed in mesa-demos-8.1.0-2. FWIW, I tried another X server...VcXsrv?... Same with that program. I tried several, got some that worked, most didn't. Of the few that worked 'well' remotely, they were variations on the glgears... got about 400-500 FPS -- and about low 300's MB/s in bandwidth consumed... that sounds about right... but I think there are other problem in trying to get a remote desktop to work now... everything wants to connect to the session bus -- and many progs won't start if they can't. So if I can't figure out a way to get that to work, remote usage is left at a fairly primitive level despite the high frame rates on a 3x4 window... ;-) One of the demo progs said it required opengl 2.1 .. my card has V4.something. well above 2.1, so that seems like another latent problem. Will look for the fixed version ... thanks for the news... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
