[Fink-beginners] XDarwin & system-xfree86 in full-screen mode

Hi all. Has anyone else experienced considerable screen flicker when using XDarwin and system-xfree86 in full-screen mode? At the moment the desktop background is a dotted grey colour and flickers like crazy. Is there a way of changing the background? One other question, there's a hint at MacOS

Re: [Fink-beginners] XDarwin and Apple's X11

I believe that the problem is that James's instructions were for Apple X11 Beta 0.1, whereas 0.2 has different libs to move: libapplexp.1.1.dylib libapplexp.1.dylib libapplexp.dylib (the latter two are symbolic links to the first). Anyway, have you tried running the Console Utility, to see if

[Fink-beginners] XDarwin and Apple's X11

Some time ago I asked how to get both XDarwin and Apple's X11 to work togeather. James Gibbs gave me a step by step instructions to do so. I did everything that was listed now neither XDarwin and X11 work. My question is how do I get error read outs for these apps so I can find out what is wron

I did some updates through fink, and now I can't get xdarwin to work at all. I've tried rebuilding sawfish, that didn't help. I've tried to rebuild xfree86-base and xfree86-system, but their packages couldn't be found. Here's the log from the console: The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) re

[Fink-beginners] XDarwin crashes after update

Hello all, I just got finished updating from OS X 10.1.5 to 10.2.3, installing the December 2002 dev tools, and following the upgrade matrix for the binary installation (Fink package manager version 0.11.1 distribution version 0.5.1.cvs). As far as I could tell everything went smoothly, but now w

Re: [Fink-beginners] XDarwin and Xmodmap

What error messages do you get from XDarwin? Try running it from a Terminal window with startx -- -rootless (or -fullscreen) so that you can see the error messages. Also, is this your entire .xintirc? On Fri, 2003-01-31 at 04:47, Gianni Abbate wrote: > Well this is my .xintrc file > > > usermo

The best workaround I've tried is to switch to console mode and start X from there: 1) Under System Preferences choose Accounts, then choose the Login Options tab. Under "Display Login Window as", select "name and password" 2) Log out 3) When you get the login window type >console (including

I wonder if fullscreen mode of XDarwin is supposed to be accelerated. While rootless mode window redraws are decent, running in fullscreen opaque window moves are dogslow. Is here a XF86Config to set up a video driver I missed or is XDarwin not using the video hardware directly? cheers -- Jakub
