Re: help with Xorg (Adam Jackson)
Is there any window manager like fvwm, openbox, lxde, kde, gnome? What you do next depends on what you're running because each OS has its own package manager, its own way of fetching and installing things. Apt-get install works for Debian, Rasbian, maybe Ubuntu. Some have Yum, there's about nothing in common. If you have it (Debian/Raspbian/Ubuntu) doing: dpkg-query -l > somefile.txt in an xterm window will get you a list of what's installed. It's pkg_info under OpenBSD. Sounds like X is working but there's not much else.

Hi Alan, definitely this is not a normal installation, because all the drivers goto /opt/X11R7 in a isolate environment. after type startx i got a black desktop, but i am able to open a terminal, to create folders and navigate by the system through the folders, but that i want to do is to have the same environment like Xorg does On 8/2/2017 4:21 PM, Alan Corey wrote: Wow, sounds like not much is installed, like this wasn't a normal installation.

Re: help with Xorg (Adam Jackson)
Basicly you need a .xinitrc that starts what you want. normally you have a programm called xinit that does everything. So far i understand you have a restricted environment but a working xterm. xterm is good, now you can try to start a windowmanager like "twm" in xterm. That will enable you to move to window around. The next step is to create you own .xinitrc and run it. See "man xinit" how to continue. re, wh Am 02.08.2017 17:46, schrieb Perez Rodriguez, Humberto I: > Thanks, in fact i dont know to much about xorg and your help here > always is welcome :) > > after run it the both commands with the same user i am now able to see > in a little white box the terminal with xterm, but now the big question > is how can i display the windows, wallpapers and everything else like > xorg does by default ? > > > > On 8/2/2017 7:41 AM, Thomas Lübking wrote: >> On Tue, Aug 01, 2017 at 02:43:55PM -0500, Perez Rodriguez, Humberto I >> wrote: >>> >>> after try the command below, i get the following error : >>> >>> xterm: Xt error: Cant open display: :0 >>> >>> >>> as a comment, i've tried as well with "export DISPLAY=:[0-6]" without >>> success :( >> >> No offense, but you didn't happen to switch back to the VT from where >> you launched X11 and interrupted that process in order to enter the >> xterm command, did you? >> IOW: Is the X11 server still running on another VT when you tried this? >> ps aux | grep Xorg >> >> Otherwise: Did you run both commands as the same user? >> >> The number behind the colon btw. does not refer to the VT. >> >> Cheers, >> Thomas > > ___ > xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support > Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg > Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg > Your subscription address: %(user_address)s ___ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s

help with Xorg
Hi : i am trying to build xorg-xserver in a isolate environment on Ubuntu 16.10 64bit, to be exact i am building the drivers into /opt/X11R7 output from /opt/X11R7 drwxr-xr-x 2 gfx gfx 4096 Jul 27 15:42 bin drwxr-xr-x 2 gfx gfx 4096 Jul 27 15:42 etc drwxr-xr-x 15 gfx gfx 4096 Jul 27 15:42 include drwxr-xr-x 11 gfx gfx 4096 Jul 27 15:42 lib drwxr-xr-x 3 gfx gfx 4096 Jul 27 15:42 libexec drwxr-xr-x 11 gfx gfx 4096 Jul 27 15:42 share drwxr-xr-x 3 gfx gfx 4096 Jul 27 15:42 var and in order to xserver-xorg takes all drivers and dependencies from there, i've create the following file : $ : cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf Section "Files" ModulePath "/opt/X11R7/lib/xorg/modules" EndSection and i've modified the following file as well : $ : cat /usr/bin/X #!/bin/sh # # Execute Xorg.wrap if it exists otherwise execute Xorg directly. # This allows distros to put the suid wrapper in a separate package. basedir=/opt/X11R7/bin #basedir=/usr/lib/xorg if [ -x "$basedir"/Xorg.wrap ]; then exec "$basedir"/Xorg.wrap "$@" else exec "$basedir"/Xorg "$@" fi after do that, when reboot the system, tty7 appears as disabled and only i have access to tty1-6, so in tty1 i type the following command in order to run "Xorg" command # chown gfx.gfx /dev/tty[0-7] #chown gfx.gfx /dev/dri/card0 #chown gfx.gfx /dev/fb0 #chown gfx.gfx /dev/input # usermod -a -G input gfx then when i run the command "Xorg" i got always a black screen, please see relevant messages in the Xorg.0.log (04:54 PM) [gfx@gfx-desktop] [xorg]$ : cat Xorg.0.log | grep "(EE)" (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

need help with Xorg reinitialization ?
i have this problem with the sound on several linux systems with the same hardware, i think the problem is in the audio chip, if it works for more than 12 hours the sound distorts making it really unpleasant, when i used SDL to manage audio, the only solution i got is to reinitialize the audio every 6 hours or so, this makes the bug disappear. now i Chrome display data, and the same audio distortion happens in a browser (chrome under X) playing audio files. i could not reach the audio subsystem to make it initialize again. the problem fixes itself if i switch to console (control alt f1), then back to X making me think switching back to X makes chrome (or x?) reinitialize whats needed i did a search on google but didnt find any answer so the real question is: what happens when i switch from X to console, and back is there an event to which chrome responds, can i simulate this situation with a program ? what do i need to send could you please point me in the right direction thank you in advance, Borislav Lukanov ___ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
