ANN: xterm patch #257
Patch #257 - 2010/4/22 * correct ctlseqs.ms description of OSC 17 and OSC 19 (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta). * corrected logic for menuLocale resource; the setlocale function returns the original locale only when querying. * improve filtering of translations resource, narrowing the scope of the alwaysUseMods to address only the translations that would cause a key to be sent to the host (report by Andrew Gaylard). * change default value of menuLocale resource to C, to work around longstanding [261]Xorg bug. * modify handling of scrollKey feature to ignore XON/XOFF keys. * implement scroll-lock feature. * revise memory allocation in UTF8toLatin1() to fix an out-of-bounds index (Mandriva #54531). * compute value for first wide-character rather than assuming it is 256, fixes problem with -cjk_width introduced in patches [262]242 and [263]249 (report by Thomas Wolff). * improve configure script: + corrected check for _XOPEN_SOURCE for OpenSolaris. + when possible, add rpath option for libraries in unusual places + add configure option --disable-rpath-hack to control whether the rpath option can be added. * modify AllocateTermColor() to separate initialization from control sequences, fixing problem from [264]patch #254 changes where enabling allowSendEvents resource prevents setting cursor color on command-line (Debian #572928). * amend logic from [265]patch #185 to not reallocate cell-array if processing ESC % G to switch from UTF-8 if already in ISO-8859-1 character set (report by Michael Koehne). * fix to avoid calling XmuInternStrings() with zero count (report by Johan Bockgård). * fix build when --disable-ansi-color configure option is used. * fix build when neither OPT_TCAP_QUERY or OPT_TCAP_FKEYS is defined (patch by Matthieu Herrb) -- Thomas E.

Intel Pineview screen rotation = S L O W
Hello everyone, I've got a new netbook with an Intel Atom N450 and a Pineview integrated GFX controller. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 with Xorg 1.6.4. As it's a tablet/convertible, I'd like to be able to switch the screen orientation from time to time. This does work find with xrandr, however, any rotation except normal (i.e., left,right, and inverted) is very slow (e.g, Firefox is barely usable anymore). An entirely non-scientific test with glxgears gives a framerate of 1190 FPS in normal mode and around 250 in any rotated mode. Is this to be expected, or is there a glitch somewhere? Thanks, Florian -- 0666 - Filemode of the Beast ___ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg

Also not that you must have the correct tool chain to build. This wiki will give you a good idea of what is needed: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/RequiredPackages From the Git repository Note: X.Org has moved all currently maintained modules to the Git repository. See the GitPage for more information and UsingGit on how to use Git. The build.sh script is provided in the xorg/util/modular repository. It provides a --clone flag to get the modules required. To get the initial checkout of all modules, run: $ cd /tmp/src $ git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/util/modular util/modular $ ./util/modular/build.sh --clone -a -n /tmp/modular This will clone all modules into the right directory structure. The -a flags tells the script to skip automake and hence the build will fail. The -n flag tells the script to continue regardless. Both flags together will result in a clean checkout of every module. Alternatively, run the above command without the -a and -n flags and the script will build everything into the prefix provided. ___ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg

Linux Plumbers Conference: Call for Tracks
Linux Plumbers Conference 2010 Call for Tracks This year, Linux Plumbers Conference will take place in Cambridge, MA on November 3-5, 2010. Unlike more traditional conferences, the Plumbers conference is not structured around presentations of completed work, or problems and solutions confined to a single subsystem or layer of the Linux ecosystem. Rather the Plumbers Conference encourages BOFs type meetings and brainstorming sessions where technical experts from different areas and leaders in the Linux and Open Source world can get together and discuss how to make progress towards the solution of interdisciplinary multifaceted problems spanning multiple components of the Linux system. In some sense, the Plumbers Conference is really more of a workshop. The program committee for the Linux Plumbers Conference is looking for proposals for the tracks that will be run during the Plumbers Conference. To do that, we are looking for problem statements: things that could be improved in Linux that cross multiple interfaces or other project boundaries (if you can solve it yourself inside a single project, please, don't let us stop you --- get hacking!). We are looking for problems that require collaboration and face-to-face communication across multiple teams and open source projects. These problems could apply to anywhere Linux is used: Linux on the Desktop, Linux on Mobile devices, Linux on servers, etc. For example, if in order to get better performance, we need to get better information about low-level devices from the kernel, and that needs to be utilized by file system utilities, and the user needs to be able to involved by exposing options at the UI level in control panels and distribution installers --- the Plumbers conference might be a great place to get everyone in the same room for half a day to solve this particular problem. Along with your problem statements or track ideas, please list the projects which and/or key individuals who ideally should be present, and who might be a good person or persons to run such a conference track. If you have any thoughts or contributions, you can either * discuss them on this Linux Weekly News page: http://lwn.net/Articles/lpc2010-cfi/ * add the proposed topic to the Topics wiki page: http://wiki.linuxplumbersconf.org/2010:topics * send e-mail to: lpc-plann...@linuxplumbersconf.org Many thanks for helping to make Linux an even better platform!

Re: no screens found problem
2010/4/20 Gökçe ÖZDEMİR gozde...@aselsan.com.tr: Hi, We are using Montavista PRO 5.0.24 on our Advantech's AIMB-766 model target PC. Its chipset is Intel Q35. Graphics module is embedded on this chipset (Intel GMA 3100) We would like to run X11 to have graphic support, but when we try startx command it is giving the following error (whole log also attached) (EE) No devices detected. Fatal server error: no screens found Montavista PRO5.0.24 has X Window System Version 6.8.2 Release Date: 9 February 2005. And it seems since this is an pretty old version it does not have the support for our graphic card module. We tried configurations for generic VESA and VGA by using xorgconfig command but get the same error. What do you suggest? Can we add our graphic card support to current X11 version of our operating system, how? Or shall we update the x Window system of the Montavista, and how? The intel q35 is much too new to work on xorg 6.8.2. Probably your best bet is to get the vesa driver working. Read the output of the log file to ensure that the Device section referencing Driver vesa is being used. You can also try running the server with -logverbose n where n is greater than 3 to get some more information. Updating to a newer Xorg might be a challenge, but newer releases of the intel driver do support that graphics hardware. -- Dan ___ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg

Obviously I've recompiled all the drivers I'm usingt, or X wouldn't work at all...) The backtrace differs depending on whether auditing is enabled or not. With auditing on, we are hit with a segfault here: #0 0x7f7e06148985 in _xstat () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x7f7e061198d0 in __tzfile_read () from /lib/libc.so.6 #2 0x7f7e06118c8a in tzset_internal () from /lib/libc.so.6 #3 0x7f7e06118df9 in __tz_convert () from /lib/libc.so.6 #4 0x7f7e06117439 in ctime () from /lib/libc.so.6 #5 0x004533c8 in AuditPrefix () #6 0x00453956 in VAuditF () #7 0x00453add in AuditF () #8 0x0043e5c6 in CloseDownClient () #9 0x00443af8 in Dispatch () #10 0x00420dc5 in main () With it off, I see this instead: Program received signal SIGTERM, Terminated. 0x0042904c in FreeClientResources () (gdb) bt #0 0x0042904c in FreeClientResources () #1 0x0043e4c2 in CloseDownClient () #2 0x00443af8 in Dispatch () #3 0x00420dc5 in main () which might look like normal termination, except that FreeClientResources() of course does not contain an exit(), and the console is still unusable. I suspect a double-free() somewhere, and/or heap corruption. Nope. This bug only appears with KMS enabled; it does not appear in 2.6.32.10 (when termination happens normally, with only [ 71.267834] Unpin not necessary for 88033d66dc00 ! in the kernel log) but does appear with current tip; seen with 2.6.34rc3 and later (i.e. as soon as I upgraded the X server). I've bisected the kernel half of this. This is introduced by a commit predating 2.6.32's release but integrated in the 2.6.33 merge window: commit ed160143c6967e89aee05b0685e73c4103bb3e38 Author: Alex Deucher alexdeuc...@gmail.com Date: Tue Dec 1 14:12:14 2009 -0500 drm/radeon/kms: add tv standard property to tv connectors Lets user select tv-standard. The property was there, just not hooked up. Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher alexdeuc...@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie airl...@redhat.com so I guess perhaps this is not a kernel bug, but merely a bug in the TV_STD parts of xf86-video-ati --- but I didn't upgrade that, merely recompiled it; xf86-video-ati master + xorg 1.7.5 + kernel 2.6.34-tip works fine, as does xf86-video-ati master + xorg 1.8.0 + kernel 2.6.32. It's only the combination xf86-video-ati master + xorg 1.8.0 + kernel 2.6.32 that crashes on termination. So maybe it *is* a kernel bug, or a latent bug in the driver causing memory corruption inside the X server only when the kernel and X server are new enough. (But this is starting to feel a bit unlikely to me.) In a few days I'll bisect the X.org half of this, since 1.7.5 doesn't crash on exit no matter which kernel I'm running. The last time I tried to bisect the X server it was... painful. Let's see if it's any easier nowadays...
