You have been subscribed to a public bug: The test suite uses the current X server to execute. This is a problem for folk doing interactive builds (and also folk using flymake and similar just-in-time background qa tools).
Using xvfb should permit most X needing code to execute without using the current X server. I *think* xvfb supports GL extensions and so forth, but this needs checking. Tests that need human observation obviously can't be run in this mode; they should run in the current X server [for now]. ** Affects: notify-osd (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Mirco Müller (macslow) Status: Triaged -- test suite uses current X server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to notify-osd in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : dx-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
