[Xpert]blitting RGB images?
Hi people, Is there any fast way to display RGB images ? I've been searching for a way to do this, in a non-accelerated way, but have been unsuccesfull in finding any. I have been playing with XPutImage, but I read somewhere XYPixmaps are BW, and ZPixmaps is planed RGB. There has to be some way of blitting a simple RGB image to a window, without the use of something like Qt or Gtk, hasn't there? (Main reason for not using Qt et al. is speed.) Thanks! Yuri PS. To me, this really sounds like the Simplest Question Of The Month. And if it is, somebody should really make this info easy to find! ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

They both seem to work with various cards interchangably, and have quirks with some laptops or don't work at all with some laptops. I guess my question is how is support for chipsets split up between them, and why are some ati cards in one server and others in the other? Mach64 and Rage128 are different chip families. I'm surprised that chips of both families should work with the same driver. The video support page is very vague when it comes supported chipsets. It says ...Rage, Rage 128 and Radeon chips by the ati driver. But the rage driver is XF86_SVGA with r128, not ati. If someone could clarify my confusion it would be much appreciated. An important part of the confusion is probably that this sentence sounds like it's from 4.x documentation while the servers you mention are 3.x. Upgrading to 4.x shouldn't be a bad idea. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

What would be the easiest way to get the changes you made to enable the support so I could start from there. The patch is in the RHL 7.3 XFree86 src.rpm package, as well as buried somewhere under my testing dir in my sig. I was just wondering if the following will work. I retreived the patch (XFree86-4.2.0-ati-radeon-pci-drm-enable.patch) from your ftp server and applied it to my XFree 4.2.0 build tree and recompiled. I was thinking than that I'd replace the following files with the new versions in the build tree as shown below : Replaced /lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/char/drm/radeon.o with /xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel/radeon.o Replaced /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so with /xc/exports/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so Replaced /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.o with /xc/exports/lib/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.o After looking at the patches and reading some background on DRI and XFree design this seemed viable. Yes. I as also wondering how bad the reports where on the patch? Did it periodically fail or it just plain wouldn't start? I think 3D clients would lock up after a while. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

Nope, this is 4.2.0 for both cases. --Pat Michel Dänzer wrote: An important part of the confusion is probably that this sentence sounds like it's from 4.x documentation while the servers you mention are 3.x.

[Xpert]XFree86-CVS 4.2.99.1 - Tonight's snapshot - Mouse strangeness..
Hello, I'm having a strange problem with the mouse. When it's on the left side of the screen it jerks but on the right side of the screen it's perfectly fine: It's a Microsoft Intellipoint 1.3A scroll mouse. I set the following mouse config: Identifier Mouse1 Driver mouse Option Device /dev/psaux Option Protocol imPS/2 Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 Option SendCoreEvents Yes Option CorePointer Yes #Option BaudRate 9600 Option SampleRate200 Scrolling works, the mouse works fine but not on the left side of screen. It seems to cause the X server to pause for a few seconds? I have a ATI Radeon All-In-Wonder 7500 64MB DDR Card ATI Radeon 7500 QW (AGP) (ChipID = 0x5157) Any Ideas?

XShmPutImage and XPutImage should behave about the same, no? I've been messing with XPutImage, but for some reason I just can't get it to do what I want. My RGB image is turned into nonsense when XPutImage'ing. What should I use; ZPixmap? In that case, what's the RGB format; ARGB or something else (I need RGB)?
