[Cooker] OT: SunRay session management

Sun have this really cool feature for their SunRay and similar workstations which allows you to log in to any random terminal with a card; when you pull out your card your session is either suspended or shovelled into /dev/null; when you plug in elsewhere it comes back up again. To do this, the apps must be able to cope with different kinds of screens (resolution and colour depth at least) and changing those on the fly. But as you've exemplified here, not all apps will co-operate. One possible solution is to use XNest, and run the offending app in a `screen size' that it likes, but XNest (even a `rootless XNest!') isn't quite what I have in mind. Xv also provides a useful facility, a not-quite-bitbucket X server, but this is also not what I'm seeking. Think `screen' for X. What I want is an interface layer which sits between the apps and the real X server (or perhaps between the WM and the real server would be better), and in normal circumstances does nothing, uses little or no resources (e.g., calls are vectored straight through to the real server untouched). If you pulled the card from your screen, logged out, or whatever (maybe the ssh tunnel fails), the interface layer would take charge and either SIGSTOP the processes attached through it, route the outbound traffic to /dev/null and fake the inbound traffic, route the traffic to an Xv-like or some combination of the above. When you plugged in again, logged in again, rebuilt your VPN or whatever, you would be able to attach (even at a different screen rez or depth) your existing session and do a refresh. Apps which didn't indicate an ability to handle an environment different to the one they started in would be emulated (e.g. scaled to fit on a smaller or larger screen, run through an XNest-like emulator for differing screen depths. I'm not sure that this would work at all well for OpenGL apps, but OTOH they should in theory be able cope with scaling issues (a change in the surface they're rendering to) much more seamlessly than an app which knows so much more about X directly. The ability to invoke virtual magic on a per-app basis would be very nice (e.g. scale Tower Topler window contents 2x2 or 3x3 on this 2000x1600 screen so I can actually see what's happening, crush down the huge linuxconf intro panel so I can see it all on an 800x600 screen). RandR-type resizing/redepthing would be handled in pretty much the same way as a detach/reattach-at-different-rez. You could `broadcast' an X app or screen with this technology to a bunch of disparate machines for teaching or meeting-style apps, and have most of the depth/size and similar tradeoffs handled the same way that they would be for any other app appearing on each server's desktop. Fitting 2D apps into a proper 3D desktop would be relatively trivial with this technology, you'd just `reattach' the app to an OpenGL surface. Now... is there anything around which does all/most of this already? Any of the 3D WM's, for example, that virtualise a lot of stuff without much of a performance hit? Cheers; Leon

Re: [Cooker] Konqueror locks up X
I've been having the same probmlem on rc1 but have not poasted a bug report because I cannot give any hints on what is going on. This generaly happens when I am draging/droping files from one konqueror window to another, but it's very intermittant. Le Mardi 4 Mars 2003 06:26, Élie Charest a écrit : I don't know if I'm the only one to which this is happening, but it seems that the new combination of XFree86 (XFree86-4.3-1mdk) + konqueror (kdebase-3.1-69mdk) has a nasty habit of locking up X at random intervals. A couple days ago (with an earlier version of kdebase) it wasn't so bad, but now it seems to happen after about 5 minutes of use...This happens when using Konq as a web browser (I'm down to using Mozilla now) and the only way out of it is to ssh in from another box and kill X, who is hogging all CPU power. I'd love to give more info but I'm not sure where to look. Anyone got any pointers on how to identify what package is responsible for this? (sigh)...as much as I enjoy helping out with cooker, I'm starting to long for a stable system... :-)

Here is what I've found: Installing 9.1 RC1 as a clean install, but keeping the existing home directories, Mozilla themes works for existing users, but not newly created ones. Installing 9.1 RC1 as a clean install, without keeping existing home directories, Mozilla themes do not work for anyone, including root. Root gives the message from the cli: grep: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.3b/chrome/locale.alias: no such file or direcotry and after that themes can be changed for root (I'm assuming, though, that root is then using the above directory because the profile in root's directory still does not have a chrome directory. In either of the above scenarios, copying a chrome directory from my Mandrake 9.0 box to any users created on the 9.1 box fixes the problem. So, I'm pretty sure that the problem is with the missing chrome directory and the profile that is created. Joeb

Ainsi parlait Denis HAVLIK : On Mon, 3 Mar 2003, Guillaume Rousse wrote: + So i don't disagree with the voting systement, but with the content overlap. Well, my point on this is well known: In my opinion, our RD should take full responsibility over RPM-voting system, and we should merge the following stuff into one: - contributions - club-contributions - unsupported I wholeheartly agree, i just don't see why unsupported and club-contributions couldn't be merged into contributions, which is the oldest, largest and more advanced package repository sofar. Backporting for stables release, as well as taking care of user input, are separate issues IMHO, that should not be confused. Then RD could impose whatever methods of automatic quality control they have on top of peer-reviewing that's inherent to MandrakeClub, and add automatic rebuilding for different architectures (maybe even for different versions of the distro?). That would IMO be a full win-win situation for everyone, but not everyone shares this view. Automatic rebuilding would definitevely be a giant lap. As it is not a mdk-specific issue, but a generic packaging project concern, i think this could be developped as part of youri project (http://youri.zarb.org). Matthias Saou, the guy behind FreshRPM, would be very interested for instance. Until this happens, we'll have to live with overlap, and I have no choice but to keep building the MandrakeClub volunteers team separately from the RD. Note if club restrict itself on backporting stuff from cooker contrib and main to stable release, and forward new package introduction request to either cooker or PLF (non-free stuff). BTW, i'd be very happy to drop official mdk package we have to backport in PLF sometimes in favour of club. -- All components become obsolete. -- Murphy's Computer Laws n°8
