Benh will not be able to find out how to make it to sleep without some
specs. It is the same story with ATI based one: the sleep started

Xfree86 from unstable
Hello ! I have tried the XFree86 4.3.0-2 from unstable with my iBook 700. It works fine until I tried some dual head setup. First, it clones automagically the display, but the chosen frequency is very low and my external LCD screen displays a distorted image. The console is then cloned too, with the same distortion.

Is it possible to push them in mainstream XFree (or in the unstable branch of Debian) ? Moreover, what is the position of the dri-trunk ? It is versioned 4.3.99.

Good news ! This almost works ! Well, I get a distorted screen (on
the external screen) and no image on the LCD. I have tried with and
without the modeline for my flat panel with no change. It looks like
the screen is interleaved but the horizontal lines are bigger (so it
looks like waves too).
How could I continue ? Do I have to build a specific mode line ?

[ALSA does not support sleep]

Same here. But the ibook is crashing at sleep, not at wake up. And
when it is locked, it warms very fast, so it was really annoying when
you did not notice it.

The big problem is that if you have a running application somewhere
(for example xmms) and that this application is just controlling the
mixer (not playing sound), if you unload ALSA (forcibly or not), the
access to the mixer will just reload ALSA and you will encounter a
fine lock.
Here is what I put in my /etc/alsa/modutils/0.9 to avoid this (do not
forget to erase the first line to avoid debconf backing out the
changes) :
alias snd-card-000 snd-powermac
So, instead of snd-card-0, I put snd-card-000. This fixes mysterious
hangs which happen when ALSA was reloaded because xmms has read the
current values of the mixer (I think). This change is also useful if
ALSA is not able to initialize correctly the mixer. You can add the
following lines at the end of the file :
pre-install snd-powermac modprobe dmasound_pmac ; rmmod dmasound_pmac
dmasound_core
post-remove dmasound_pmac rmmod dmasound_pcore
Now, you can unload alsa using "/etc/init.d/alsa force-stop". I am not
using pmud any more (but pbbuttonsd instead), but this is a relatively
trivial change to your pwrctl-local file.
I have also modified /etc/init.d/alsa to put "|| true" after the two
"kill" lines :
printf "(terminating processes) "
kill $procs_using_sound || true
sleep 2
kill -9 $procs_using_sound || true
But, it was when I was searching how could I put this damn ibook to
sleep without crashing the whole system and I am not sure any more
this was useful. However, I don't want to try without them (in any
other script, I would say this is absolutely not useful, but this can
add some magic in this one ;-) ).
With these changes, my ibook successfully goes to sleep every
time. Sometimes, xmms is killed (when it was querying the mixer) and
sometimes not. But this is a light side effect.

"full featured" XF86Config-4 for ATI M6
Hello ! Here is my current XF86Config-4. It features different layouts allowing single head, dual head, cloning mode, etc. and you have to choose one (by default, this is the first one). To choose a layout, just add '-layout "Dual"' (for example) to the X server (not to startx if you use startx : "startx -- -layout ..."). For this to work on an iBook 2 with ATI M6 (not tested with M7), you need this package : hi xserver-xfree86-dri-trunk 2003.08.07-1The XFree86 X server [DRI trunk] It is available with the following lines in your sources.list : deb http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-trunk-sid/ ./ deb-src http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-trunk-sid/ ./ Here are the different layouts (from the simplier to the more complex one) : - Single. This a single headed layout, just the more usual one. Only the internal flat panel is used. Since DDC is broken with a M6, you need to add a modeline (you can get it with fbset -x on a console). This layout uses the framebuffer device. - Cloning. This layout provides two heads in cloning mode. The overlay is on the external head (playing video on the flat panel is not possible using XVideo, it will only be displayed on the external screen). Since DDC is broken, MonitorLayout and following options are used to tell what kind of external screen is attached. The current options are suitable for any screen able to do 1024x768 (and so for a videoprojector). But the refresh rate is very low (60 Hz), so it is not very comfortable to work with. This mode is aimed at presentation with a videoprojector. The framebuffer is not used any more. - Dual. This layout provides true dual head mode. XVideo extension can be used on the internal panel _and_ on the external screen (not both at the same time). DRI is disabled on both display (don't know if there is a work around). Again, the refresh rate is low since I use this mode for presentation with a videoprojector too. - Dual 1280x1024. Same as above, except the second head uses 1280x1024 mode. You have to provide a correct modeline (this one is for an Eizo Flexsan L685 in analog mode). See this URL to generate such a modeline : http://koala.ilog.fr/cgi-bin/nph-colas-modelines> You can use any resolution you want, even 1024x768 at higher rates than in the precedent setup (just name it 1024x768hi for example). You may add more layouts. I am working on a snippet of code to allow to select the wanted layout from GDM. Make sure that the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 is not managed by debconf (removes the lines about debconf at the beginning), otherwise, your changes will be wiped out at next upgrade.

It is useful if you want to be able to switch between a single headed config and a dual headed one. Your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 needs to have layout sections like this : , | Section "ServerLayout" | Identifier "Single" | Screen "Screen Alone On DFP" | InputDevice "Laptop Keyboard" | InputDevice "Configured Mouse" | EndSection ` Then, your /etc/gdm/gdm.conf needs to contain one line like this one : , | command=/usr/X11R6/bin/X -layout "Single" -deferglyphs 16 -nolisten tcp ` The parameter layout must be present and must be enclosed by quotes. The script is here : http://www.crans.org/~bernat/layoutchooser.py> It needs Python and python-gtk2. The code is commented in French, sorry, mail me if you want some hints on how it works. The paths are hard coded into the code, look at it before using the script. I have put the following lines in /etc/gdm/Init/:0 (which must be set executable) : , | #! /bin/sh | | xautolock -cornerdelay 1 -cornerredelay 3599 -secure -time 3599 \ | -locker "/etc/gdm/layoutchooser.py" -cornersize 10 \ | -corners & | | exec /etc/gdm/Init/Default $* ` The script is then launched when you leave the mouse for one second into one of the corners. Please, save your /etc/gdm/gdm.conf before testing (the script saves it but, in doubt...).

Well, this "BootXCD" is a great solution for us not having Mac OS X
any more on the hard drive. I wanted to update my Airport card and

without installing it). I have googled but have not found anything

mplayer and {x,c}vidix
Hello !
Could some of you on the list try to use mplayer with "-vo xvidix"
option with X and "-vo cvidix" on a console. On my iBook (M6), I got a
curious horizontal interlacement in the first case and an image
displayed below the displayed characters in the second case (moreover,
I don't know how to get fullscreen in the second case, without
software scalers).

The mach64 source does not mention endian issue whereas the radeon one seems to handle it. Maybe there is something wrong but I don't know how to search. :) -- BOFH excuse #152: My pony-tail hit the on/off switch on the power strip.

I use 24bpp and since with the console only 8bpp works, it is a good idea to test. -- Don't use conditional branches as a substitute for a logical expression. - The Elements of Programming Style (Kernighan & Plaugher)

I use CONFIG_PREEMPT and got random segfaults ont some apps, including X. My RAM is not full (well, it is but most of it is cached memory).

At first, I have the same impression with mplayer. I am not able anymore to read some video at full speed and I notice that "rendering" can take up to 15% of the proc (compared to Vidix).

TiBook and Dual Head
Hello ! I am trying to use dual head on a tibook but it does not seem to work. I have tried to adapt my XF86Config-4 (from my iBook) with no success. I have tried some config files on the web, no success (the second head is put to sleep, but there is a signal). Here is the revelant part of lspci : 00:10.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 Lf [Radeon Mobility 9000 M9] (rev 01) I use latest Michel's X server. Anyone has a working confil file for the same config (even just cloning) ? -- /* * Should be panic but... (Why are BSD people panic obsessed ??) */ 2.0.38 /usr/src/linux/net/ipv4/ip_fw.c
