Re: Xorg 7 on sparc64
I just got Xorg 7.0 by an dist upgrade. My Raptor GFX was not working with xorg 7.0 after the upgrade (blank screen after start of X and no recover of frambuffer console after termination). However there were no big problems with Xorg 6.9. It seems that the glint driver is broken in current testing. As from the logfile the broken driver does not recognize the right size of video ram: 4048 instead of 8192 My solution so far: xorg 7.0 will work together with the 6.9 version of the glint driver. I only copied the old version above the new one. Another problem I found with xorg 7.0: The symlink /etc/X11/app-defaults - /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults is gone. This causes problems with old programs which look there for files. Does anyone have the same problems with the glint driver, or maybe a working setup with xorg 7.0? -- Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Re: Type5 keyboard with kernel version 2.6.x
X.org would not work due to mouse problems. I edit xorg.conf and changed mouse from /dev/sunmouse to /dev/psaux and it is working... /dev/psaux only is a compatibility fallback. The right device for the 2.6.x kernel is /dev/input/mice or /dev/input/mouse* The problem with the PC105 keyboard is, that it has only those keys also present on a regular pc-style keyboard. For the type5/6 sun keyboard, we need a modified layout. I just had a closer look to /etc/X11/xkb and didn't find anything. Or am I missing something?

Type5 keyboard with kernel version 2.6.x
I'm running debian-testing on my Ultra60 together with a 2.6.12 kernel. I wonder how to get the type5 keyboard to work with xorg. What is the right keyboard layout to select? Since for the 2.6.x series kernel the keycodes get translated to a PC-style keyboard, i am using the pc104 layout. This gives basic functionality, however the function block on the left as well as the volume keys produces no keysyms. The sun rules will not work at all, because they rely on untranslated keycodes. Is there any other layout, which supports the type5 keyboard on the 2.6 kernel? Thanks. Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Weird things regarding Xfree and Creator 3d (or why don't Imanage to get Xvideo and DRI working)
DRI has been disabled in current xfree86 for creator3d, IIRC. That's correct. In order to support XAA and the modern font rendering stuff correctly, DRI support had to get turned off on sunffb. I had the same problem with a Creator3D in an Ultra60. Do you know if there is any way to turn on the DRI support again? I was looking through the changelog of the xfree package but found nothing about changes in DRI, and the documentaiton on the Xfree86 site stated it works (is this a debian specific change?). So, is there an option to the sunffb module or some other trick to enable it? The necesary dri driver ffb_dri.so and the kernel modul is installed, at least. There also is a second problem with sunffb: When moving a window on the desktop, sometimes it gets overlayed by a color pattern until the window is redrawn. I can't say if this related to acceleration of the sunffb driver. Is there a way to turn off acceleration for testing? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
