I am using your deb's for XF4.0.1 - and they are working excellent. :) However, one thing bugs me. The xlibmesa3 package does not include libGLU - and all the other packages in Woody which provide libGLU conflicts with it. So I'm in a no-win situation - I need your version because it has the DRI strings. (And I really prefer to have a full-debianized system - much more tidy) So my question is obviously if you are going to include libGLU in you package and eventually when that will be? Apart from that, my X is as perfect as it can be - keep up the good work! :) Cheers, Tore - End forwarded message - -- G.

Questions about r128 server
I should probably be asking these on newbie or xpert, but as this list has so much less volume I thought I would try here first. I am running a 2.4.0-test9 woody system with whatever the latest Debian XFree86 4.0.1 packages happen to be. I have a Dell Inspiron 5000e with the ATI Rage 128 Mobility LF (AGP) video card. As this is a laptop, I am using a flat panel display. For the most part X works well, but there are a few things which are bugging me: Is it possible to enable DPMS, or whatever mechanism allows for turning off the screen? I have 'options dpms' in my Monitor section, but I am just told 'Option dpms is not used' when X starts. DPMS is detected on external displays when I connect one, so I know the driver supports it. I can output X to external display by hitting the CRT/LCD toggle button on the laptop. Is there a way to have X use the external and the LCD display? I am not looking for Xinerama or anything fancy, I would just like both displays to show the same thing. Feel free to ignore these questions if you feel they do not serve the interests of debian-x. -- Jeff Lessem.

The dpms option allows the DPMS (Energy Star) parameters to be set. The option can take up to three numerical values, or the `force' flag followed by a DPMS state. The `force' flags forces the server to immediately switch to the DPMS state specified. The DPMS state can be one of `standby', `suspend', or `off'. When numerical values are given, they set the inactivity period before the three modes are activated. The first value given is for the `standby' mode, the second is for the `suspend' mode, and the third is for the `off' mode. Setting these values implicitly enables the DPMS features. A value of zero disables a particular mode. HAND Frank aka Myth pgpIvNuyRuEHR.pgp Description: PGP signature

In your message of: Fri, 27 Oct 2000 11:22:26 PDT, you write: % man xset -dpms The -dpms option disables DPMS (Energy Star) features. +dpms The +dpms option enables DPMS (Energy Star) Thanks for the response, but unfortunately it is a bit more complex than that. xset +dpms runs without an error, but xset q continues to report not capable of DPMS and something like xset dpms force off will fail with an error. -- Jeff Lessem.

The magic thingy you need is in your XF86Config file, add Option DPMS on to your Monitor section. Unfortunately, XFree 4's documentation is woefully...lacking.

Re: Questions about r128 server
* Joshua Shagam [EMAIL PROTECTED] [001027 14:32]: The magic thingy you need is in your XF86Config file, add Option DPMS on to your Monitor section. While this is nicely documented in the XF86Config manpage, it won't solve the original author's question. I suggest to the original author (whose name I have trimmed without thinking) that the post should be directed towards [EMAIL PROTECTED] It is a driver-level question, beyond the intents of the debian-x list (the debian packaging of X4) -- I don't mind these questions coming up on this list, mainly since *someone* in debian needs to know some of the wierdness of X4 in order to help the other users (on debian-user) in the near future. But, I think it is now obvious this list doesn't know why the OP cannot get their Dell to go to DPMS mode, when the DPMS option is on, and xset dpms is used to tell it to go to sleep. :( OP -- two last thoughts: try xset dpms 10 0 0 as well as xset dpms 0 10 0 and xset dpms 0 0 10. Maybe the dell screen just doesn't understand one or more of the sleep states. Or, try checking the source code for your driver modules. Maybe they documented in there their choices. Best of luck. -- ``Oh Lord; Ooh you are so big; So absolutely huge; Gosh we're all really impressed down here, I can tell you.''
Question about dexter
(Please CC: me as I'm not on this list). Hi all. I was helping a friend of mine install the X4 debs, and he noticed that dexter depends on dialog, but xserver-common, which gives dexter doesn't require it. Shouldn't it? (Or, dexter split off into another package, suggested by xserver-common, which depends on dialog). -- Tom Rini (TR1265) http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/
