Bug#166413: mga driver doesn't set gamma on second screen
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.2.1-3 I added a: Gamma 1.8 to my XF86Config-4 file and upon restart it was obvious that my primary monitor had it's gamma set to 1.8, but the secondary one was still set to 1.0 even though the X log and xgamma claimed it was set at 1.8 Setting any gamma with xgamma on the second screen has no effect. This is on a matrox G450 dualhead with 2 identical ViewSonic P810 21" monitors. -Brett Carter

Bug#166335: Bad default configuration for XftConfig
In some other line of thought, maybe including the following line would help the work between Defoma and Xft: dir "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"

retitle 166335 Bad default configuration for XftConfig
debian-x@lists.debian.org
Package: xlibs Version: 4.2.1-3 Severity: normal Hi, I have been investigation a few problems with Xft, and the first one is the default configuration. Currently, if a font is unkown (and since there is no Sans and Serif and Monospace fonts as used e.g. in Gnome2, or no Helvetica anti-aliased and no fixed antialiased fonts, as used in terminals or Gnumeric), the result is "the first listed font in the list of all available fonts". Which is really really bad, for my first font was Cartwright (try to use Cartwright size 12). I dug a bit around, read the source code of libxft (partly), and found a good way to ensure that fonts would be at least readable when the = environment contains GDK_USE_XFT=3D1. Principle: find reasonable defaults for all font requests. Problem: no font is guaranteed to be present, so we have to put several defaults. Problem: Helvetica and Times are not defaults.

i810 with last 82845 intel card (compaq evo)
Hi list, I've just subscribe to submit you a problem with the last intel video card 82845 G/GL (video card in motherboard). With the last woody package, the i810 didn't work at all on this architecture. Vesa driver work but, we cannot restart X if we don't reboot the O.S. I saw on the xfree mailing archive that only the last version of i810 drv (include in the 4.3 version) work well. A collegue had just installed the last Red Hat 8, with xfree 4.3, and it work perfectly. May be someone (i heard about Branden :-) can include the last i810 driver in the current package. I hope this help Nicolas At last, i will have to find the 4.3 sources and compile it on my box.
