Bug#206900: xserver-xfree86: blew my config away
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.2.1-10 Followup-For: Bug #206900 The upgrade to 4.2.1-10 blew away my whole configuration really. Firstly it asked me a few additional questions (not the whole lot), then wrote the basic XF86Config-4 which of course didn't include my dual head setup etc. If I now run dpkg-reconfigure, it asks all the questions again and then says that nothing was written because XF86Config-4 has been customised. Fine, but why didn't it recognise that it was customised during the upgrade, and why does it need to ask the questions if it's been customised already? I have no NEWS.Debian file in the directory you mentioned.

This don't bring us much, it is hanging in glint_wait, which is a macro
waiting for space in the fifo, and since the space never comes, it
waits forever. Same diagnostic as before. The pipeline is deadlocked,
but i don't know why. Strong suspisions of a hardware problems, the
hardware cannot be all that new after all. But maybe there is some
behavior that makes this appear more often or something such, i don't
know. Overheating of the graphic chip or failing powersupply (either on
the board or the agp power lines) might be potential culprits.
I will try to build the full 4.3.0-0pre1v1 (BTW, why both pre1 and v1,
is this not doing double usage) with the glint debug option enabled, so
you can run the non-loadable server in gdb too. I need to free space
again on my disks (or buy a new disk) though.
Friendly,
Sven Luther

Bug#207481: xserver-xfree86: proposed debconf overhaul
Package: xserver-xfree86
Severity: wishlist
Okay, here is what I would change in xserver-xfree86.config.
- xserver-xfree86/config/device/use_fbdev:
check for existance of /proc/fb before asking the question about
framebuffer support.
- If it does not exist, do not ask the question and set use_fbdev to
false.
- If it does exist, read it, and if
- the contents matches nvidia, do
not ask the question and set use_fbdev to false.
- otherwise set default to false but ask the question
- To the video card section: I suggest setting SWCursor option
by-default, since some drivers show broken mouse pointer on certain
video cards.
- on every arch except of sun and sgi set the default of
xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/rules to xfree86. This is
just guessing but should be okay for the majority of the users.
- get the first part /(\w\w)_../ of LC_CTYPE or LANG and set the
default for xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/layout
- based on this setting, guess the layout most typical for the target
country and set as it as default, then ask the question
- based on the layout, set a default for
xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/variant and ask the
question.
I suggest to ask people on debian-i18n to send some data about the
settings that majority of the users in their country uses. For
example, in de it is popular to set the nodeadkeys option. Russians
may want to set a second keymap in layout, to us,ru and a
grp:grp:alt_shift_toggle (or some other toggle) option to rotate
the keymaps. We should just ask them on -i18n, code this settings
into one mapping table and insert them
- ask a question about advanced keyboard options with defaults from the
typical configuration selection mentioned above
- the mouse config is mostly okay, I just wish to see a final sentence
in every description:
If unsure, choose to emulate the 3rd mouse button.
If unsure, enable the Zaxismapping.
- For mouse autodetection: if gpm is running (test -e
/var/run/gpm.pid), then open /etc/gpm.conf and source it,
if $repeat_type exists, set
xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/port to /dev/gpmdata
and xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol to the
$repeat_type value (eg. mapped from the gpm syntax to X syntax).
Now the most interessting part, the monitor settings. Following this
algorithm:
- ask about tft/lcd with the existing debconf question
- ask about the monitor identifier (and preset with Generic Monitor
or the name provided by parse-edid)
Throw away the current question about simple/medium/advanced setup and
proceed so:
- ask:
Template: xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/screen-size
Type: select
_Choices: Up to 14 inches (355 mm), 15 inches (380 mm), 17 inches (430 mm), 18 inches
(480 mm), 19 inches (480 mm), 20 inches (510 mm), 21 inches (530 mm)
Default: 17 inches (430 mm)
_Description: Please choose your approximate monitor size.
Your answer should be as precise as possible. If you monitor has better
or lower quality than the average monitors in its class, you can
refine its settings later.
Template: xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/resolution-class
Type: select
_Choices: VGA (640x480), SVGA (800x600), XGA (1024x768), XGA+ (1152x864), SXGA
(1280x1024), SXGA+ (1400x1050), UXGA (1600x1200), W-UXGA (1920x1200)
Default: XGA (1024x768)
_Description: Please choose your resolution class
The resolution class of you monitor is normaly described in the manual
of the display.
If your display does not fit in any of this categories, choose just anything
and you can refine the settings later.
- If the monitor type is LCD, we can calculate all we need.
However, user may need to tune some things, eg. on non-4:3
displays. Later.
Now, we need a data table to choose the frequency values for an average
monitor of the given type and insert this settings in the following
template:
Template: xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/general-info
Type: boolean
Default: true
_Description: Is the choosed data correct?
Setup has now choosed following settings that should work for an
average monitor of the type you have choosen:
Brand name: ${identifier}
Type: {tft_or_lcd}
Screen ratio: 4:3
General Screen Size: ${screen-size} diagonal (Width:
{ratio-calculation($screen-size)}, Height: {ratio-calculation($screen-size)})
Best resolution: ${ (type==tft) : ${value from resolution-class} : ${value from data
table for the res-class} }
Pixel resolution: ${ (x-value-of(best-resolution) - unvisible-bordersize-on-CRTs ) /
$width }
Horizontal frequency range: ${value from data table or edid)
Refresh rate range: ${value from data table or edid)
Best mode: ${width}x${height}-{rate-from-edid or VESA table or minimum for TFTs}
.
If the data looks acceptable for your monitor, answer with Yes,
otherwise choose No to customize some settings.

But maybe there is some behavior that makes this appear more often or something such, i don't know. Overheating of the graphic chip or failing powersupply (either on the board or the agp power lines) might be potential culprits. Well, if it's truly a hardware problem, sure it wouldn't affect just this accleration primitive. David, can you try adding the following to your Screen section in XF86Config-4? Option XaaNoSolidHorVertLine (This is documented in XF86Config-4(5x).) It would affect all of them, but be triggered there by either the fifo size, or some other reason. It hangs in GLINT_WAIT, so the problem most probably is in the accel primitive _before_ this one. I will try to build the full 4.3.0-0pre1v1 (BTW, why both pre1 and v1, is this not doing double usage) Because it's version 1 of the forthcoming 4.3.0-1 package.

Bug#207539: Bug report
Package: Xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.1.0.1 My first attempt to install debian in this case 'woody', a re-install produced a similar outcome. The process was successful enough to allow me to sign in at the command line, I then attempted to start the graphical interface using Startx A message was returned by Xserver-xfree86 Fatal server error no screens found The Graphics card is: Radeon7000Pro AV64S-T Graphics Accelerator I have attached the relevant XFree86 log Using an identical hardware configuration in another partition and Mandrake 8.0 no problem is encountered. However Xserver is version 4.2.1 and the driver Radeon rather than the Mach64 available in debian I would appreciate any assistance you can provide as I am not competent at the command line level. Reguards John Welland This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way.

Bug#207537: xserver-xfree86: autodetection is not used
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.2.1-10 Severity: normal Hi, despite what you told me on irc before ignoring me none of the autodetection works. The reason for this becomes obvious when reading the config script. You only ever run the autodetection on an initial install. What you fail to see is that people upgrading or reconfiguring might still want to use this method. It would also be good to keep the previous selected values of any questions as default (thats rather a must) and to mark the probed values (or mention them in the text) for reference. Here is the log from a config run: == xserver-xfree86 config debug: Configuring xserver-xfree86. xserver-xfree86 config debug: X server symlink exists and points to executable X server; capping X server question priority at medium. xserver-xfree86 config debug: $OWNERS has only one value; shared/default-x-server will not be asked xserver-xfree86 config debug: not prompting for video card autodetection; reconfiguring xserver-xfree86 config debug: seen flag of shared/default-x-server is false xserver-xfree86 config debug: db_input medium shared/default-x-server xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer() db_input medium shared/default-x-server with default xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: (reconfiguring) preserving existing answer xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: shared/default-x-server is not being asked xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: shared/default-x-server is xserver-xfree86 xserver-xfree86 config debug: /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file exists; capping configuration question priority at medium. xserver-xfree86 config debug: user declined video card autodetection (driver) xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer() db_input medium xserver-xfree86/config/device/driver with default vesa xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: (reconfiguring) preserving existing answer ati xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: asking xserver-xfree86/config/device/driver xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: xserver-xfree86/config/device/driver is ati xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer() validate_string_db_input medium xserver-xfree86/config/device/identifier with default Generic Video Card xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: (reconfiguring) preserving existing answer Generic Video Card xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: asking xserver-xfree86/config/device/identifier xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: xserver-xfree86/config/device/identifier is Generic Video Card xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer() validate_string_db_input medium xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/rules with default xfree86 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: (reconfiguring) preserving existing answer xfree86 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: asking xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/rules xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/rules is xfree86 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer() validate_string_db_input medium xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/model with default pc104 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: (reconfiguring) preserving existing answer pc105 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: asking xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/model xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/model is pc105 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer() validate_string_db_input medium xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/layout with default us xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: (reconfiguring) preserving existing answer de xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: asking xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/layout xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/layout is de xserver-xfree86 config debug: not prompting for mouse autodetection; reconfiguring xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer() db_input medium xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/port with default /dev/misc/psaux xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: (reconfiguring) preserving existing answer /dev/misc/psaux xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: asking xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/port xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/port is /dev/misc/psaux xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer() db_input medium xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol with default PS/2 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: (reconfiguring) preserving existing answer ImPS/2 xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: asking xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol xserver-xfree86 config debug: auto_answer: xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol is ImPS/2 xserver-xfree86 config debug: xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/identifier is already
Bug#207543: xserver-xfree86: prefBusID patch to select prefered PCI bus id
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0-0pre1v1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: experimental patch
this patch makes it possibel to select which busid the xserver
should operate on. this is handy if two or more graphic cards in
a box run independent xservers and need to reset the card
independently from the other xserver. this patch features the
requested clean up configuration interface via the XF86Config
file. then one can write stuff like this in ones config:
Section ServerLayout
Identifier X0
Screen 0 Screen0 0 0
InputDeviceMouse2 CorePointer
InputDeviceKeyboard0 CoreKeyboard
Option PrefBusID 1:0:0

Bug#207460: xserver-xfree86: [core server] PCI bus scan loops forever on ARM boxen
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.3.0-0pre1v1 Severity: important Tags: upstream experimental patch - Forwarded message from Philip Blundell [EMAIL PROTECTED] - From: Philip Blundell [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: debian-x@lists.debian.org Subject: infinite loop in PCI scan code on arm Date: 11 Aug 2003 18:55:29 +0100 Message-Id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Mailing-List: debian-x@lists.debian.org archive/latest/9486 X-Mailer: Ximian Evolution 1.4.3 X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-2.4 required=4.0 tests=USER_AGENT_XIMIAN version=2.55-lists.debian.org_2003_07_19 A couple of days ago, I mentioned to Branden on IRC that I was having a problem with the PCI bus scan looping forever on some ARM systems with the 4.3 prerelease code. He suggested that I try this patch from the HEAD: http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/xf86pciBus.c.diff?r1=3.68r2=3.69f=h I've done a local rebuild with this change applied and it does indeed seem to solve the problem. If this could be included in the next version of the Debian packages, I'd appreciate it. Thanks p. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

This don't bring us much, it is hanging in glint_wait, which is a macro
waiting for space in the fifo, and since the space never comes, it
waits forever. Same diagnostic as before. The pipeline is deadlocked,
but i don't know why. Strong suspisions of a hardware problems, the
hardware cannot be all that new after all. But maybe there is some
behavior that makes this appear more often or something such, i don't
know. Overheating of the graphic chip or failing powersupply (either on
the board or the agp power lines) might be potential culprits.
I will try to build the full 4.3.0-0pre1v1 (BTW, why both pre1 and v1,
is this not doing double usage) with the glint debug option enabled, so
you can run the non-loadable server in gdb too. I need to free space
again on my disks (or buy a new disk) though.
Friendly,
Sven Luther

Bug#207481: xserver-xfree86: proposed debconf overhaul
Package: xserver-xfree86
Severity: wishlist
Okay, here is what I would change in xserver-xfree86.config.
- xserver-xfree86/config/device/use_fbdev:
check for existance of /proc/fb before asking the question about
framebuffer support.
- If it does not exist, do not ask the question and set use_fbdev to
false.
- If it does exist, read it, and if
- the contents matches nvidia, do
not ask the question and set use_fbdev to false.
- otherwise set default to false but ask the question
- To the video card section: I suggest setting SWCursor option
by-default, since some drivers show broken mouse pointer on certain
video cards.
- on every arch except of sun and sgi set the default of
xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/rules to xfree86. This is
just guessing but should be okay for the majority of the users.
- get the first part /(\w\w)_../ of LC_CTYPE or LANG and set the
default for xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/layout
- based on this setting, guess the layout most typical for the target
country and set as it as default, then ask the question
- based on the layout, set a default for
xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/keyboard/variant and ask the
question.
I suggest to ask people on debian-i18n to send some data about the
settings that majority of the users in their country uses. For
example, in de it is popular to set the nodeadkeys option. Russians
may want to set a second keymap in layout, to us,ru and a
grp:grp:alt_shift_toggle (or some other toggle) option to rotate
the keymaps. We should just ask them on -i18n, code this settings
into one mapping table and insert them
- ask a question about advanced keyboard options with defaults from the
typical configuration selection mentioned above
- the mouse config is mostly okay, I just wish to see a final sentence
in every description:
If unsure, choose to emulate the 3rd mouse button.
If unsure, enable the Zaxismapping.
- For mouse autodetection: if gpm is running (test -e
/var/run/gpm.pid), then open /etc/gpm.conf and source it,
if $repeat_type exists, set
xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/port to /dev/gpmdata
and xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol to the
$repeat_type value (eg. mapped from the gpm syntax to X syntax).
Now the most interessting part, the monitor settings. Following this
algorithm:
- ask about tft/lcd with the existing debconf question
- ask about the monitor identifier (and preset with Generic Monitor
or the name provided by parse-edid)
Throw away the current question about simple/medium/advanced setup and
proceed so:
- ask:
Template: xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/screen-size
Type: select
_Choices: Up to 14 inches (355 mm), 15 inches (380 mm), 17 inches (430 mm), 18
inches (480 mm), 19 inches (480 mm), 20 inches (510 mm), 21 inches (530 mm)
Default: 17 inches (430 mm)
_Description: Please choose your approximate monitor size.
Your answer should be as precise as possible. If you monitor has better
or lower quality than the average monitors in its class, you can
refine its settings later.
Template: xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/resolution-class
Type: select
_Choices: VGA (640x480), SVGA (800x600), XGA (1024x768), XGA+ (1152x864), SXGA
(1280x1024), SXGA+ (1400x1050), UXGA (1600x1200), W-UXGA (1920x1200)
Default: XGA (1024x768)
_Description: Please choose your resolution class
The resolution class of you monitor is normaly described in the manual
of the display.
If your display does not fit in any of this categories, choose just anything
and you can refine the settings later.
- If the monitor type is LCD, we can calculate all we need.
However, user may need to tune some things, eg. on non-4:3
displays. Later.
Now, we need a data table to choose the frequency values for an average
monitor of the given type and insert this settings in the following
template:
Template: xserver-xfree86/config/monitor/general-info
Type: boolean
Default: true
_Description: Is the choosed data correct?
Setup has now choosed following settings that should work for an
average monitor of the type you have choosen:
Brand name: ${identifier}
Type: {tft_or_lcd}
Screen ratio: 4:3
General Screen Size: ${screen-size} diagonal (Width:
{ratio-calculation($screen-size)}, Height: {ratio-calculation($screen-size)})
Best resolution: ${ (type==tft) : ${value from resolution-class} : ${value
from data table for the res-class} }
Pixel resolution: ${ (x-value-of(best-resolution) -
unvisible-bordersize-on-CRTs ) / $width }
Horizontal frequency range: ${value from data table or edid)
Refresh rate range: ${value from data table or edid)
Best mode: ${width}x${height}-{rate-from-edid or VESA table or minimum for
TFTs}
.
If the data looks acceptable for your monitor, answer with Yes,
otherwise choose No to customize some settings.

But maybe there is some behavior that makes this appear more often or something such, i don't know. Overheating of the graphic chip or failing powersupply (either on the board or the agp power lines) might be potential culprits. Well, if it's truly a hardware problem, sure it wouldn't affect just this accleration primitive. David, can you try adding the following to your Screen section in XF86Config-4? Option XaaNoSolidHorVertLine (This is documented in XF86Config-4(5x).) It would affect all of them, but be triggered there by either the fifo size, or some other reason. It hangs in GLINT_WAIT, so the problem most probably is in the accel primitive _before_ this one. I will try to build the full 4.3.0-0pre1v1 (BTW, why both pre1 and v1, is this not doing double usage) Because it's version 1 of the forthcoming 4.3.0-1 package. Yes, Daniel already explained it to me. Friendly, Sven Luther

Bug#207481: different approach to the XFree86 config
Hi, I have two little things I would like to add. 1. Try to do autodetection. Read out the lang and the monitor. Almost any modern system will report its parameter. 2. Fill in the autodetected values and present them to the user with the following choises: [ ] Bugger off, I do it myself [ ] Use values (I will change what needs changed manually) [ ] change values The first one would disable the configuration completly. No more test and no questions about conffile changes in the future. Thats hardcore guys. The second would be the default. Things like the exact keyboard moddel or the monitor frequency (if reading them out failed) could still be asked or left to the user to fill in. A minimum of questions should be asked. The last options would go through all settings having the autotedted stuff as defaults. That would be like the setup now. An alternative approach would be to present the probed values as menu and the user can choose the items that need changes. Items not probed would need to be selected before savecontinue could be selected. I'm not sure what debconf interfaces can cope with such a menu though. MfG Goswin

Bug#207539: Bug report
Package: Xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.1.0.1 My first attempt to install debian in this case 'woody', a re-install produced a similar outcome. The process was successful enough to allow me to sign in at the command line, I then attempted to start the graphical interface using Startx A message was returned by Xserver-xfree86 Fatal server error no screens found The Graphics card is: Radeon7000Pro AV64S-T Graphics Accelerator I have attached the relevant XFree86 log Using an identical hardware configuration in another partition and Mandrake 8.0 no problem is encountered.

Bug#207537: xserver-xfree86: autodetection is not used
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.2.1-10 Severity: normal Hi, despite what you told me on irc before ignoring me none of the autodetection works.

Bug#207543: xserver-xfree86: prefBusID patch to select prefered PCI bus id
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0-0pre1v1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: experimental patch
this patch makes it possibel to select which busid the xserver
should operate on. this is handy if two or more graphic cards in
a box run independent xservers and need to reset the card
independently from the other xserver. this patch features the
requested clean up configuration interface via the XF86Config
file. then one can write stuff like this in ones config:
Section ServerLayout
Identifier X0
Screen 0 Screen0 0 0
InputDeviceMouse2 CorePointer
InputDeviceKeyboard0 CoreKeyboard
Option PrefBusID 1:0:0

I smell an inconsistency here. I'd imagine it's pretty simple; Eduard has been personally affected by buiggy hardware cursors, but has never had to use UseFBDev. Exactly. The only case I ever had to use UseFBDev was Rage128 video cards that simple required that option if any kind of framebuffer was enabled. And yes, these experiences are not sufficient for any kind of confidence-intervall in real statistics, but IMO they are (in combination with monitoring _user_ channels and mailing list) good enough to estimate the potential problems of our users. Eduard has a tendency to extrapolate his personal experiences to universal applicability, which is why he accuses other Debian Developers of violating the Social Contract when they don't fix bugs the way he wants them fixed. I see, you do never forget anything. And when you have found something universal to bother your enemy, you use it again and again and again.

I did not expect to work together with you (too jerky, too complicated, too depressing) but push the development in the right direction. And if you feel compelled to make jokes about my vocabulary, go ahead, nobody can stop you. Just remember that it is seen as impolite in many parts of the world.

Bug#204844: xlibs: libXt.so needs to be built with gcc 3.3.x for HPPA
I have bad news regarding this bug. LaMont and I have worked on this (LaMont did the hard part; I just diagnosed the failures), and determined that it is not possible to straightforwardly binary-NMU xfree86 4.2.1-6 to fix this problem on HPPA. The reason is that at the time 4.2.1-6 was released, the flex in unstable in testing worked with it. But later, a new flex, with a new micro version number but which was incompatible with a lot if existing lex code in the world, was released. This incompatible version of flex has also since propagated to testing. Nowadays, a lot of packages require the flex-old package, and that includes XFree86. XFree86's build-dependencies have since been updated, but that doesn't do much good for xfree86 4.2.1-6. The only way to get a binary-only-NMU at this point is to custom-craft a build environment which is testing in all respects except for its flex package. The flex package from stable should work (2.5.4a-24). Any flex version with 2.5.31 in it is baad news. A source NMU of xfree86 4.2.1-6 to change the build-dependencies would probably be a bad idea -- no other architecture needs its XFree86 rebuilt in testing, and pieces of the toolchain might have propagated into testing since then and without the fixes from later versions, rebuilds of -6 (what would be -6.1) may actually cause regressions. In my opinion, Debian has been doubly boned lately; on the one hand by the Flex upstream which regards incompatibility with widely-used existing lex code as not meriting anything more than a micro version increment, and by GCC upstream, who appear not to regard major regressions as an impediment to a release as long as they don't affect Intel IA-32 family processors. My feeling is that our efforts are best spent on getting a newer 4.2.1 package into testing at this point. However, if someone wants to go to the trouble of crafting a special testing + woody flex environment for HPPA and doing a binary-only NMU targeted at testing, they have my blessing. -- G.

The default random file on Linux and the Hurd is /dev/random; on NetBSD it remains /dev/urandom per the existing XFree86 code. Twinks who don't want xdm draining their entropy pool can edit /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config and set DisplayManager.randomFile to /dev/ze= ro if they want.

Bug#207543: xserver-xfree86: prefBusID patch to select prefered PCI bus id
On Wed, Aug 27, 2003 at 09:57:20PM +0200, Andreas Schuldei wrote: this patch makes it possibel to select which busid the xserver should operate on. this is handy if two or more graphic cards in a box run independent xservers and need to reset the card independently from the other xserver. this patch features the requested clean up configuration interface via the XF86Config file. then one can write stuff like this in ones config: Thanks for submitting this enhanced patch. I have another question. What does it mean to prefer the specified bus ID? Will the X server ignore the supplied value, or reset a video card on a different bus, under any circumstances? I need to know these things to write patches to the upstream documentation, which were not supplied in your diff. -- G.
