XKB on xserver
Hi, I've got a question that I hope someone here can answer. I have this machine 'joe' that is really only used as an x-terminal. So it's got almost no packages installed. The only X packages I installed are the xserver-xfree86 and its dependecies (xserver-common and xfree86-common). Since my wife is russian and I'm dutch, I really would like XKB support. But it appears that one really needs to install xbase-clients to get that. Some more about the setup... quark is the application server and runs gdm. It also supplies everything else. It is the main machine in the house. Its XKB support works just fine. Joe starts X from inittab using '-query quark'. And unless quark is used for W2k for kids games, it works just great! What I would like is to have XKB on joe without all the useless stuff that's being dragged in by xbase-clients. How do I do that? I don't think this is an unusual situation, is it? Thanks, Jan Evert
Bug#284111: xserver-xfree86: Doesn't scan PCI domains above 0000 on startup
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8rjmx3 Severity: important When I try to start X under a 2.6 kernel, the PCI scan never finds my video board. I strongly suspect that this is because it's on PCI domain 0001: the PCI scan code only appears to consider domain (see patch in bug #279436). Here's the output of 'lspci -v' on this machine: > :80:00.0 Host bridge: Sun Microsystems Computer Corp.

Bug#280384: X11 crashing on 2.4.28
OK, the machine made all the X packages and I installed them with no problems. It does look like Richard's patch works, in that, according to the XFree86 log, the loader now correctly loads pcidata, which goes on to scan the PCI bus as it's supposed to. I think it should work with later 2.4 kernels now, although I haven't tested it. I'm willing to provide the packages I built if somebody wants to try them, but I can't put them up for ftp (we don't allow ftp servers here). Working with 2.6 kernels is another problem, at least for my E250. Now startx grinds to a halt with the dreaded "no screens found", and indeed the log does't have it finding my display adaptor in the PCI scan. I suspect this is because 2.6 adds domains to the PCI system, and for totally unexplained reasons, my display adaptor is on domain 0001 instead of , and it doesn't look like that gets scanned. But that's for another bug report. Thank you, Richard. I think it's fixed; we can be more certain once somebody tests it. .Ron -- Ron Murray ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.rjmx.net/~ron GPG Public Key Fingerprint: F2C1 FC47 5EF7 0317 133C D66B 8ADA A3C4 D86C 74DE
