take a look at xrestop. It shows you which X clients have reserved resources 
in your server. Probably galeon (or some other mozilla clone) leaking pixmaps 
in the server :(

Memory leak?

2005-02-25 Thread Iacopo Spalletti
My X is experimenting strange memory behaviours lately, and i'd like to find 
out why.
How can i detect what is going on?
To be more precise, i have x-window-system, kde and their dependecies 
installed from sid; running top i get:
 PID   USER  PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEMTIME+  COMMAND
 7497 root  15   0 1337m 499m 1828 S 14.9 49.4  78:39.40 XFree86

i.e. 1338 of virtual image after just a few hours of uptime.
Xfree log and ~/.xsession-errors don't show anything interesting, apparently

Any hints on how to track down causes of this huge memory occupation would be 
very helpful.
Thanks

Bug#295042: Keyboard problem resolved

2005-02-25 Thread Harald Geyer
Hi Braden and all!

I can now confirm that indeed a bad mouse setup is causing all that
keyboard trouble:

After adding a "CorePointer" Option to the Section about the USB-mouse
and commenting out the PS2-mouse from the "ServerLayout" Section, the
keyboard is working now.

If you want the technical details, then please read #169427.

Harald

This was caused by unstripped binaries and was fixed in the bin-NMU of 
4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1

Bug#296876: xvfb-run: does not properly look for xauth

2005-02-25 Thread Wouter Verhelst
Package: xvfb
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10
Severity: normal

I have a cron job that needs an X server to be present, so wanted to use
xvfb-run to make this work. However, there's an issue; my cron output
looks like this:

xvfb-run: error: xauth command not found

even though xbase-clients is installed. This seems to be because
xvfb-run looks for xauth using 'which', while xauth is installed in
/usr/bin/X11/xauth; using which will thus work if that directory is in
$PATH, but that is not usually the case when something is being called
from cron.

Bug#85601: xf86cfg runs well, now.

2005-02-25 Thread David Martínez Moreno
Hello, Oskar. I can launch xf86cfg just now. Several modules shout 
about SIGs, but the binary works well.

Could you please test again and let us know if we can close this bug 
report?

Thanks in advance,

Everything works fine now. 

Here are a few bits from my automatically generated config-file, but
they are probably not relevant.

Sorry about the late reply, and thank you all for making Debian.

It should not be a problem since it is in freedesktop.org. The license

I do not see any problem.

What Pedro asked for is to merge this driver with the current XFree86 
Debian tree, ans test if it is possible to ship it.

Thank you for helping,

Bug#296207: xserver-xfree86: [Withdrawing] xanalogtv causes hard lock-ups

2005-02-25 Thread Edward Miller
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10
Followup-For: Bug #296207

Further investigation has revealed that this problem can be solved by
reducing my CPU and memory speed. I am running nforce2 with a Mobile
Athlon XP. I had this at 10x193. So I backed it right down and, after
much testing with the trusty xanalogtv, have slowly pushed it up again
to 10x180, which has so far proven stable.

Note that I am aware of the history of nforce2 problems and have been
running 2.4.27 with a soon-to-be-released backport of the acpi timer
override fix from 2.6. I have also been testing kernels without this
fix and, in general, have tested under a large variety of different
conditions (noapic, nolapic, acpi=off, nmi_watchdog=2, C1 disconnect
enabled/disabled).

In summary, I suspect that this problem has not been caused by
xserver-xfree86 and that, by contrast, running xanalogtv is an excellent
stability test for nforce2 systems. By the way, extensive memtest runs
had shown no problem at 10x193.
