Bug#254565: same problem on IBM 300PL desktop with SavageS3 AGP card

[Seth Goodman]

I would like to confirm the stuck hardware cursor problem on a desktop
using the SavageS3 graphics engine.  Running Sarge on this hardware:

Where can this be obtained? I can only find 6.8.2.dfsg.1-8+SVN.

FWIW, just downgrading xserver-xorg to 6.8.2.dfsg.1-8 and leaving all
other packages to 6.8.99.900.dfsg.1-0pre1 let me continue to work with
blender without any problem.

Building from the subversion source on powerpc (ibook) gives this :

Since moving to xserver-xorg, dpkg-reconfigure (even at low priority)
does not work anymore, since the debconf values for
inputdevice/mouse/port and inputdevice/mouse/protocol are empty, leading
to an error message and a 0 size xorg.conf, from
/var/cache/debconf/config.dat:

Name: xserver-xorg/config/inputdevice/mouse/port
Template: xserver-xorg/config/inputdevice/mouse/port
Value:
Owners: xserver-xorg
Flags: seen
Variables:
 choices =

Name: xserver-xorg/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol
Template: xserver-xorg/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol
Value:
Owners: xserver-xorg
Flags: seen
Variables:
 choices =

I tried to set them manually in there, but to no avail (not being a
debconf guru).  Thus upgrading this bug report to important, as it
renders the package useless on a non-releasing architecture.

Anyway, the right values for hurd-i386 are "/dev/mouse" for port and
"osmouse" for protocol, could this made default?

This is what dpkg-architecture outputs, if it helps:

DEB_BUILD_ARCH=hurd-i386
DEB_BUILD_ARCH_OS=hurd
DEB_BUILD_ARCH_CPU=i386
DEB_BUILD_GNU_CPU=i486
DEB_BUILD_GNU_SYSTEM=gnu
DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE=i486-gnu
DEB_HOST_ARCH=hurd-i386
DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS=hurd
DEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU=i386
DEB_HOST_GNU_CPU=i486
DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM=gnu
DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE=i486-gnu

Should I find somebody who whips up a patch for this?


cheers,

Michael

Right, I used 1680 virtual screen size on the CRT because my background
pic was made for 2x1680 not 1600+1680.

Not sure, will test on sunday (I sit in front of another monitor atm).
IIRC the 2 problems I had when playing around with those settings were 

- CRT is set to 1680x1050 resolution with a really bad VertRefresh of
  60Hz
- Xinerama desktop (with screen1 leftof screen0) get sized 3320x1200,
  which makes part of the screen inaccessible on the Laptop display.
  Thus I don't have a panel/systray anymore and "loose" 150 Pixel in
  height on that display.

My desired setup would be 3280x1050 (height on both screens). Do you
have any idea why the setup worked with Xfree86 4.3? Either the old X11
"stretched" the 1050 resolution to 1200 on the CRT or somehow set the
CRT to 1600x1050 - which Xorg doesn't do (not even when setting Modes to
1600x1050 only ).

Try not specifying sync ranges in the monitor sections, they seem to
cause the driver to exceed the limits advertised in the EDID.

Your configuration doesn't tell it to do that but to use 1680x1050,
which you get.

Because you override the virtual resolution to be 1680x1050, 1600x1200
isn't possible due to the invariant above.

What happens if you comment out the 'Virtual' directive for "Screen1"?

Your desired setup should be perfectly possible with the right
configuration.

Re: X.Org 6.9 Needs Your Build Logs!

[Julien Cristau]

Hi,

I just tried to build xorg-x11 from current svn on alpha.
It failed in xc/lib/GL/mesa/drivers/dri/r128/r128_ioctl.c, with what
looks like a missing #include somewhere. I don't have the time to
investigate right now, but will look into it next week if noone does it
first.
Build log is available at
.

Cheers,
Julien Cristau

Yep. If you got to the MANIFEST check, which you did, you got it right.

[Kyle McMartin]

Hi David et al.,

I built xorg on hppa for you guys as you asked (though the message
never seems to have gotten to debian-hppa). The build log is here,
http://kyle.mcmartin.ca/build/logs/xorg-x11_6.8.99.900.dfsg.1-0pre2.log

To build it, I:
Cleaned up my sid chroot, dist-upgraded.
Added experimental to the sources.list.
apt-get build-dep {libxrender,renderext,xorg-x11}
apt-get -t experimental source {libxrender,renderext}
Built them...
dpkg -i *.deb
cd xorg-x11[...]
Built it...

Is this the correct set of packages you wanted as build-deps?

Cheers,
Kyle

Bug#332637: config for xserver-xorg/autodetect_mouse broken

[Steve Greenland]

Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-8
Severity: normal

During the upgrade to -8, I was asked three times whether I wanted to
attempt mouse device autodetection.

1. During normal debconf preconfigure.

2. Before unpacking xserver-xorg.

3. During xserver-xorg postinst.

Each time I answered "No". 

Since I was upgrading, even once was too many, but three times seems
excessive...perhaps you need a "Really definitely no, please don't ask
again!" choice. :-)
