Bug#365282: Fix for preinst bug
This bug was due to some debconf migration code in config trying to access the xserver-xorg/config/inputdevice/mouse/zaxismapping template which might not exist (at least, I don't have it). Should be safe to just ignore. Patch to config is attached.

Bug#352833: xlibs: xkb no longer handles grp:shift_toggle)
I think this information (renaming the option) should be put in the NEWS.Debian.gz file. When I first upgraded to 6.9 and discovered shift_toggle no lnoger works, I looked first in the bug tracking system[1], then NEWS.Debian.gz. This file mentioned major changes to xkb and recommended installing xkb-data (which I think was in experimental at the time, but was of no help in any event), but not this specific fix. I think this is worth mentioning. [1] I thought I had reported bug about this, but apprently I forgot to the repeat was eaten by @[EMAIL PROTECTED] exim.

Bug#365134: confirmation of severe xdm bug
I'd like to confirm the seriousness of this bug. I have a pre-Xorg X-server, but I thought I would try upgrading xdm to see if that would fix some minor problems associated with "/etc/init.d/xdm restart". Instead, it broke the X-server completely. The original submitter is correct that xdm looks for some executables in the wrong places: # strings /usr/bin/xdm | grep usr /usr/bin/xrdb /usr/bin/xterm -ls /usr/bin/xterm /usr/lib/X11/xdm/chooser :0 local /usr/bin/X :0 /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb /etc:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb /usr/lib/X11/xdm/libXdmGreet.so The file /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers has the same wrong location for the X-server binary. I was able to fix this with a few symlinks, but if I hadn't seen his report of what the problem was, I wouldn't have had a clue. # ls -l /usr/bin/X /usr/bin/xrdb lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 2006-04-28 14:48 /usr/bin/X -> X11/X lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2006-04-28 14:48 /usr/bin/xrdb -> X11/xrdb In order to fix this reliably, why not give the PATH variable a reasonable value, and then let execlp() find the actual location of the executables? Either that, or have the xdm package create these same symlinks. As the original report says, it is also necessary to change the references in /etc/init.d/xdm and /etc/X11/default-display-manager from "/usr/bin/X11/xdm" to "/usr/bin/xdm". It's hard to see how this problem arose, because these files all come from the same package; there's no question of a version conflict. -- Ian Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi, Aaron, thanks, that's definitely useful information, and I will be
incorporating your patch, but I don't think it addresses the immediate
problem (although I'm willing to be proved wrong).
AC_PATH_X
if test "x$no_x" = "xyes"; then
AC_MSG_ERROR([WMRack needs X Windows!!!])
else
CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -I${x_includes}"
LIBS="$LIBS -L${x_libraries} -lX11"
fi
The 'test "x$no_x" = "xyes"' is returning true, so it's not even
getting to the CFLAGS part. So I think I still need more help.
Looking though the configure file, it seems that the initial header
file test is for Xos.h, but if that fails (and it might if x_includes
is ending up empty), the backup test is for Intrinsic.h. The autoconf
documentation suggests that the search for Xos.h may have been a
bug-fix, in which case, the backup test may have been overlooked,
making this a bug in autoconf, with a simple (for now) workaround of
adding a build-dependency on libxt-dev. But I'd like to confirm this
reasoning. If I'm right, this may affect a lot of packages...

x_includes and x_libraries now expand to the empty string, biting
anything that assumed otherwise. Accounting for that isn't too hard,

If I start Amaya without DRI, I get an error with request_code 143, and : $ xdpyinfo -queryExt|grep 143 GLX (opcode: 143, base event: 77, base error: 154) SGI-GLX (opcode: 143, base event: 77, base error: 154) Is says GLX, which is consistent with what I supposed at least. > > -no crash with the nvidia proprietary driver, display is happy. > > > > When I tried using gdb to get a backtrace(attached), all I got was a > > long list of calls involving wxWidgets, GTK, but not Mesa. > > X is asynchronous, so the client receives the error long after it sent > out the request causing it.

The previously attached backtrace was obtained with libgl1-mesa-swx11, running amaya with the --sync parameter, so there might be a problem there too. Doing the same with libgl1-mesa-glx and DRI disabled, I get the attached one.

HELP!! Re: Bug#365126: wmrack - FTBFS: error: WMRack needs X Windows!!!
Hi, I need some help or suggestions or something. My package WMRack
builds fine here--but I haven't yet upgraded to the new "modular" X.
It fails to build on Debian's autobuilders though, and I'm darned if I
have any idea why. I am the sole upstream maintainer of this package
as well as the Debian maintainer. Nothing has changed in the package
that should affect this.
The build-dependencies (which worked before) are: "libx11-dev,
libxext-dev, libxpm-dev, xutils, debhelper (>= 4.0.0)" and the
autoconf stanza (from configure.in) is, simply:
dnl check for X11
dnl
AC_PATH_X
if test "x$no_x" = "xyes"; then
AC_MSG_ERROR([WMRack needs X Windows!!!])
else
CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -I${x_includes}"
LIBS="$LIBS -L${x_libraries} -lX11"
fi
The configure file was generated with a reasonably up-to-date version
of autoconf (no more than a month or so old), and it works with the
last non-modular version of X. Why does this no longer work on the
current autobuilders, and what (if anything) can I do about it?
The source is in sid: "apt-get -d source wwrack" (on x86 at least).
I would try pbuilder, but I am somewhat tight on disk space at
present, and freeing enough would be non-trivial, so I wanted to ask
for help first, in case this is a known problem, or, at least, simple
for someone else to find.
Please CC me, as I am not subscribed to debian-x (although, worst
case, I do know how to find the archives).
TIA

Bug#365134: wrong paths to executables or executables in wrong places
Package: xdm Version: 1:1.0.1-6 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Hello, The paths to, at least, the xdm and X executables are not set up correctly. Some init scripts or configuration files, including /etc/init.d/xdm or /etc/X11/default-display-manager expect the xdm executable to be in /usr/bin/X11/xdm while the package installs it in /usr/bin. Moreover, the xdm executable (I think) looks for /usr/bin/X while X is to be found, in debian testing, in /usr/X11R6/bin. The same problem occurs for, at least, xrdb which is looked for in /usr/bin but to be found in /usr/X11R6/bin. I suppose this is due to the upgrade of Xorg in debian unstable reaching testing.

Yes, however, the existing 'solution' for running compiz on AIGLX that I've seen involves hacking the server in a way that causes 3D clients other than compiz not to clip their drawables correctly (Xgl still contains a similar hack for compiz). AFAIK people are working on adding support for the new Composite 'overlay window' to compiz though, which would make it work with AIGLX out of the box. As Xgl is currently only really useful with proprietary GL drivers (due to missing PBuffer / framebuffer object support in the free drivers, which is slowly being fixed), the effort might be better spent on helping with these issues upstream. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast| http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer
