No, wait. The only weird things that we supported in Conflicts were upgrades from preliminar Ubuntu packages, I guess due to the big amount of Debian users that tried them. Why should we conflict with it, given that it is no longer in Debian? We do not support upgrades from more than one release back.

left-over stuff in testing installation with new xorg
Hi, the new xorg left some cruft on my system: not in testing, yet: pm-dev libice-dev libxft-dev libice6 xfonts-dosemu gsfonts-x11 Packages that simply don't exist anymore (bug?): xfonts-base-transcoded So at least, xfonts-base-transcoded is something not dealt with. Should I simply remove it? Also note: some users have extra files in /usr/X11R6. For me, it is the firmware that the theatre200 driver (radeon related) wanted at /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/multimedia. It was simply left there and thus the new driver did not find it anymore. :-/ HS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

still have this problem with libice-dev 1:1.0.0, let us know.
- David Nusinow
It's not a libice-dev bug, but I believe it's a libice6 bug. The libs
(libICE.a libICE.so libICE.so.6 libICE.so.6.4) are in /usr/X11R6/lib, [...]
They aren't in libice6 1:1.0.0-3. Moreover, it contains libICE.so.6.3.0,
not libICE.so.6.4, so it sounds like you have got the offending files
from somewhere else.

Bug#364932: Workaround Re: xorg: My keyboard no longer works after upgrading
Same problem here... my keyboard no longer works under X after upgrading
my testing laptop. All keys (no numerical pad on a laptop) does a

Nothing change. I also tried :
--

But no effect.

As Noel Maddy say, I've modified /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/pc, but no

I purge all xorg 6.9 packages, except libice6 because there're many
packages which depend on it.

As Antoine Sirinelli, if I change my xorg.conf by putting a foo name
for XkbRules :
Option XkbRules foo or xfree
The keyboard works except the shift and alt keys (ctrl work). The Xorg
log is only :
--

(WW) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap

--
And nothing special on standard error output.
--
Moreover the roller of mouse (USB) don't work for copy/paste :
- nothing of all with xterm ;
- with rxvt and firefox, in the same window it's good, but not from one
window to another.
--
I have another machine in testing uptodate, the upgrade cause no
problem... The only specificity which I see to the broken system, it's
that it was not reinstalled for a long time (beginnig with a stable
potato).

Hi, I have the same problem as Vincent. I have debian testing and after the X upgrade of two days ago in debian testing, I was also unable to run ./configure on my program. Of course, running instead LDFLAGS=-L/usr/X11R6/lib ./configure fixed the problem for me too. For me also, the files libICE.a libICE.so libICE.so.6 and libICE.so.6.4 are in /usr/X11R6/lib and when running dpkg -S /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6.4 to find out what package they came from, I get libice6: /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6.4 which means that these packages do in fact come from the libice6 package. Here is the info regarding the libice6 package I have installed: libice6 version 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 Maintainer: Debian X Strike Force I am running debian testing and this is the libice6 version which comes with debian testing so I am not sure why you think these files in /usr/X11R6/lib have come from somewhere else.

[BUG] Overheating of ATI radeon with Xorg
Let me proceed with my X Window System related stuff. I have some problems with radeon ATI card on my semi-modern amd64 laptop. Upgrading in testing (now i'm on sid) to Xorg i've noticed, that my video-chip fan is going to be crazy, like radeon became a boilerplate. (Some radeon developer like boilerplates to be under GPL, see linux/drivers/video/aty/radeon_base.c ;) Back-porting by hands to xfree86, using little difference i used Xorg's /etc and some libs, but xfree86's drivers. Yes drivers, because i've found, that problem is in linux-raden_drm - xorg's radeon driver team (obviously). After some upgrade, i've got broken X with no chance to repair it, i had real soup of sym-links and files in X directories of xfree86 and xorg. But this told me way, I can solve problem with Xorg's radeon. Switching to some other mode (C-Alt-Plus, Minus) is stopping my chip to boil (funny, but this was possible because Xorg upgrade caused keyboard to switch modes on any key pressing ;). So, this is some kind of bug. I tried to find some radeon_drm lists, but fail. Found only typo on http://wiki.x.org/wiki/ATIProprietaryDriver: [ design vrom ATI and from third party board vendors ] and broken links on http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DRM. r300.sf.net is telling, that new X driver may break hardware, i agree with this. That's why i'm asking you, people, to report and contact linux-radeon_drm or somebody else, to make it possible to solve. Searching and comparing within X logs and radeon drivers in linux (framebuffer and drm) i found something. 1. /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.16/drivers/video/aty/radeon_pm.c Has some power management functions with comments about difference with X driver. Maybe i'll try this one later. 2. New line typo in Xorg's radeon driver: (**) RADEON(0): RADEONSwitchMode() !n(**) RADEON(0): RADEONModeInit() 1400x1050 108.00 1400 34208 34320 1688 1050 1052 1055 1063 (24,32) 3. Debian's latest (in sid) kernel has 1.22 version of radeon_drm, while Xorg wants even later (1.23). My Xorg log or config maybe accessed by web upon request. BTW, i have radeon's xorg.conf 'Option DynamicClocks true', and this must prevent overheating on mobility radeons on laptops (i guess).

Bug#347371: xserver-xorg: Dualhead ATI Radeon 9100 IGP + SIS 300/305 fails sind 6.9.0 update - SIS memory size detected wrong
Interesting. I have found the same problem exists with other cards. ie I810 on board and a Nvidia MX440 pci. It all comes down to the Xserver being unable to initialise the second video card, and the bios not wanting to. I am currently running 2.6.16-1-686. I am running with both cards, thou I had to fiddle a bit. The procedure I used was; start up and only go to run level 1 load the sisfb module. It complains that the sis bios is not initialised and it can't do that. Run X and it all comes up fine. Kill X go to Run level 2, and I'm away laughing. I will try a different kernel version. I currently have available 2.6.14-2-386 and 2.6.14-2-686. I can also install from stable version 2.6.8-2-686 Wish me luck. Fran.

Bug#370564: xkb/symbols/macintosh_vndr/us without srvr_ctrl(xfree86)
Package: xkb-data
Version: 0.8-5
Tags: patch
The current xkb-symbols files for macintosh keyboards do not allow
console switching (Control + Alt + Fn). The file
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/macintosh_vndr/us only defines
// Begin Function section
key FK01 {[ F1 ] };
key FK02 {[ F2 ] };
...
key FK12 {[ F12 ] };
I think, the following patch should be applied:
==
diff -ur xkb-orig/symbols/macintosh_vndr/us xkb/symbols/macintosh_vndr/us

==
to include the definitions from /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/srvr_ctrl.
But maybe the problem is more complicated, because the rules file
/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base uses different combinations of xkb-symbols
for different macintosh keyboards, for example
macintosh_vndr/us(extended)
macintosh_vndr/us(extended)+macintosh_vndr/%l%(v)
macintosh_vndr/us(extended)+%l%(v):2
macintosh_vndr/us(extended)+%l%(v)
pc(pc105)+macintosh_vndr/us(extended)
pc(pc105)+macintosh_vndr/%l%(v)
Those which are based on pc(pc105) should already include the stuff
for console switching, but I did not test this.

Bug#347371: xserver-xorg: Dualhead ATI Radeon 9100 IGP + SIS 300/305 fails sind 6.9.0 update - SIS memory size detected wrong
OKey done the test with 2.6.8 Other than it doesn't like my udev installed... X seemed to get past the memory problem / bios issue with the SIS, but failed with can't open /dev/agpgart Tried X only on the sis (the /dev/agpgart was for the i810) and other than complaining about can't find the mouse, it seemed ok. Rebooted back to 2.6.16, and It didn't bring up the second card (run level 2 with KDM) So console login. Kill kdm Run X and it only came up on the i810 with the error of not enough mem on the SIS card. KIll X modprobe sisfb Complains about bios not initialised and it can't do it. rmmod sisfb run X. Both cards come up fine. Kill X run kdm. and log in with both cards working. Hope some of this helps... If you have a standard Debian kernel install of 2.6.12, or what ever will work with udev, I am happy to test for you.

We were discussing something about hotpluggable graphic tablets [basically Gustavo Franco and me, and of course we'll co-operate with ron, he has already talked to stratus], and we came up to the fact that maybe one of the solutions for all evil would be a /etc/xorg.conf.d/ so that we can ship pre-configured wacom-xorg-goodness instead of demanding to write some - as the official HOWTO suggests, and as it is the status quo, by now - which would make more sense for _the debian desktop_. I definitely like this idea, although I'm not certain that pushing for it in etch is wise. To be honest, I'm still focused on cleaning up the major packaging bugs from 7.0, and I need to get 7.1 in to etch ASAP, so this is probably not the best time to add new X packaging features. This idea though, is exactly what I've wanted to do for etch+1. I have several plans for the server's configuration stuff that I'm hoping to start on soonish, hopefully in conjunction with Adam Jackson of Redhat. My vision involves having sensible defaults in the server that minimize the need for the config file. In addition, the hotplugging work from Zepheniah Hull and Daniel Stone will help with this. The second part is exactly your xorg.conf.d idea, down to the directory name :-). Ideally, the hotplugging stuff mentioned above will solve your problem so this isn't necessary, but this was meant to be a fallback for some situations. The server's config code is a mess though, and it's going to need some serious love to get to the point where it can handle something like xorg.conf.d gracefully. As such, I'm not really eager to deploy it for etch. I'm hoping to have some time to talk with ajax (who is the maintainer for the configuration portion of the server) about this in more detail to see what he thinks. That said, if you want to start on the problem, I recommend working first with upstream (I'll be watching) so you can get your patches vetted by people who know the server better than me. If not, I'm planning to do this in conjunction with upstream once things in Debian are settled for etch. Let me know what you think. What's your opinion on this? If you like we can bring the discussion on debian-x or debian-desktop. I've cc'ed debian-x. Please add -desktop too if you think it's appropriate. - David Nusinow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
