You weren't. His reply perhaps wasn't, either, but at least there was a reason for that which was discernible to dispassionate bystanders. -Peter ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
Re: Building XFree 4.3.99.9

Yes :) It runs the preprocessor on the source and nothing else. From what I can see its no different to the code in the files and doesnt really give me any clues. Pipe it into less and search for I2CDevPtr - see if it is defined weirdly as a typedef. It might be a #define instead - you'll be able to see that inside the DDCRead_DDC2() function. You search inside less with the '/' command: Type /I2CDevPtrenter, for example. Use 'n' and 'p' to skip between the matches. -Peter ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

No, why would anyone ever want that? ;) If no one knows of an implementation, could you tell me with which of the X11/extensions/ header files to start with? Look for xtrap (and xtest). Some pointers: xc/programs/xtrap/ xc/programs/Xserver/XTrap/ xc/doc/specs/Xext/record.ms (has nice overview of the area) xc/doc/hardcopy/Xext/xtest.PS.gz And then there is XSendEvent, of course... ;) -Peter ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

RE: LCD Panels Refresh Rates

Does it work correctly if you add Option NoDDC to your config file? What it comes down to is this I know the current panel can do 1280x1024. For modeset, I'm not doing any timing settings, just telling the BIOS what mode to go into. So, is there a right way to force xfree to allow standard modes 1280x1024 and below? Yes - use HorizSync and VertRefresh to tell it that your monitor can handle them :) -Peter ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
