SGI Xinerama API

[Stephane Rosa]

Hi,

I'm preparing an SGI package of fvwm and I have a couple issues
with your implementation of Xinerama.

SGI is currently developing the Xinerama library as per the
latest spec (Actually SGI is even beyond the spec for certain
things)

It sounds like you're using an old spec. A couple differences :

Bool XineramaActive() replaces char XineramaIsActive()

XineramaScreenInfo *XineramaQueryScreens(disp, count)
along with the typedef struct are not in the spec anymore.

An equivalent could be found by using XineramaGetScreenCount
and XineramaGetScreenSize, but the very latest spec will show
up a new function, XineramaGetData

so... a couple questions:

- how do we keep up on API spec changes (very often yet)
- is anybody following this very close ?
- I'll patch 2.4.2 for SGI use. Want the spec ?

Thanks!
Stephane

RE: FVWM: Statement on today's terrorist attack in the USA

[Stephane Rosa]

On 11-Sep-2001 Dominik Vogt threw those bytes in the wire :
  Today, many innocent lifes were ended forcefully by the savage
  terrorist attacks in New York, Washington D.C and Pittsburgh.
  peaking not only for myself but for the users and developers of
  fvwm, I wish to express the deepest sympathy with all victims,
  their beraved families, and all others who are affected.  Nothing
  can ever justify these atrocities.
  
  I plan to dedicate the upcoming fvwm-2.4.1 release to the victims
  of this disaster.  The following text will be included in the
  ANNOUNCE mail for the release, followed by the names of everybody
  who wants to be included:
  
This release is dedicated to the victims of the terrorist attacks
in New York, Washington D.C and Pittsburgh on 11th of September,
2001.
  
  alphabetical list of names
  
and all other users and developers of fvwm.
  
  I ask everybody to allow me to add his or her name to the list.
  Please reply to me or fvwm-workers@fvwm.org if I may do so.

This is a very good idea. I'd be glad to have my name as well
Thanks very much.

Stephane Rosa

  
  Bye
  
  Dominik ^_^  ^_^
