[Newbie]Reverse Video on Radeon Mobility
Hi all, I have a Compaq Presario 2700 with a Radeon Mobility 32mb video card. The device driver I am using is the ati one. Everything runs fine, but If I try to play Tuxracer, it loads in reverse video, black is white, blues are a kind of brown, and yellow is bluish! Has anyone got a solution to this?

I have tried PATH=$PATH:/home/ra. I have tried PATH=+:/home/ra.. they both work...temporarily. I want the PATH variable to STAY when I change it. Every time I reboot, it reverts back to the original PATH. Do I have to go into the file where it is located? Do I need a different syntax?

[Newbie]Problem w/ last XFree fix
Hello all, I applied the patch to XFree 4.2.1 (4.2.1-mit-shm-security.patch), recompiled with exactly the same options, and installed it over the 4.2.1. Right after that, I noticed some problems: - the transparent konsole from KDE 3.0.3 comes garbled (it gets the pixels from the background, since the colors are the same, but they're mixed up) - Mozilla doesn't start anymore, well, the process starts, and leaks memory, I killed it when it was at 400 MiB, but displays nothing. My system is a Solaris 8 x86, recently patched. I haven't had time yet to investigate more, but since the only modification I made is this fix, I deeply suspect it. I'm going to try to compile the 4.2.1 without it to check as soon as possible, but I'd like to know if somebody else encountered similar problems ?

[Newbie]Where can I find patches for XFree86
Hi, Hello, I find that, inside the xfree86 package from RH, there is lot of patch, is that all patches from RH, or part of the patches is floating on the ML, or there is some repository to hold this fix/patch??

[Newbie]Accessing server from another user on localhost (no TCP)
Hi everybody, I have a running X server, launched from one user account in my Linux box, with the following command-line: startx -- -nolisten tcp Now, I need to execute a graphic app as another user (for instance, 'root' or whoever). I try to type: export DISPLAY=:0 java -jar myapp.jar And I get this error: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to server ... I would like to know how can I use the xauth or xhosts (I would prefer the first one) to allow other users of the system to use that X server Best regards, and thanks in advance, Miguel Ángel ___ Newbie mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
[Newbie]Microtouch touchpad configuration
Hello, I've seen requests about the configuration of touchpads in the archives, but didn't found any response. I've configured a touchpad using the "mutouch" driver (Linux Mandrake 9) in XF86Config-4, and I can drive the mouse. Unfortunatly it doesn't cover the whole screen! I've tried a enormous number of combinations of Min and Max X and Y values, but either the pointer can't reach a border, or it reach it far before my finger touch the border of the pad. The best config I found is like: Option "MinX" "1400" Option "MaxX" "15000" Option "MinY" "5200" Option "MaxY" "12000" instead of the 0-16383 I've seen on the net in an example. But of course it's not good, as Y coords don't match the real coordinates. (I can't click on what I see). I'm in 1024x768 pixels, and the above example of 0 to 16383 seems much like a centered 800x600 screen. So I'd like help for - understanding the logic of Min/Max coordinates. - getting a working example.

[Newbie]Installing Xfree86 4.2.1 under *BSD
from a command shell not running X (I do suggest that you log out all running X sessions) . su (if not already there) sh Xinstall.sh XFree86 -configure (or is it --configure) Once satisfied, I still retain my windows tendancies and reboot...yeah, I know. I swing way too much between 3 worlds...ah the life of a sysadmin in a heterogenous enviroment. Thanks to those who helped me with my nVidia issue. The resolution was to rebuild the kernel to the latest Linux release and the issue cleared. Sean Patzer When the divinity looks unto humanity, what does humanity see ?Do you Yahoo!?

[Newbie]In requards to responded permanent PATH setting solutions
thanks you all, and.. 1) "Jacky, Lau" solution: export PATH=$PATH:/path/to this is fine for making it global and accessible to other shells, but not permanent 2) Fredrik solution - setting PATH in bashrc works just fine

[Newbie]ATI Radeon 7500 All-in-wonder troubles
Greetings good people. I have the following system: ASUS A7A266 motherboard; AMD XP1700 processor; 256M ram; 60G Maxtor hd; Crystal soundcard; Linksys NIC. I am running RH7.3. When I install the ATI AIW7500 card, X is VERY unstable - lots of hangs, crashes, and all that icky stuff. The same system runs fine when I put my old Voodoo 3 card in. I have read the info on ATI stuff on the gatos project website, but to tell the truth I don't really understand it very well. I'm afraid to try installing the drivers from that site because I'm not sure I understand the sketchy instructions. (Duh:-P) Has anyone got an AIW Radeon 7500 running well on RH7.3 or some other linux distro? Thanks much. - Dave - ___ Newbie mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
