Well, when this error occurs, these are usually the only lines present in XFree86.0.log. When the X server crashes once before it installed his signal handlers, it leaves the /tmp/.X0-lock and the /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 socket around, and all subsequent tries give the above error. So, buddy, you need to remove /tmp/.X0-lock and /tmp/.X11-unix/* and try again. Then send the contents of /var/log/XFree86.0.log that contains the real information about the crashing server.

In previous versions Red Hat supplied both XFree86 v3 and XFree86 v4, with the former using /etc/X11/XFree86 and the later using /etc/X11/XFree86-v4. In RH 8.0 XFree86 v4 uses /etc/X11/XFree86, which might well refer to XF86_S3 if the config hasn't been rebuilt (and it might well not be). -- Dr. Andrew C.

Re: [XFree86] Speedo and the Radeon 7000
I don't make the Speedo fonts available to X and I have no problems. It sounds like you're having trouble loading the Speedo module for some reason (I have no idea why a hardware upgrade would cause that, except for the fact that you may be using a new driver), which is used for serving up Speedo fonts to the X server. Try commenting it out in the "Module" section of your XF86Config-4 file if you don't mind not using these fonts, and you may as well comment out the speedo fontpath if you do that. Otherwise, you'll have to figure out why this modules isn't loading properly.

[XFree86] Speedo and the Radeon 7000
I have installed a Radeon 7000 PCI in my Phoebe-3 (RH 8.0.94) system. After the upgrade of the card X refused to start. My system would lock and required the three-finger-salute. Through experimentation I have established that the problem occurs when X tries to load Speedo. I understand that speedo is a font backend. My questions are: Is speedo the "new" method of rendering fonts or the "outgoing" method? Does anyone know of a work-around to get it running? Is having no speedo fonts even something I should worry about? TIA Bill ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

[XFree86] x stopped event - xlib bug?
I have a daemon programmed with xlib that use X to display informations in a "override redirect" windows when X is running. But it crashes when X is stopped (or restarted of course, i.e. in case of log out) and don't receive any event from X. In fact, it crashes when sending request to a dead X server because it hasn't been notified of its dead. Is there a bug in xlib? If not, how can I prevent the daemon crash?

The hardware came out just before, or just after Red Hat Linux 8.0 was released. ATI provided patches to the XFree86 project to add support for this hardware, which eventually went into CVS and is first supported now in XFree86 4.3.0 which was just released last week. XFree86 4.3.0, which will be part of the next Red Hat Linux release, and is currently part of Red Hat Linux (phoebe) beta release, is required for support for this video hardware.

Lionel I too seem to recall seeing this before on the list Lionel and it baffled me then as it does now. I suspect that the OP is either not using Red Hat 8.0 or else that they've added or deleted XFree86 components from the out-of-the-box install. If I do a search for documentation on this on my Red Hat 8.0 installation I find the following: [ofeeley]$ less /usr/share/doc/redhat-release-8.0/RELEASE-NOTES-i386 "Legacy XFree86 3.3.6 video hardware support has now been removed from the distribution and is no longer supported. XFree86 4.2.0 is now the only X server shipped with Red Hat Linux." It then goes on to say that if there is no XFree86 4.x driver available _or_ it doesn't work properly it tries to use VESA. Failing that it tries to use VGA. So, I have no idea how the OP got this error message. (p.s.

[XFree86] error log report
Hi I'm a relative Linux newbie and was trying to get a RedHat 7.2 install going.I just bought a new system that is going to be a small webserver and windows file server, the motherboard for the system is a Gigabyte K7 Trition GA-7VKMLS with on board sound/video/lan. I can't seem to startX and I've been trying to fix it for 2 days.I've looked at the Gigabyte Site and they have a bunch of windows drivers but no Linux so then I searched google and found http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html#download , downloaded a driver for the onboard graphics but it still doesn't accept the myriad of settings I've been trying.

It's merely a matter of having both screens point to the same area, eg. from the ServerLayout section: Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 Screen 1 "Screen1" 0 0 Note though that in Xinerama the cursor will only appear on one head. That is due to a Xinerama implementation issue. Mark. ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Is this just Jesse, I'm after the same problem for about two weeks now and felt I had to answer just to tell you there are others that suffer in the same way. I'm thru the truetype hazzle as you are - and regret that I've tried. (xfstt could stop Mozilla from responding) What I would like to know - now - is, where does Mozilla 1.2.1 (and some other applications on debian/unstable with xfree86 4.2.1-6 and gnome 2.2) think it should get it's basic font from (not the html fonts), e.g. to display the menu bar or the email address. You are not able to configure basic fonts in Mozilla - because Mozilla is a window on X (or sawfish? or gnome?). Agree. But I changed fonts at any place I could think of - no change to Mozilla, (gnome control center is the least place I would recommend) I tried several things. Currently I'm investigating something called "fontconfig" - but not sure that I'm looking at the right place. As a newbie it's a hazzle. No one likes to look at an ugly font - even if your are a linux evangelist. But it' seems to be very hard to give a winning guideline for X (et.al.) to get you thru fonts. I love to work in gterm - because I learned where to change the font. Rolf ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

XF86_S3 is one of the separate servers that existed before XFree86-4.x.x which is what shipped with Red Hat 8.0, so I don't see how that can be your server. Try reconfiguring with "redhat-config-xfree86". Read the RELEASE-NOTES and all the relevant Red Hat supplied documentation.

[XFree86] Radeon 7200 display glitches in XFree86 4.1.0 and 4.3.0
As per the subject line, I'm getting some screen garbage. The display is usable but not perfect. The glitches look like this: http://www.openface.ca/~nephtes/scratch/radeon-glitch-2.png It's not always that bad, I deliberately exacerbated the problem to get that shot by dragging the window around. There seem to be some critical "bad" areas on the screen which are always the wrong colour, and the resulting "stains" follow a window around when it's dragged, creating the effect shown in the screenshot. I originally noticed this in 4.1.0 but it's still happening in 4.3.0. I was really surprised that it's showing up in screen shots. Any ideas?

The driver needs the adapter's BIOS so that its initialisation entry point can be emulated to initialise the adapter. From a power-up state, all ATI adapters need to be initialised in very adapter-specific ways. To duplicate this code in the driver is unrealistic and impossible to maintain. Your motherboard's system BIOS contains the video BIOS for the onboard adapter. By the time the system BIOS loads the OS, the onboard video BIOS remains accessible by the CPU if, and only if, the onboard video is the primary. Eventually, we will do what Windows can be made to do: make a copy of the onboard video BIOS while it's the primary and use the copy otherwise. There are a number of issues that need ironing out before that happens. So, for now, I repeat: you are out of luck.

[XFree86] support for Vietnamese: XIM?
Hi, The current XFree86 release (4.3.0) offers support for the input of Vietnamese characters in UTF-8 locales using the Compose mechanism: Compose ' or dead_acute => acute accent (ascending tone) Compose ` or dead_grave => grave accent (descending tone) Compose ^ or dead_circumflex => circumflex accent Compose ! or dead_dotbelow => dot below Compose ? or dead_hook => hook above Compose + or dead_horn => horn Vietnamese speakers pointed out to me that this is unwieldy due to the massive usage of accents in Vietnamese and to the common usage of input methods (for MS Windows) mapping oo => o with circumflex aa => a with circumflex es => a with acute accent etc... Do some similar input methods exist for Unix? Is somebody working on this? The Compose mechanism looks ok to input short sentences or proper citations of Vietnamese names, but not for the input of a large body of text, where such an input method would be needed.

I have an Intel 845G motherboard running SuSE 8.1 and have upgraded XFree86 4.3.0RC1 and am trying to get widescreen support for running with plasma screens.

[XFree86] The Uncertainty Principle Is Untenable
please reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] thank you. THE UNCERTAINTY PRINCIPLE IS UNTENABLE By re-analysing Heisenberg's Gamma-Ray Microscope experiment and the ideal experiment from which the uncertainty principle is derived, it is actually found that the uncertainty principle can not be obtained from them. It is therefore found to be untenable. Key words: uncertainty principle; Heisenberg's Gamma-Ray Microscope Experiment; ideal experiment Ideal Experiment 1 Heisenberg's Gamma-Ray Microscope Experiment A free electron sits directly beneath the center of the microscope's lens (please see AIP page http://www.aip.org/history/heisenberg/p08b.htm or diagram below) . The circular lens forms a cone of angle 2A from the electron. The electron is then illuminated from the left by gamma rays--high energy light which has the shortest wavelength. These yield the highest resolution, for according to a principle of wave optics, the microscope can resolve (that is, "see" or distinguish) objects to a size of dx, which is related to and to the wavelength L of the gamma ray, by the expression: dx = L/(2sinA) (1) However, in quantum mechanics, where a light wave can act like a particle, a gamma ray striking an electron gives it a kick. At the moment the light is diffracted by the electron into the microscope lens, the electron is thrust to the right. To be observed by the microscope, the gamma ray must be scattered into any angle within the cone of angle 2A. In quantum mechanics, the gamma ray carries momentum as if it were a particle. The total momentum p is related to the wavelength by the formula, p = h / L, where h is Planck's constant. (2) In the extreme case of diffraction of the gamma ray to the right edge of the lens, the total momentum would be the sum of the electron's momentum P'x in the x direction and the gamma ray's momentum in the x direction: P' x + (h sinA) / L', where L' is the wavelength of the deflected gamma ray. In the other extreme, the observed gamma ray recoils backward, just hitting the left edge of the lens. In this case, the total momentum in the x direction is: P''x - (h sinA) / L''. The final x momentum in each case must equal the initial x momentum, since momentum is conserved. Therefore, the final x momenta are equal to each other: P'x + (h sinA) / L' = P''x - (h sinA) / L'' (3) If A is small, then the wavelengths are approximately the same, L' ~ L" ~ L. So we have P''x - P'x = dPx ~ 2h sinA / L (4) Since dx = L/(2 sinA), we obtain a reciprocal relationship between the minimum uncertainty in the measured position, dx, of the electron along the x axis and the uncertainty in its momentum, dPx, in the x direction: dPx ~ h / dx or dPx dx ~ h. (5) For more than minimum uncertainty, the "greater than" sign may added. Except for the factor of 4pi and an equal sign, this is Heisenberg's uncertainty relation for the simultaneous measurement of the position and momentum of an object. Re-analysis To be seen by the microscope, the gamma ray must be scattered into any angle within the cone of angle 2A. The microscope can resolve (that is, "see" or distinguish) objects to a size of dx, which is related to and to the wavelength L of the gamma ray, by the expression: dx = L/(2sinA) (1) This is the resolving limit of the microscope and it is the uncertain quantity of the object's position. The microscope can not see the object whose size is smaller than its resolving limit, dx. Therefore, to be seen by the microscope, the size of the electron must be larger than or equal to the resolving limit. But if the size of the electron is larger than or equal to the resolving limit dx, the electron will not be in the range dx. Therefore, dx can not be deemed to be the uncertain quantity of the electron's position which can be seen by the microscope, but deemed to be the uncertain quantity of the electron's position which can not be seen by the microscope. To repeat, dx is uncertainty in the electron's position which can not be seen by the microscope. To be seen by the microscope, the gamma ray must be scattered into any angle within the cone of angle 2A, so we can measure the momentum of the electron. dPx is the uncertainty in the electron's momentum which can be seen by microscope. What relates to dx is the electron where the size is smaller than the resolving limit. When the electron is in the range dx, it can not be seen by the microscope, so its position is uncertain. What relates to dPx is the electron where the size is larger than or equal to the resolving limit .The electron is not in the range dx, so it can be seen by the microscope and its position is certain. Therefore, the electron which relates to dx and dPx respectively is not the same. What we can see is the electron where the size is larger than or equal to the resolving limit dx and has a certain position, dx = 0. Quantum mechanics does
