This was one of the patches suggested to the X.org IPv6 review which we declined to include in our patch set, but which got checked into the XFree86 CVS anyway. We were told that separately binding to both is the usual habit on OpenBSD, while simply binding to IPv6 and letting it handle both was the way we coded it to work, and had it working on both Solaris and Linux. The source code for exim, a mail transport agent which supports IPv6 on a significant number of platforms, contains the following comment (in src/daemon.c): /* Otherwise we set up things to listen on all interfaces. In an IPv4 world, this is just a single, empty address. On systems with IPv6, several different implementation approaches have been taken. This code is now supposed to work with all of them. The point of difference is whether an IPv6 socket that is listening on all interfaces will receive incoming IPv4 calls or not. . On Solaris, an IPv6 socket will accept IPv4 calls, and give them as mapped addresses. However, if an IPv4 socket is also listening on all interfaces, calls are directed to the appropriate socket. . On (some versions of) Linux, an IPv6 socket will accept IPv4 calls, and give them as mapped addresses, but an attempt also to listen on an IPv4 socket on all interfaces causes an error. . On OpenBSD, an IPv6 socket will not accept IPv4 calls. You have to set up two sockets if you want to accept both kinds of call. . FreeBSD is like OpenBSD, but it has the IPV6_V6ONLY socket option, which can be turned off, to make it behave like the versions of Linux described above. . I heard a report that the USAGI IPv6 stack for Linux has implemented IPV6_V6ONLY. So, what we do is as follows: (1) At this point we set up two addresses, one containing : to indicate an IPv6 wildcard address, and an empty one to indicate an IPv4 wildcard address. (2) Later, when we create the IPv6 socket, we set IPV6_V6ONLY if that option is defined. (3) We listen on the v6 socket first. If that fails, there is a serious error. (4) We listen on the v4 socket second. If that fails with the error EADDRINUSE, assume we are in the situation where just a single socket is permitted, and ignore the error. */ --- I'm suprised at how broken the X.Org IPv6 code has proven. -- Andrew C Aitchison ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
X KeyRelease problem
Hello all, I'll try to make this short and to the point, but I can't promise anything. If someone on this list thinks this question shouldn't be on this list, let me know, and I'll drop it. Thanks. The problem concerns my tweaking of a window manager (evilwm). Now, I don't want everyone to go off on a 'my window manager is better than yours' rant -- my question has to do the way X handles a key release. Now, the thing I'm trying to do is make the cycling through the windows re-order themselves after all the Alt+Tab's have done (kinda like Windows). The reason I want to do this, is that it's a major pain in the arse to cycle through all the windows to get to the one I want. Plus, if I want to flip through two in quick succession, I don't want to have to cycle through _all_ the rest to get to the one I want. Just a little background here, but as you may guess, the window list is in a linked-list format. Which means that the you go through the list whenever you go through the windows linked-list with Alt+Tab. Basically, what I want to do is re-order the list when the Alt and Tab are released. Now, my problem is that X isn't notifying the program, evilwm, that the Alt key has been released. What I do is, at the first Tab KeyPress, I grab the Alt key with: XGrabKey(dpy, XKeysymToKeycode(dpy, \ XK_Alt_L), AnyModifier, \ screens[0].root, False, \ GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync); Then at the Alt KeyRelease event, I ungrab the Alt key. Pretty easy, right? However, the Alt KeyRelease isn't always sent (sometimes it is, with particular combinations of Alt+Tab which I won't go into, but usually not). I've been able to work around part of the problem. Whenever another KeyPress comes in, I see if it's _not_ Tab and if the Alt has been grabbed, then I ungrab the Alt key, re-order the windows, and XTEST the key again. That seems to handle the major problem. However, that just leaves me with a thornier one. If the user wants to flip back and forth between windows, they'll come back with a Alt+Tab combo. This means the above work-around _doesn't_ work. The Alt won't be released, the windows won't be re-ordered, and the XTEST doesn't get sent. So my questions are: 1) Why doesn't X send the Alt KeyRelease? And how can I (without changing the X server) get it to? Is my GrabKey incorrect? Do I have to redo the key repeat setting for the Alt key? BTW, this non-KeyRelease sending on Alt release happens on Slack9.0 (X ver. 4.3.0) and OpenBSD 3.2 (X ver. 4.2.1), so I'd say it's not an OS-specific prob. 2) If someone knows a window manager which does window re-ordering on the X level (KDE and Gnome are too abstracted from X to help me) after window switching, I'd like to know it. I've take a look at weewm, aewm, and many others besides, so if you've got any suggestions, I'd be glad to hear'em. BTW, if there's anything that'll help you help me figure this out, I'll be glad to get it to you. Thanks. David ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Now my interpretation is that the second point above refers to the frame size and the driver implementation (video modes)has nothing to do with it. Is this interpretation of mine is correct? I doubt it, but I'm confused by your mixing of graphics and video. When you say a frame rate of 30fps is required, what are you talking about? Do you mean video coming in through the zoom video port? Or are you talking about ordinary software-decoded movies? Tells us WHAT you have to support at 30fps, and perhaps we can offer suggestions. Second question is that, how do I achive the frame rate of 30fps? 30fps for what? I have programmed the BitBLT engine for the card,but that also puts only 64Kb data on screen in on shot,so always I need to divide the Image into 64KB parts.

---BeginMessage--- (todd and matthieu, if this does not go through please forward it) I wasn't suggesting to use it on Linux. My suggestion was to revert to using a single socket on all platforms and use the above code to enable accepting IPv4 connections on *BSD. there is security risk in using single socket, as outlined in draft-cmetz-v6ops-v4mapped-api-harmful-00.txt draft-itojun-v6ops-v4mapped-harmful-01.txt therefore, there are platforms which does not have IPV6_V6ONLY sysctl, and there are platforms which does not work at all with single socket (IPv4 packet does not get routed to IPv6). therefore, i suggest - on all platforms try to open 2 sockets, AF_INET6 then AF_INET - ignore error from socket(2) and bind(2) on both cases - raise error only if both attempt fails by doing this, - userland code works with IPv4-only kernel, IPv6-only kernel or IPv4/v6 dual stack kernel (independence from kernel configuration) - with linux IPv4/v6 dual stack case, it will use single AF_INET6 socket (with security risk described above) - other platforms should work with two sockets itojun ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel ---End Message---

I didn't check/produce any code but the easiest way to implement in linux
is something like (if the user does not specify --nolisten):
bind to ipv6
if it works ok
otherwise fail silently
bind to ipv4
if it works ok
otherwise fail with error message.
specifing --nolisten the fail conditions might change their behaviour.
This is basically what i did when i first tried the ipv6 kame patch for X.

Re: IPv6 problems on Linux
I've made the patch below which takes care of the problem for me.
I have tried several different versions, I didn't really like any
of them.
This code is one of the rare pieces of code that is rather well
structured and relatively free of any ugly hacks. This fix makes
it a lot uglier, what I particularly don't like is that it now
depends on the order in which the listeners for the different
protocols are created.
I've tried several different solutions including the use if
getaddrinfo(), everything made this code more ugly.
Any better solutions are welcome. If there are none, I'll commit this
code.

RE: Full screen page flip
Hi! Loic, Thanx for the reply. I think I got the concept. 1.Is this the double buffering??? Yes indeed. Triple would be to have one more buffer: 1 displayed 1 waiting to be displayed 1 in which you render 2.I guess can be achieved by a frame buffer to framebuffer copy using the BitBLT engine??? Am I right?? Nope. Thats the whole trick: you do not copy anything. You change one (or two or three) register(s) and you are done. No bitblitting, no copy. Fast and efficient. This works only for fullscreen because you need to render the whole screen. You can also copy the second buffer in the image, if you are not fullscreen, using bitblitting, but that's not the same concept (and it's usually far slower). 3.Will this help me in achieving a frame rate of 30fps to play a software decoded video. This highly depends on your hardware. You did not say anything about your hardware: processor, memory, FSB (of processor and memory). If your processor can produce 30 frames of RGB images per second, double buffering is THE way to go if you can afford it: you hardly slow the rendering while doing so. If you copy the image from offscreen memory to onscreen memory, you slow things down (usually). If you render your images is system memory, then copy them to offscreen video memory then blit them onscreen, you make a lot of copies. (and one more if you do not use shared memory extension). Now if your system is fast enough, it can render 30fps with many image copies in between. You should try to see how many frames per second you get with a simple approach: render in a pixmap and display it.

When that buffer is finished, you flip them so that the second becomes visible and the first is free for drawing. 2.I guess can be achieved by a frame buffer to framebuffer copy using the BitBLT engine??? Am I right?? Not at 30 fps, no. A 1024x768 RGB24 image is 2.4 megabytes. Drawing that 30 times per second exceeds the practical capacity of the PCI bus. 3.Will this help me in achieving a frame rate of 30fps to play a software decoded video. What application software are you using to do the drawing? Programs like xine and mplayer expect to decode their frames into an overlay surface, using the xvideo extension in XFree86. The applications decode the frames directly into a surface in the frame buffer outside of the visible region, usually in a YUV format. The xvideo code in the driver sets up the overlay hardware to display this on the screen. Most overlay hardware can scale the overlay image as it displays, so a 320x240 decoded movie can be viewed at 1024x768. That can be done at 30fps. -- - Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza Boekelheide, Inc. ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
Re: IPv6 problems on Linux
Fabio Massimo Di Nitto writes: I didn't check/produce any code but the easiest way to implement in linux is something like (if the user does not specify --nolisten): bind to ipv6 if it works ok otherwise fail silently bind to ipv4 if it works ok otherwise fail with error message. specifing --nolisten the fail conditions might change their behaviour. This is basically what i did when i first tried the ipv6 kame patch for X. The Xserverallows one or more protocols to fail unless the -nopn option is given. You are pretty much suggesting to make this option the default with allowing ipv6 to fail silently. That's possible. I'd like to hear more opinions on that.

In the PC, workstation, and simulator spaces there are fewer graphics hardware vendors today, and their products are more compatible, than at any time in the past five to ten years. I agree that graphics hardware hasn't been completely commoditized, but it sure looks like the trend is strong in that direction. I'd expect the same trend to carry through to embedded devices (as the PC folks leverage their technologies in the new markets). I'd also argue that programmable GPUs with a common programming interface increase the tendency toward commoditization. The business model for graphics apps running on various vendors' GPUs begins to look a lot like that of ordinary application software running on various implementations of the x86.

If you believe that lower device/system costs lead to higher volumes of sales, and software cost is an appreciable fraction of the device/system cost, then commoditizing the software leads to higher revenue for the hardware vendors. That's one reason Linux gained a foothold in the embedded space. Maybe you're thinking primarily about driver software. Graphics vendors do add a tremendous amount of value in their drivers, but even there parts of the software are commoditized when it makes economic sense. Perhaps the commonly-used code in XAA is a good example. | The goal is to have your graphics kill your competitors, and that | is done by preventing commoditization of software and hardware. | It involves outfeaturing and outperforming your competitor and protecting | your software and hardware IP. Certainly that used to be true. Judging by what I hear from app developers, it's getting less true all the time. They really want to stick to standardized functionality that's available with decent performance on all platforms. Their return-on-investment is highest if the hardware is commoditized. And Microsoft maintains its position in part by playing the hardware vendors off against one another. MS wants the best price and performance for the features in its APIs, not for features that aren't part of those APIs. That leaves less room for the hardware vendors to compete on features.

I don't like the peppering of this code with more OS #ifdef's. I think
the approach espoused by Itojun, Todd, Matthieu and Andrew is better.
So maybe you can tell what the big difference is?
It tries to preserve more of the old behavoir with
respect to the -nolisten and -pn/-nopn option.
You can of course remove the 'defined (Linux)' as this
patch should work for all systems as it allows
bind() for ipv4 to fail silently.
I've attached a corrected version below.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I always thought the XFree86 nolisten
code was overly complicated, and this just seems to make it worse. When
we added -nolisten to Xsun, we got multiple listeners for free with a
simpler implementation, contained entirely in utils.c:

Re: IPv6 problems on Linux
From: Matthias Scheler [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Wed, Jul 23, 2003 at 01:48:08PM +0200, Egbert Eich wrote: I wasn't suggesting to use it on Linux. My suggestion was to revert to using a single socket on all platforms and use the above code to enable accepting IPv4 connections on *BSD. Yes, I understand. I was just looking for a decend way of making things work on Linux. Using a single socket should work on Linux according to your observations. And it definitely works on Solaris. So adding some conditional code which uses setsockopt() with IPV6_V6ONLY on platforms which have IPV6_V6ONLY defined should work arround the platform. The danger is that on systems where V4-mapped addresses are disabled an attacker might just manage to bind to either the V6 socket, or the V4 socket and possibly execute a MitM attack. But we would get complaints from the IPv6 folks which consider accepting IPv4 connections on IPv6 listeners a problem. See here: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-itojun-v6ops-v4mapped-harmful-01.txt So we probably need to implement heuristics similar to the one described by Andrew Aitchison. The issues that the draft brings up are irrelevant to XFree86. They are strictly OS/firewall issues. If those problems can occur on a system, the system is already swiss cheese; and nothing XFree86 can do will alleviate things. The draft was sent to BugTraq, and everyone who responded brought the exact same issue up: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/289420/2002-08-20/2002-08-26/2 http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/289409/2002-08-20/2002-08-26/2 http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/289375/2002-08-20/2002-08-26/2 http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/289364/2002-08-20/2002-08-26/2 If you want to see both sides and the rest of the thread: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/288622/2002-08-20/2002-08-26/1 -- (\___(\___(\__ --= 8-) EHM =-- __/)___/)___/) \ (| [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP 8881EF59 |) / \_ \ | _ -O #include stddisclaimer.h O- _ | / _/ \___\_|_/82 04 A1 3C C7 B1 37 2A*E3 6E 84 DA 97 4C 40 E6\_|_/___/ ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

[Fonts] opening core fonts with XftFontOpenXlfd
Hi, I try to make my first moves with Xft, and yet I am struggeling with the handling of core fonts ... If a pass a XLFD-pattern for a specific (core) font to XftFontOpenXlfd, it seems that I *always* only get back Xft fonts, no matter how good or bad they match. Even if a core font would match the XLFD much much better ... Here is some output of a small toy program that I wrote, that opens a font using XftFontOpenXlfd and shows the according Xft pattern using XftNameUnparsed: (gdb) run -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-60-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* unparsed: Courier 10 Pitch-6:style=Regular:slant=0:weight=100:pixelsize=8.33641:encoding=iso8859-1:core=False:antialias=True:xlfd=-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-60-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*:index=0:outline=True:scalable=True:rgba=0:render=True:minspace=False (gdb) run -*-charter-*-*-*-*-*-100-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* unparsed: Bitstream Charter-10:style=Regular:slant=0:weight=100:pixelsize=13.894:encoding=iso8859-1:core=False:antialias=True:xlfd=-*-charter-*-*-*-*-*-100-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*:index=0:outline=True:scalable=True:rgba=0:render=True:minspace=False (gdb) run -bh-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-10-100-75-75-m-60-iso8859-1 unparsed: Courier 10 Pitch-10:style=Bold:slant=0:weight=200:pixelsize=10:encoding=iso8859-1:foundry=bh:core=False:antialias=True:xlfd=-bh-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-10-100-75-75-m-60-iso8859-1:index=0:outline=True:scalable=True:rgba=0:render=True:minspace=False All of the selected fonts are antialiased non-core fonts. Especially for the third pattern, I'd rather get the specified core font ... :-) So is there any way to tell Xft that *only* core fonts (i.e. old and ugly non-antialiased Xlib fonts) should be opened when using XftFontOpenXlfd?

Re: [XFree86] [XFree86 4.2.0] Problem in starting Xserver
As suggested by you, I have given driver = vesa in XF86Config file. I am getting different error screen when I run startx and the cursor also does not return back to command prompt ( Do I need to run any other setup before running startx). It actually looks like X started up fine, but one of the programs being run by startx is hanging instead of continuing. Try 'startx `which xterm`' (replace xterm with whatever terminal emulator you have installed) and see if that starts up fine. If you have a custom ~/.xinitrc or such, make sure that all the programs in it except the window manager (or whatever you use) are started with '' so that they're run in the background. For example, xterm wmaker instead of xterm wmaker since the former will cause an xterm to start up and the script to not continue until that xterm is exited.

[XFree86] small fonts
hi, using XFree86 4.3.0, a 17° Monitor and a resolution of 1280x960 (101x101 dpi). If i use KDE, the fonts in KDE-Applications are ok, but if i start an application like mozilla, gimp, xterm the fonts are very small. Starting KDE with startx kde -- -dpi 200 the fonts in KDE are very large, but there is no effect on the above-named applications. If i start xterm with xterm -fa Courier then it seems to evaluate the current resolution (100 dpi - ok, 200 dpi - very large).

[XFree86] SiS 650... on RED HAT 9
Hi, I recently install RED HAT Linux 9 on a pc (Pentium 4) with a graphic card SiS 650... I use gnome inferface.. But unfortunetly seems that the original package didn´t have the drivers for that specific card, so I went to this site, in order to find some useful information.. I have download the last version of Xfree86 (4.3.0) and install it. But when I go to configure the screen seems that they aren´t new additions of graphics cards (SiS 650 is not there, and the version 4.3.0 of xfree86 says that supports this card), I only try to download the minimum files required for Xfree86... do i need some more? Another question is about Independent Driver Releases, I have also download the sis_drv.o file and placed in the specific directory that overwrite the previous file... But I don´t know if is only need this operation... (seems that only this didn´t solve the problem). I don´t understand what you mean And use the new 'XFree86' binary, which should be replaced with the 'XFree86' executable that's in /usr/X11R6/bin and if I need also to download the DRI Kernel modules and follow the command make -f Makefile.linux ... If possible, please me a step by step tutorial in order to solve this problem.. I´m currently using VESA driver... I need to put the screen resolution in 1024x768 and play some applications/games that required some specific graphics hardware contact...

[XFree86] X in MDK 9.1 restarts without a reason
Hi guys, i use mandrake 9.1 and X 4.3.0
Everything went well for couple of days until X started to restart and drop me
into login screen.
It happened both with user and root accounts, both with KDE and IceWM, both
with MdkDM and GDM (display managers), so I'm sure it's X-related.
It happens randomely sometimes in 2 minutes sometimes in 10 or more.
I haven't install/reinstall any applications, it just happened to me one
morning.
Right now I'm writting this e-mail under KDE and am awaiting every second for
X to restart, so I'll be fast:)
After these strange restarts, I started to get computer hangs even before
Login screen appeared, sometimes it just hangs, sometimes CapsLock and
ScrollLock blink (so called Oops). I even encountered an Oops in a bere-naked
console after these events. I thought it might be a problem with my memory so
I issued command: grep -r a /usr (recursive scan of every file in /usr
directory) to load my memory as much as possible and yes it crashed with
Oops.
Right now it doesn't restart for already a half an hour, but I'm sure it will.
Probably it is bacused I've set boot options to ACPI=off and NOAPIC, but I was
just pointing my finger in heaven (I doubt that exactly this helped).
So,please if You are reading this and encounter the same problem and You are
not a developer/programmer, post Your message as a reply to this one. So
we'll gather some more information.
If You are a developer who understands X internals, then please point me to
any files on how to track this behavior, because common files say absolutely
nothing about this I've checked:
{HOME}/xsession-errors
/var/log/ all-X-related-files-within
they don't say anything unusual like ERROR or WARNING
Thank YOU.

Re: [XFree86] X in MDK 9.1 restarts without a reason
Everything went well for couple of days until X started to restart and drop me into login screen. Have you checked your hardware? Make sure that the CPU fan is spinning properly, that you don't have any loose PCI cards or memory modules, etc. It happened both with user and root accounts, Please never run X login environments as root. The less run as root, the better, due to the power you have under the root account. If you need to run X apps as root, I suggest that you use 'sudo' or 'su' from an existing X session instead of logging in as root. After these strange restarts, I started to get computer hangs even before Login screen appeared, sometimes it just hangs, sometimes CapsLock and ScrollLock blink (so called Oops). Sounds like a hardware problem, though one never can be sure. Random kernel panics (oopses) and silent lockups though - I'd suspect hardware as the #1 likely cause. I even encountered an Oops in a bere-naked console after these events. I thought it might be a problem with my memory so I issued command: grep -r a /usr (recursive scan of every file in /usr directory) to load my memory as much as possible and yes it crashed with Oops. Try booting up with memtest86 and see what happens. Right now it doesn't restart for already a half an hour, but I'm sure it will. Probably it is bacused I've set boot options to ACPI=off and NOAPIC, but I was just pointing my finger in heaven (I doubt that exactly this helped). Could've. Also test your hard disk, since bad sectors in the swap partition can cause these sorts of problems. If You are a developer who understands X internals, then please point me to any files on how to track this behavior, because common files say absolutely nothing about this I've checked: Doesn't sound like an X problem at all, actually.

[XFree86] Xterm does not die
Hi all ;), I'm facing a problem with xterm processes that still exists even if X has been terminated. If the Xterm is launched from the console or from xinitrc, when X are interrupted, the xterm process also finishes. But if i launch the xterm process from the window manager (i'm using pawm wm), the process becomes a child of pawm. Then when the window manager is finished with an TERM signal, the xterm process becomes orphan and is reparented by init, just like any other process launched by pawm. The difference is that, while all processes die when the X connection dies, the xterm process is still running. Ask me for more info if you need it.

I seem to remember that digging through the output of 'dmesg' will normally tell you.

Re: [XFree86] Linux 8.0 server GUI crash
For the GeForce4 Ti you'll either want to use NVIDIA's binary Linux drivers, which will work with your current XFree86 version, or you'll want to upgrade to XFree86 4.3 and use the nv driver. With the nv driver in XFree86 4.3 you may need to specify Option CrtcNumber 1 if it is displaying a black screen. The driver has a difficult time figuring out which head to use when a flat panel is attached, and the DVI connector is frequently on connector 1 rather than 0. Mark.

[XFree86] Laptop touchpad and XFree86 4.3.0
Hi, I recently upgraded my Linux system to Pink Tie 9 (basically Red Hat without the trademark icons). This has kernel 2.4.20, XFree86 4.3.0. My laptop is a Compaq Armada E500 which has a touchpad (Synaptics???). This worked perfectly well under my previous system which was XFree86 4.2.1, using the standard mouse driver on /dev/psaux using protocol PS/2. However, the latest XFree has problems... On startup, resume from suspend, or whenever switching to the X virtual terminal from another, the touchpad and keyboard become unresponsive and the Num Lock/Caps Lock indicator lights flash for half a minute or so... this seems to be correlated with messages in /var/log/messages: Jul 23 20:39:49 ceiriog1 kernel: Keyboard timed out[1] Jul 23 20:41:44 ceiriog1 last message repeated 10 times Eventually the X screen appears and the windows redraw, but sometimes even so the pointer is frozen. I have also tried using the synaptics driver for the mouse, but this fails even to initialize the device. I am not using gpm, the mouse is on /dev/psaux, and the utilities such as tpconfig and test-pad in the synaptics driver package seem to work without problems. What am I doing wrong - or do I have a hardware incompatibility? I attach my XF86Config and log files. -- Peter Wainwright [EMAIL PROTECTED] XFree86 Version 4.3.0 (Red Hat Linux release: 4.3.0-2) Release Date: 27 February 2003 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.6 Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.20-3bigmem i686 [ELF] Build Date: 27 February 2003 Build Host: porky.devel.redhat.com Before reporting problems, check http://www.XFree86.Org/ to make sure that you have the latest version.

Re: [XFree86] Linux 8.0 server GUI crash
Mark, I thought that I would mention that yesterday I upgraded my RH9 to XFree86 4.3 and the NVIDIA driver failed. RH offered to reconfigure the driver to nv and everything worked. XFree86.log error [GLX]:Failed to add GLX extension(NVIDIA XFree86 driver not found) I've been watching the list to see how many people might have experienced similar problems. Thanks.

With the nv driver in XFree86 4.3 you may need to specify Option CrtcNumber 1 if it is displaying a black screen. The driver has a difficult time figuring out which head to use when a flat panel is attached, and the DVI connector is frequently on connector 1 rather than 0. Mark.

[XFree86] Onboard video and PCI card
Hi, I'm trying to install Red Hat 6.1 on an old system (I know its old, but I bought a book and it came with it-wanted to be able to follow along with the book). The specs are : P166 w/MMX 96 MB RAM Dell P780 17 CRT Onboard video (ATI Rage II - ati_m64) PCI video (SiS 6326 w/ 8MB) I have Disabled the video in BIOS and Put OS as NON PnP. I'm able to go through Text Install but when it came to detecting the video display, it only gives me the following as default and I cannot choose any other option: X probe results Video Card: ATI Mach 64 X Server: Mach64 Once I type startx, it tells me No Screens found at the bottom of a long message. I type lspci and it recognizes both ATI M64 AND SiS 6326 display adapters. How can I change this default to the SiS 6326 PCI at install? I actually ran xf86config in text mode and set my mouse, keyboard, monitor and video configurations. This created a file called xf86config. I chose XF86_SVGA as my server for SiS video card. However, one of the documents I read instructed me to: 1) Setup XF86_SVGA as my default server 2) Copy the XF86Config file to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 I checked both /usr/X11R6/bin/ and /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 and etc/X11 but I still see the XF86_Mach64 server listed in the directory. How should I overwrite this with XF86_SVGA and create a symbolic link to X? Thanks...
