[XFree86] Stuck at very low resolution

2004-03-02 Thread Mark
Hi. I am helping a friend install and configure XFree86 on FreeBSD. He 
had it working with his existing hardware, and then he wanted to 
reinstall FreeBSD on his new hard drive.

Once we got FreeBSD and XFree86 all installed and operational, we tried 
configuring it. In all config options, its set to 1024x768, but when he 
runs it, everything is VERY large on the screen...

We've tried deleting and re-adding the config files with xf86cfg and 
xf86cfg -textmode, and by adding the mode section to the config file 
manually with still no luck. He has an on-board video card.

This is XFree86 Version 4.3.0 on FreeBSD 4.9.

Any suggestions on how we can proceed in getting this configured?

Thanks a lot

[XFree86] 64bit XFree86 for ppc64 Linux?

2004-03-02 Thread Mahesh B
Hello All,

I have a ppc64 sytem with Debian woody. I have updated my kerenl with 2.6.3. Debian 
provides only 32 bit ppc port. So my xserver seems to be slow in 32 bit. I would like 
to build 64 bit XFree86 from the latest source (4.4). I have a 64 bit toolchain. But I 
have only 32 bit xlibs and other dependent libraries. 

Is there any way to build 64 bit XFree86 for my system. Is there any patch for this?

Thanks in advace.

Regards,
Mahesh

Exactly. It's just a bunch of text files, Python scripts, or
whatever, so what's the problem in providing them, even if as
as second choice ? None.

BTW, Slackware also includes Java. Patrick got a license from
SUN a long time ago.

I bet they'd still if Mozilla didn't exist.

IMHO this is not the point: even ATM you can run XFree86 w/o your vendor's
"approval", you have just to grab the sources and compile them by 
yourself. And
you're in completeley *freedom* do to that, AFAIK with all the 
distributions, as
no one forces you to use Debian|RedHat|Mandrake|* packages in place of 
sources.
But I think that in theory a distribution maintainer for XFree86 should know
XFree86 on that distribution better than any other XFree86 developer, so he's
the first address for any problem which could be specific to that 
distribution.
And IMHO this is surely a real added value.

On the other hand, even if XFree86 provides different package formats, how can
you be sure that they will be completely integrated in the different
distributions? I mean, about dependencies, platforms, libraries and so 
on... If
I install the XFree86 4.4.0 package on my Debian and some other software
installed don't work anymore because some conflicts? Should I manually compile
the non-working softwares or the XFree86 itself? Again, IMHO this is a
distribution-specific work, not an XFree86 one.
well if that's true this list gets a lot, a helluva lot, of distro specific 
questions.
personally i think that says a lot, a helluva lot, about the quality.

The answer is to bypass the middle man and go straight to the
source.  I'd like to see a range of package formats available from
the XFree86 ftp site so that people can more easily exercise their
freedom to run what they want without their vendor's "approval."
There seems to be something of a trend away from major vendors
providing support, and thus real added value, for individual users
anyway.


well i was thinking of making sun sparc tarballs.
i could upload them somewhere if so.

Would you mind posting your ebuild somewhere so others can use it?

I must have missed that, and I thought Gentoo looked like a reasonable
distribution.  I guess I'll just stay with Slackware if they are the
only ones that base choices on the usefulness of software rather than
personal opinions about the licenses.

Am I the only one who remembers when distributions used to include
Netscape Navigator?

Unless a Debian Developer specifies that a packagage requires  
"xserver-common (< 4.4)", which would royally steam me

Also, you'd have to match how each major distro packages XFree86.
Tossing it all, for example, into xfree86.deb would break everything
that depends on it.

I use a Compaq at work with Intel 845 (or something like) and under Windows 
you can have 1152x864 but X claims the card doesn't support it !! So assuming 
the XF86Config file is correct then maybe X simply does not support that 
resolution on that card. Anyway XF86Config (the Red Hat and Mandrake one is 
in /etc/X11) should have something like the following in it (probably better

Everyone can make their own choice.  I am interested in providing

I also want to let everyone here know that XFree86 is committed to

IMHO this is not the point: even ATM you can run XFree86 w/o your vendor's
"approval", you have just to grab the sources and compile them by yourself. And
you're in completeley *freedom* do to that, AFAIK with all the distributions, as

But I think that in theory a distribution maintainer for XFree86 should know
XFree86 on that distribution better than any other XFree86 developer, so he's
the first address for any problem which could be specific to that distribution.
And IMHO this is surely a real added value.

On the other hand, even if XFree86 provides different package formats, how can
you be sure that they will be completely integrated in the different
distributions? I mean, about dependencies, platforms, libraries and so on... If
I install the XFree86 4.4.0 package on my Debian and some other software
installed don't work anymore because some conflicts? Should I manually compile
the non-working softwares or the XFree86 itself? Again, IMHO this is a
distribution-specific work, not an XFree86 one.

partition created for linux swap file-logical partition created for linux '

there will only be one thread containg that) if you would like to 
seehere goes...first of all, i can only 
have a certain  number of primary partitions, one must be winxp, then 
theres linux, linux swap and linux \boot to choose from, which should be 
primary, should i reformat and try installing linux first to make sure the \boot 
is the first thing on the disk and to maybe cure any problems with linux i am 
having?should i use ext3 for the actual linux partition?i have just 
spent a heck of a long downloading the three disk iso's for redhat linux 9 and 
have burnt them to diski started the install process, it detects my graphics

check for errors-before doing the third time i deleted the linux partitons 
in windows (using partiton magic 8) and remade them and also made one for \boot

no errors on themi will try doing previous stuff again to try and rid \boot 
of errors (the partitions i had made before which i then remade are now 
apparently fine, the one i have just made is not fine, do you think i should

The answer is to bypass the middle man and go straight to the
source.  I'd like to see a range of package formats available from
the XFree86 ftp site so that people can more easily exercise their
freedom to run what they want without their vendor's "approval."
There seems to be something of a trend away from major vendors
providing support, and thus real added value, for individual users
anyway.

Gentoo announced, that it will not supply ebuilds for XFree86 with the new 
license. There's actually a long disussion in gentoo-user mailing list about 
this. I'm going to write my own ebuild now. Imho the only reason for gentoo 
doing this, is a political one :-(

[XFree86] Ati rage 128, font problem

2004-03-02 Thread peterxy
Hello

I installed Suse 9 (mandrake 9.2, 9.1) and by starting KDE or GNOME my 
fonts were huge. I found, that the config files for setting the size of 
fonts are in /home/user/.kde/share/config... / kdeglobals. There were the 
sizes of fonts normal (about 10-13). But after restarting X it was the 
same. That was on my computer, where i have ati rage xpert 99 (or 2000) 
wiht 16MB memory. Then i took the same linux installation from friends PC, 
where he had An 3dfx velocity 100, (and his linux was going well). I run 
his system on my pc, Yast recognized my new hardware (graphic card...) and 
set it. After that KDE started and the fonts were again huge (size about 50-
100)
I found out, that on mandrake 9.1 (dont know what version of Xfree is 
there), but there were not all font huge, just in some programs, like 
Openoffice...
Could you please help mi, how can i solve this problem?
thanks a lot

I suppose Gentoo won't have any problems either, since they are not
actually shipping the files.  Besides, I don't think they have any
silly political reasons stopping them.

Excerpt from your XFree86.0.log file:

Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from list!

Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'


This indicates the problem is that it cannot connect to your X Font Server
(xfs). Restart your xfs (/sbin/service xfs restart) and should be fine. This
service should start with runlevel 5 (Red Hat Linux's default run level for
graphic login). You can check that with 'chkconfig --list xfs', and make any
necessary changes with 'ntsysv'.

[XFree86] X starts slowly on C&T F68554

2004-03-02 Thread Robert . Butora

Hi all,

it takes about 10 sec for X to startup (on a notebook 266MHz Pentium MMX).
After startx, X switches to graphic mode and then the screen is dark for
about 10 sec and then the background appears and the window manager comes up normally.

There is a similar efect also when switching back from console.
I experienced no problems after init. The server works nicely.

The XFree86.0.log is error-free, it has a warning about missing
/dev/apm_bios and MTRR's, which I suppose is not the problem (?)

This leaves with no clue what else to check, where to look.
Any suggestions ?

Thanks a lot,
Robert

Yes, the 4.4.0 release is based upon the 4.3.99.903 pre-release, so all security
fixes included in it will be in the new release.

Actually, according to

In the xfree86 4.3/4.4 radeon driver you can't mix DRI and dualhead. 
It may work without xinerama, depends what you are doing.

AFAIK, the radeonfb kernel driver does not support multiple heads yet.

>

It sounds like what you may want is my radeon driver with mergedfb
support.  It uses each crtc as a viewport into a single shared
framebuffer so the DRI works on both heads:

[XFree86] Security issues fixed in XFree86 4.4.0 ?

2004-03-02 Thread Lise Moorveld
Hello list :)

Just a quick question. On the XFree86 Security page 
http://www.xfree86.org/security there are three security issues that have 
apparently been fixed in release candidate 4.3.99.903. However, in the 
release notes of 4.4.0 http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/RELNOTES.html there is 
no mention of these issues.

I am assuming that these issues are fixed in 4.4.0 but I need to be sure. 
Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks in advance!

Mike,

Sorry you felt that you needed a response. Reading your emails it
sounded like you were on top of things and would post a patch when
you were ready for people to test.

That's certainly why I hadn't responded. Maybe others felt that way too.
