Thanks for the link to the thread.  So, I guess the patch submitted by
the thread starter was rejected?

Your message refers to using kernel headers when building glibc.  Why
would that be the issue for me since I haven't touched glibc since I
first installed it, which was after it first came out?  Is the idea
being when I upgraded to glibc-2.3, it used kernel headers *back then*
so each subsequent upgrade continued to do so?

Peace...

I haven't noticed problems with mozilla or firefox, but it may depend
on which fonts you have.  Do you know which font it might be?  Can you
attach to the browser with gdb when this happens and find what code it
is looping in?

The only thing I've seen cause slowness is if the fontconfig cache files
are not up to date (run 'fc-cache -v -f' as root to update them).

Re: [XFree86] double buffer

2006-03-21 Thread Mark Vojkovich
   You can render to a pixmap and then copy the contents of the
pixmap to the window with XCopyArea().  This will be similar to
many implementations of glXSwapBuffers, however, many GL implementation
allow synchronization with the refresh rate, while Xlib offers no
such feature.  Note that glXSwapBuffers executes an implicit
glFlush, while XCopyArea does not execute an implicit XFlush.

Mark.

[XFree86] double buffer

2006-03-21 Thread Florent Monnier
Hi,

I've started to learn the Xlib, and when there are a lot of things to draw on 
the screen, the display is not regular.
With openGL this effect is corrected by using double buffering.
So I'm wondering how to use double buffering with the Xlib?

I've got an answer on an other list which was to draw on another drawable, and 
then to switch the 2 drawables with XCopyArea(), but all I get is a blanck 
screen with this.

[XFree86] Cannot connect to display as root user

2006-03-21 Thread xfree
Hi all.

I'm running SuSE Linux 9.2 pro.

I run X with startx as a normal user.

If I try to su to root and run an application in a root 
console under KDE, I cannot connect to the display.

But if I shutdown X, and start it from the console as root 
user with startx, I can then connect to the display.

Can anyone help me please?

I need to connect as root to the display, after starting X 
as a non-root user.

Is there some config file I need to alter to allow 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to connect to the display?

Regards

Keith Roberts
