Frozen Display
Hi, We've got a (large) Java Swing application that's demonstrating some very strange behavior. If the computer running it is left idle (no mouse or keyboard input) for a sufficiently long time (varies between an hour or so and a couple of days), the Swing display sometimes stops updating totally (we've got, among other things, a clock shown on-screen that stops updating) until the user moves the mouse. Once the mouse has been moved, our application seems to function normally. (Creating and removing a window from another application also causes the display to start updating again; keyboard input doesn't appear to be sufficient.). There are no errors in /var/log/messages etc. Following are the software environments: a..RHEL5.0 distro, but kernel was upgraded to 2.6.25.14 · JDK 1.6.0_07 · xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1-48.13.e15 · openmotif-2.3.0-0.5.el5 Any assitance you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thanks... Andy Ngo ___ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
randr: "reverse panning"
Sorry for not following the latest RandR developments, but let me ask. Does RandR support setting a monitor mode to NxM resolution (e.g. its native resolution) while setting its 'effective pixel resolution' (a term just invented by me) to PxR where P <= N and/or R <= M? In other words, can I have a monitor set to its native resolution while using only a portion of its pixels as if it had some other, smaller resolution. For one possible practical use please see this: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg/2009-November/047965.html Thanks! -- Andriy Gapon ___ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg

You can see in its history that for several years I was doing all the content editing there. The conversion from CVS to SVN removed the option to directly edit pages with Mozilla's Doctor online editor, which was what I used to do that work. Mozilla's been promising a replacement for Doctor for a long time. Until that happens, I won't be assisting with its needed updates. > and other places have not worked. If you're using a binary NVidia driver, you should be able to use 'Option "DPI" "118x118"' in xorg.conf. If not that driver, try 'Option "NoRandr"' in 'Section "Device"' in conjuction with the traditional DisplaySize option in xorg.conf (which you'll need to create if it doesn't exist). You might also need to disable EDID and/or DDC, depending on gfxchip/driver. Make sure also your your environment doesn't contain an Xft.dpi of anything other than the DPI you prefer. Note also that the report from xdpyinfo does not always equal the DPI that apps like Gecko are using. Use http://fm.no-ip.com/auth/dpi-screen-window.html to find out if Gecko is using the same DPI that xdpyinfo reports. Use http://fm.no-ip.com/share/DisplaySize to find the DisplaySize to use for commonly desired DPI values. Report back whether you achieve success, and if not, which exactly GMA gfxchip you have and which Xorg version 9.10 uses. I don't think openSUSE 11.2 forces DPI to 96, so you might want to give its live CD a try if 9.10 continues to resist obliging your efforts, and replace buntu with SUSE if it gives you the DPI you want. You might want to try other live CDs, e.g. Knoppix or a Lucid beta. -- "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

How to increase DPI on Compaq Mini 702EA (1024x600) Ubuntu 9.10
I'm running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 (latest) on Compaq Mini 702EA (1024x600). The text is very small in Firefox and the rest of the desktop due to the high DPI of the display panel (118dpi). Therefore I would like to increase the DPI setting, so that text,icons, web pages are rendered larger. I've been discussing on ubuntu forums, but no luck yet http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8859536#post8859536 all the changes I've tried, from http://www.mozilla.org/unix/dpi.html and other places have not worked. Any tips appreciated! Cheers, Jon ___ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg

[Q] Cylindrical Desktop
I have a stock Ubuntu 9.0.4 workstation that just got a second graphics card and LCD panel, both displays work as one large Gnome desktop. My problem is that I want the main part of the desktop in the center of my desk and the extended part on the left side -- so in the "Display Preferences" I had to interchange the position of the monitors[1][2]. Okay, that works well, except for one minor issue, when I move the root pointer to the left on the main screen it gets stuck at the left edge, but I want it to go to the second display. The best analogy that I can think of is that I want my desktop to act like it is on the surface of a cylinder I think this is a window manager problem, but I'm not 100% sure. I'm willing to hack Xorg to get the effect. Any ideas?
