All the Linux distros have some level of customization to the install of 
XFree86. If you want to compile/install a different version of XFree86 from 
the one that comes in binary form in your distro all you need is to follow 
the distro rules to obtain a proper installation.

As an example, I build XFree86 rpm packages for my RedHat 7.3 installation. I 
use the spec file from the rawhide packages that Mike Harris maintain as a 
start to my own custom spec file.

Or, if you don't want to make packages, simply look at the install stuff from 
the package source (pre/post install scripts, custom files, etc) and execute 
it by yourself.

This is plainly false - so I wonder if they didn't say something
slightly different...

If you use a distribution like RedHat, Mandrake, Debian, etc that
provides extensive package management facilities to the user, compiling
XFree86 yourself will probably invalidate your package data.

ie - if you install XF86 CVS on a Debian system, apt-get and dpkg don't
know about the newer version of X you have.  So they'll happily try to
download whatever package exists and install it.  This sucks, since
it'll probably overwite the custom CVS installation you did (assuming
you put it in the normal places).

If you're a somewhat seasoned Un*x-like guru (or you don't care about
screwing up your package manager) this isn't a problem.  If you're a
newbie, you should definately avoid this - it will cause headaches in
the future.

Not only is what you were told false, it is perniciously false.

I have built the stock 4.2.0 and 4.2.1 releases easily a dozen
times with a simple "make World ; make install" and had no 
problems. Currently, I update my CVS tree every night and
build and install it every few days. Again, it works just fine

Thank you.



I'm working with current CVS without any patch and I don't see any crash. 
Frequently the distribution maintainers include patches to fix some issues 
with hardware but generally they also send it to the XFree86 developers so 
they are integrated into the main tree.

I too have successfully installed X from CVS numerous times.


I think that the proper way to build XFree86, before do a 'make World', is at 
least read the documentation included in the distribution and look at the 
configuration options in xc/config/cf. Tell this to the folks at your local 
LUG.
You should probably check for a custom host.def in your 
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config directory.  I suppose there may
be a custom one there.  You could use that for the new build.

I usually move the installed XFree to a temporary location before
attempting a permanent install. i.e. cd /usr/; mv X11R6 X11R6.bak;
cd /path/to/build; make install;
If the install goes off without a hitch and the new X runs OK, I
them move the saved version back and do a make install over the
top. I've noticed that sometimes even though the make World goes
off without a hitch the make install will sometimes fail.

[Xpert]sunffb driver (creator3d etc) possible bug...

2002-12-14 Thread Razathorn
I have submitted bug reports to QT and kde on this one.. but after
testing... the bug only happens on the sunffb driver.  Here's the low
down:

In QT tree widgets (the default style, sgi and motif styles for instance
do not display the bug), the vertical lines which connect the tree items
appear WAY off.  IE: you expand a tree and the vertical line is drawn
say 3 inches to the left instead of directly under the +/- sign.  Using
the exact same binaries (qt and kde) on a fresh debian woody sparc linux
install on both machines, the problem only shows up on the sparc box
with the creator3d card / x server.  I have tried the latest 'testing
4.2' binaries from debian and it doesn't resolve the issue.  The machine
which works great is a 440mhz ultra10 clone with a raptor card (glint
driver).  The machine with the bug is an ultra60 2x300mhz box with a
creator3d.  

I am willing to make this machine available to those who would like to
help me narrow this down to get it resolved.  I am a software developer
myself, however I do not have the time to ramp up on the innards of X
server code, but would be glad to assist anyone who is 'in the know'
when it comes to what might be causing this.

Ouch. What's wrong with simply using the character that's printed on the
key? :)

Thanks for the pointer. The comments looks like this:

// This certainly shouldn't be 'comma'. Something like KP_DecimalComma
// would be better but there's no such definition in keysyms.
key   { type="FOUR_LEVEL_KEYPAD", [   KP_Delete,  comma,
KP_Delete,  KP_Decimal] };

So it seems the comment is only about that it should really be a decimal
comma and not just an ordinary comma. It seems the comment is not about
the purpose of the fix being wrong.

If anyone can give any pointers on how to correctly adapt this fix for
the se, fi, dk, nl, no, de_CH, and de layouts, that would be most
helpful. I'm not sure I understand the file format well enough.

The default GTK+ input method uses a big table of Keysym => Unicode 
translations, originally based on work by Markus Kuhn.
Probably that table needs a runtime exception for KP_Decimal

I doubt that this is the right approach. I think the goal of the
keyboard layout should be to match what characters are printed on the
keyboard. To have it send the wrong character, a character that isn't
printed on the key, based on some environment variable is just broken.
Also, the comma should be the same comma as on the regular keys. It may
not only be used for entering decimals, even if that's certainly the
most common usage.
If one desperately needs a Swedish layout with a point on the numeric
keyboard, then a seperate layout should be created for that purpose.

I get:
KeyPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x401,
root 0x46, subw 0x402, time 517414115, (51,51), root:(53,93),

state 0x10, keycode 91 (keysym 0xffae, KP_Decimal), same_screen YES,

The locale is sv_SE.UTF-8, and the same happens with just sv_SE.

I doubt this has anything with Unicode to do -- the behavior is the same
regardless of if UTF-8 is being used or not.

Exactly. Gnumeric/Gnucash/OpenOffice Calc and so on are pretty much
unusable with the numeric keypad, since they (correctly, since I use a
locale that uses comma as the decimal character) expect decimals entered
with commas.

I've previously filed a report, but I haven't been able to figure out a
patch for this problem myself. It involves overlaying the default
numeric keymap if I remember correctly, something I don't know how to
do.

I haven't seen any Swedish keyboards that don't use comma on the numeric
keypad. Note that I didn't include "France" in the list of standard
keyboard layouts above, because it does, as you point out, use a point
on the numeric keypad.

Here's the first thing to try.  You are running 4.1.x, which is rather
dated now.  I'd suggest getting a newer version (although check my

[Xpert]Please HELP: installing X on Toshiba Satellite 1905-S301

2002-12-14 Thread kynn
I'm having a lot of trouble getting X to run on my Toshiba Satellite
1905-S301 laptop.  I have searched many of the sites that supposedly
have info on installing Linux on Toshibas (for example
http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/, and
http://linux.toshiba-dme.co.jp/linux/index.htm), but I've found
absolutely no hardware or X installation information at all for 1905
models.  (Maybe they are too new?  If so, what older Toshiba models
are closest, as far as running X goes, to the 1905s?)

The error I get when I run startx is basically "No devices detected."
I include the full /var/log/XFree86.0.log and /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
files below.

I'd be more than happy to post any other information that may help
diagnosing the problem.

Thanks!

KJ
