[Xpert] Make World fails building pswrap with BuildServersOnly
I am trying to build a 4.2.1 release of XFree86 (XDirectFB actually) and getting an error when I try to configure it to build the Xserver only. I have BuildServersOnly defined, but when I try to make World, I get a failure trying to build pswrap: $ make World ... cd ./config/pswrap make pswrap DEFINES= make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/RPM/BUILD/XFree86-4.2.1/xc/config/pswrap' make[1]: *** No rule to make target `pswrap'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/RPM/BUILD/XFree86-4.2.1/xc/config/pswrap' make: *** [World] Error 2 make: Leaving directory `/usr/src/RPM/BUILD/XFree86-4.2.1/xc' The problem seems to be that the Makefile in xc has the following for the World target: World: ... cd $(IMAKESRC) $(MAKE) $(FLAGS) clean $(MAKE) $(MFLAGS) Makefile.boot $(MAKE_CMD) $(MFLAGS) VerifyOS $(MAKE_CMD) $(MFLAGS) version.def $(MAKE_CMD) $(MFLAGS) Makefiles $(MAKE_CMD) $(MFLAGS) BOOTSTRAPSUBDIRS= clean cd $(CONFIGSRC)/pswrap $(MAKE) pswrap DEFINES= $(MAKE_CMD) $(MFLAGS) includes $(MAKE) -C $(CONFIGSRC)/util gccmakedep $(MAKE_CMD) $(MFLAGS) depend $(MAKE_CMD) $(MFLAGS) $(WORLDOPTS) World @echo @date @echo @echo Full build of $(RELEASE) of the X Window System complete. @echo Notice that make World directly specifies that pswrap be built (cd $(CONFIGSRC)/pswrap $(MAKE) pswrap DEFINES=). However, the Imakefile in config (the parent directory to pswrap) has the following in it: #if BuildDPSLibrary PSWRAPDIR = pswrap #endif SUBDIRS = cf $(BOOTSTRAPSUBDIRS) util $(PSWRAPDIR) which causes pswrap to be ignored (because it is only in SUBDIRS conditional on BuildDPSLibrary) when making Makefiles, etc. if BuildDPSLibrary is false. BuildDPSLibrary is false because in xc/config/cf/X11.tmpl there is the following: #define BuildDPSLibraries !BuildServersOnly So it seems that pswrap is mutually exclusive of building a server only, but the toplevel make World target wants to build it, unconditionally. So I pressume I must be doing something wrong. I am sure I am not the first person to want to build a BuildServersOnly configuruation. Is make World the wrong target to call to simply build (a) server(s)? b. -- Brian J. Murrell msg11925/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

[Xpert]Modifying the mouse code?
Background: I have a Linux box (and a Windoze box) attached to a KVM switch. When I switch away from the Linux box and come back, the mouse (an MS Intellimouse, IMPS2) goes haywire. Switching from the graphical X mode to a console mode (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and back fixes the problem. It looks like the mouse appears to have gone out of sync or something. The problem: I'd like to fix this problem, but I can't for the life of me figure out where exactly is the mouse being read and mouse events generated? I've tried to modify the following files programs/Xserver/hw/kdrive/linux/mouse.c programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/input/mouse/mouse.c to print debugging information, and nothing gets printed. Note: I'm using sources from RedHat's src RPM (I could use the original XFree86 sources, but then some of the symbols don't get resolved in the DSOs). Obviously I'm doing something wrong here. So.. can someone point out where I can muck around with the mouse code? Thanks, Ajay ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert

[Xpert]smooth mouse with PS/2 but erratic with IMPS/2 -- why?
Hello, I have searched and scoured lists and webpages for hours now after doing some searching to discover why all of a sudden (after a motherboard swap out) my mouse pointer jumps around erratically. I have not changed any configuration of any sort, just the motherboard (which of course my ps/2 mouse is plugged into). If I use the PS/2 protcol, the mouse cursor moves nice and smooth on the screen. If I want to use IMPS/2 (for the scroll wheel) it jumps around erratically. Why is this? What is the difference? Why should the changing of my motherboard have this effect? Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanx, b. -- Brian J. Murrell msg09372/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: [Xpert]TV Out - Recommendations?

Well, this is a contentious subject. The reason being is that most (all?) of the producers of TV-Out capable hardware are not providing (all of) the programming specs on how to do TV-Out with their cards. My conspiricy theory on this is that the producers of such hardware want also want to be able to write DVD-playing software, as a sell for their hardware. In order to (manufacture and) sell these things in the US, these producers are being hog-tied by the Copyright Consortium (spearheaded by such organizations as the MPAA, RIAA, etc.) into licensing the DVD-decrypto-magic. I suspect that such a license carries a clause that the hardware producer will not do anything to allow the easy copying of content and providing programming specs for these TV-Out capable cards does just that. I have tried TV out using a low end Geforce 4 with the nvidia binary drivers but there are some strange effects when watching movies through the TV Out (in scenes where there is a lot of action there is a split in the middle of the screen running horizontally, the upper half of the screen updates just before the bottom half and its very annoying!) [ note the use of the word frame here is loose and not meant to differentiate between frames and fields ] It's called tearing. The reason is that the software/hardware is not waiting until the vsync to update what is being displayed on the television. If the software/hardware waits until a frame is fully displayed to the TV before changing it you do not see this effect. If it changes the frame while it is half-drawn to the TV, you end up getting part of one frame and part of the following frame. For the record, I am using a Matrox G400. They are hard to come by these days as they are no longer in production, and to the best of my knowlege, Matrox are not producing drivers, nor publishing specs for any of their newer cards. They are also a bit expensive to just display a video signal on a TV. b. -- Brian J. Murrell msg08972/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

But before anyone blames the KVM, I have plugged the mouses I have tried directly into the PS/2 port. Both the Logitech and the IBM mouse I now use would go either way, but by going with USB, I was able to rid the mouse of that large ps/2 adapter. Yup, me too.

[Xpert]Appearance in X...
Can anyone shed any light on why KDE looks so bad compared to Windows? The KDE fonts are really rough and difficult to read, particularly when they are small. I don't know that it is just just the lack of True Type fonts (although this is probably a contributing factor) as I have installed a whole bunch of Windows TTFs and it has made little difference. I have tried using True Type fonts and have checked the Anti-Aliasing for Fonts box in the KDE Control Centre, but they are still quite fuzzy compared to those in Windows. I am trying to get Red Hat 7.3 installed at my work to replace our network of aging Win95 PCs, but I just _know_ that as soon as the staff see the terrible fonts that they will reject it out of hand. I am evaluating Galeon, OpenOffice 1.0 and Evolution as that is all most of our office will need, but the appearance compared to IE, MS Office and Outlook is terrible.
