Two new patches: #994 and #995

2003-12-18 Thread Kean Johnston
Hi, I created two bugs, #994, which updates the SCO port, which I would appreciate someone checking in, and #995, which updates pci.ids so that modern nVidia cards are recognized (card names taken from the driver). #995 sure isnt critical for 4.4 but it is simple and useful. Kean

4.4.0RC1 - system hangs and long startup times

2003-12-18 Thread Christian
After installing the release candidate I recognized that startup-times of especially gnome-applications was significantly longer. Furthermore the system often froze when using idesk. After changing back to 4.3.0 everything was fine again. I'm using xfree86 on an AMD Athlon 1000 (133x7.5) with a

Looking at ProcShmGetImage() there's a bunch of checking for out-of-bounds coordinates, but ProcShmPutImage() lacks this checking. Is this patch reasonable or too much (it does fix the problem) but I'm wondering if the bounds are too strict for PutImage ? Alan. Index: shm.c
