Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xdmx
I've been working on getting Xdmx running across 2 Ubuntu machines which seems impossible. It seems to startup but eventually dies and dmesg shows that dan...@gambit:~$ startx /usr/bin/twm -- /usr/bin/Xdmx :1 -display 10.0.2.60:0 -display 10.0.2.61:0 -ignorebadfontpaths +xinerama -noglxproxy (II) dmx: Generation: 1 (II) dmx: DMX version: 1.2.20070424 (DMX Project) (II) dmx: DMX Build OS: Linux 2.6.24-19-server i686 (Ubuntu) (II) dmx: DMX Build Compiler: gcc 4.3.2 (II) dmx: DMX Execution OS: Linux 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:24:39 UTC 2009 (II) dmx: DMX Execution Host: gambit (II) dmx: MAXSCREENS: 16 (II) dmx: Using configuration from command line (II) dmx: Added 10.0.2.60:0 at 0 0 (II) dmx: Added 10.0.2.61:0 right of 10.0.2.60:0 (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: No Xdmx server running on backend (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Name of display: 10.0.2.60:0.0 (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Version number: 11.0 (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Vendor string: The X.Org Foundation (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Vendor release: 10502000 (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Dimensions: 2560x1024 pixels (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: 7 depths on screen 0: 24,1,4,8,15,16,32 (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Depth of root window: 24 planes (24) (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Number of colormaps: 1 min, 1 max (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Options: backing-store no, save-unders no (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Window Manager running: yes (**) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: Window manager running -- colormaps not supported (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: 2560x1024+0+0 on 2560x1024 at depth=24, bpp=32 (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: No Xdmx server running on backend (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Name of display: 10.0.2.61:0.0 (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Version number: 11.0 (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Vendor string: The X.Org Foundation (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Vendor release: 10502000 (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Dimensions: 1280x1024 pixels (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: 7 depths on screen 0: 16,1,4,8,15,24,32 (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Depth of root window: 16 planes (16) (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Number of colormaps: 1 min, 1 max (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Options: backing-store no, save-unders no (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Window Manager running: yes (**) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: Window manager running -- colormaps not supported (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: 1280x1024+0+0 on 1280x1024 at depth=16, bpp=16 (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: 0x21 TrueColor 16b 6b/rgb 64 0xf800 0x07e0 0x001f * (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: 0x22 DirectColor 16b 6b/rgb 64 0xf800 0x07e0 0x001f (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: 0x6a TrueColor 32b 8b/rgb 256 0xff0000 0xff00 0x00ff (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: DPMS 1.1 (on, enabled, 0 0 0) (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: DPMS 1.1 (on, enabled, 0 0 0) (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: (request) s=2560x1024+0+0 r=2560x1024+0+0 @0,0 (0) (be=2560x1024 depth=24 bpp=32) (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: (request) s=1280x1024+0+0 r=1280x1024+0+0 @0,0 (1) (be=1280x1024 depth=16 bpp=16) (II) dmx[o0/10.0.2.60:0]: s=2560x1024+0+0 r=2560x1024+0+0 @0,0 (be=2560x1024 depth=24 bpp=32) (II) dmx[o1/10.0.2.61:0]: s=1280x1024+0+0 r=1280x1024+0+0 @2560,0 (be=1280x1024 depth=16 bpp=16) (II) dmx: Using 3840x1024 as global bounding box (II) dmx: XSync batching with 100 ms interval (II) dmx: Shadow framebuffer support disabled giving up. xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.

Would be nice to be able to use Xdmx again. ** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Xdmx segfault https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/334264 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
