<0> how can i send an ICCCM atom?
<0> gnome has hidden the $#@#$@# out of how to do useful things, i think the only way i'm going to change the # of desktops iwith a wM hint
<0> _WIN_WORKSPACE_COUNT or _NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOPS
<0> but i dont know how to manually twiddle those commands
<1> myren: if those atoms aren't working for you, maybe there's a gconf key?
<0> i dont know how to exercise the atoms
<0> what can i use to send an atom
<1> gdk has nice friendly wrappers if xlib is giving you pain
<0> just make a program? where's xnb when i need it. ;)
<2> myren: wmctrl
<0> UnNamed: cool, i'll check it out, thanks
<0> from the description, it sounds great, thanks again.



<2> myren: what is xnb btw?
<2> .NET Binding?
<1> UnNamed: yeah, it's a c# port of xcb, not yet finished
<0> how'd you guess .net bindingds
<2> it was more a confirmation, as other option would be some kind of old x11 tool that has got lost with p*** of time
<3> i guess xcompmgr is no longer being maintained? i made a quick hack to it so that the offsets of server-side shadows are configurable
<0> not a java fan i see
<4> Is it possible to see the commit history of a particular file with the gitweb on fd.o?
<4> In particular, this file: http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/xserver.git;a=blob;h=f1617f6275457b3c378f363c419ef6cb09f7189a;hb=2fde560bbb9c1148f26fd969dc30c4e736672b7c;f=render/picturestr.h
<4> Can anyone point me to the commitdiff that completely changed xserver/render/picture.c by any chance?
<5> Cwiiis : I bet you're trying to compile Xgl, aren't you ?
<4> tipote: Hah, yes :)
<5> Cwiiis: well, the solution is to retrieve the Xgl branch
<4> tipote: oh, ok
<5> the Xgl code in master seems to lack some things like the changes in picturestr.h
<4> Wow, there's an hour or so I'll never get back... :)
<4> tipote: How do I clone the Xgl branch?
<5> replace 'master' by 'xgl'
<5> sorry add 'xgl' at the end of your git clone command
<4> tipote: Thanks :)
<5> you're welcome
<6> or from your existing checkout, just "git checkout xgl"
<6> or whatever the branch name is
<4> Seems the xgl branch fails on the same error though :/
<4> (xglcompose.c:134: error: union _SourcePict has no member named source)
<4> both the xgl and the xgl-0-0-1 branch don't seem to build... I give up :(
<5> hmm, I faced the same problem a couple of days ago, but I've already forgotten what I did ...
<1> Cwiiis: hasn't been updated against mesa yet, changes shouldn't be big
<7> hola
<4> alp: I'm using an older mesa anyway - If I try to build the xgl-0-0-1 branch, it fails with no rule to make target `strcasecmp.c', and if I build the xgl branch, it fails because render/picturestr.h has changed
<4> oh bugger me, I forgot to redo autogen...
<4> The xgl-0-0-1 branch builds fine :)
<4> so, how does one go about building a recent xserver-xgl? It seems the xgl branch doesn't build and fixing it isn't a simple job that someone with no Xorg knowledge can do :(
<4> or maybe it is...
<8> Cwiiis: if you mean the failure to link the Mesa source files, try git cherry-pick b29b236d88789fd45d823a55dbedb393bb134c5b
<4> MrCooper: I don't mean that, no
<4> MrCooper: render/picture.c api has changed - I've figured that, the only thing I'm not sure about is how to set a destroy function...
<8> Cwiiis: IIRC you need to configure with --disable-xorg
<4> MrCooper: That isn't the problem here
<8> Cwiiis: otherwise the xgl branch should be self-contained, make sure the checkout fully succeeded
<4> I can build a check-out from 20060725, but latest doesn't build
<4> xgl-0-0-1 builds, but it's too old :p
<8> what's the new xgl branch?
<8> it's not supposed to build on master
<4> I just checked out xserver and git checkout xgl and it doesn't build
<8> Cwiiis: have you tried #xgl?
<4> MrCooper: Wasn't aware there was one, I'll give it a go - thanks :)



<8> np
<8> Cwiiis: xgl doesn't seem to be a branch
<4> I hate git :(
<8> didn't the checkout complain?
<4> Nope :/
<4> And it seemed to list it there as a branch for me...
<4> when I did git branches, or whatever the command is that lists branches
<8> I get git-checkout-index: xgl is not in the cache
<8> and git fetch said error: no such remote ref refs/heads/xgl
<8> Cwiiis: grep xgl .git/remotes/origin
<8> maybe you accidentally created a local branch called xgl at some point?
<4> That must've happened I guess :/ Crazy thing is, I almost have it building now :p Kinda interested to see what happens...
<8> gitk --all might be useful
<8> git branch xgl would have done that, e.g.
<4> MrCooper: Is there any way to pull from a git branch based on a date? I know dates have nothing to do with git, etc.
<8> Cwiiis: what are you trying to achieve?
<4> MrCooper: I'm just trying to get a more recent check-out of xgl to build than the one in Ubuntu edgy, as there's a bug for xv surfaces in it
<8> Cwiiis: git checkout xgl-0-0-1
<4> MrCooper: I built that check-out, but the resultant server wouldn't start due to some problems loading keymaps or something...
<8> well, the only realistic hope to get it going is using that branch
<4> I might try building an earlier package and seeing if that works instead...
<4> MrCooper: Thanks for your help :) I'm clearly not competent enough to be using git :p
<8> np, and good luck
<8> FWIW, you can go back to any commit on the xgl-0-0-1 branch if you like
<4> ah, how would I do that? That might be useful if this doesn't work
<4> brb, will quickly try older xgl...
<4> no success...
<8> Cwiiis: git checkout -b <new branch> <commit-ish>
<4> MrCooper: thanks - Is it possible to use gitweb to view a particular branch as well?
<8> Cwiiis: probably, but I prefer gitk
<4> MrCooper: I'll give that a try
<8> it's even worth standing the awful Tk UI :)
<4> MrCooper: Sorry to bother, what was the line to check what branches there are again?
<8> Cwiiis: you mean checking in .git/remotes/origin? Note that doesn't necessarily contain all branches of the central repository
<4> MrCooper: Isn't there a git command to list them? I think I did it earlier, but I can't remember what it was...
<8> git branch?
<4> ah yes, thanks :)
<8> np
<4> There are so many commands, I keep forgetting :/
<8> git help
<7> hola
<9> hola
<7> hi dobey
<9> what's up?
<7> nothing special, a nice sunday here ;)
<9> heh
<9> not here
<0> hey hey
<0> portladn project had xdg-utils
<0> which can twiddle a bunch of options
<9> ok?
<0> i spent a while yesterday wondering how to send basic ICCCM atoms
<0> just following up on yesterdays questions with an answer
<9> oh
