<0> is NX needed with 7.1?
<1> in the sense that it was ever needed, sure
<0> ok
<2> heh
<0> so then when a dep check says to remove NX due to 7.1 thats ok?
<3> xevie also kills my Xnest
<4> Maybe this question doesn't belong here, but please just answer yes or no: have you had any reports about openGL games breaking after upgrading to X.org 7 using the nvidia proprietary driver? Everything looks very strange now. Polygons are like repeated: http://twat.com.ar/screenshots/et/2006-06-03-143920-caen.jpg
<1> you are correct twice.
<1> yes, it's known to not work with 7.1, and yes it's offtopic here.
<4> ajax: Thanks, that's all I needed to hear.
<4> But works ok with 7.0?
<5> is there a known issue with flash/firefox crashing when composite is enabled?
<6> Hello, what is the easiest way to connect from one pc (that bootet ubuntu live or knoppix before and can access its pcmcia nic) to another and start e remote kde session on its local X?
<2> s/when composite is enabled//
<2> heh
<1> nakee: yes. first reported against kdrive approximately four years ago.



<6> My problem is: I usually boot via PXE, load a kernel and then connect via ldm to a remote LTSP server. But the PXE floppy can't access the pcmcia nic ...
<7> does the nv driver support DRI?
<7> I got from "glxinfo" , direct rendering: No
<8> dli: it does no 3d acceleration.
<7> Ori_B, yes, but I'm talking about 2D, dri
<7> direct rendering: No
<8> well, grep your logs for it
<8> (glxinfo is only for GL, of course)
<7> Ori_B, what should I check for in log?
<8> direct
<8> grep -i for that
<7> Indirect CPU to Screen color expansion
<8> mm, so it doesn't look like it supports it
<7> Ori_B, too bad :(
<8> dli: right now the nv driver sorta ****s
<8> there's a project working on inproving it, but it's in the beginning stages right now =/
<7> Ori_B, I see, I suppose when the project gets a working driver, I would have left nvidia by that time :( looks like intel video is the only
<9> how can you coerce an x server to start without a mouse? isn't there some "pointernotcore" option?
<8> man xorg.conf
<1> orpheus: also, void driver
<10> hey guys. im trying to understand X a bit better. im trying to start a second instance on an X server in display 2, with an xterm. how would i do that?
<11> X :1& DISPLAY=:1 xterm
<10> Insount: the joint command opens a 2nd xserver, but no xterm. then i try to do DISAPLY=:1 rxvt and get `can't open display :1 aborting`, even though i can go to that display with CTRL-ALT-F8
<10> Insount: btw, im also seeing the following in the logs: `Xlib: connection to ":1.0" refused by server` followed by `Xlib: No protocol specified`
<11> X :1& sleep 5; DISPLAY=:1 xterm
<11> Ah yes, there's the xauth voodoo. I think "startx -- :1" should do the trick.
<10> `startx -- :1` gives : `xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "maria:1" in "list" command` (maria, is the hostname of the machine)
<10> s/,//
<11> No idea...
<10> Insount: got it to work. i had to do it `sudo`, which is weird, since i can start display 0 as a normal user
<10> how do i switch window manager?
<11> Just kill the current one and run the one you want (from an xterm in :1, or after setting DISPLAY and XAUTHORITY ).
<10> im just trying to understand X a bit better. what's the point of running multiple displays?
<10> what are the most common reasons people do it?
<11> Multiple cards and remote displays.
<8> axolx: 1) to run stuff as a separate user, similar to WinXP's fast desktop switching
<8> 2) Xnest -- running stuff in a nested server (useful for testing stuff)
<8> 3) what Insount said
<10> Insmount Ori_B: thanks.
<10> whats a good doc to learn about remote displays?
<11> Nowadays remote displays are most often used via "ssh -X user@remotehost", which does all the magic for you.
<10> Insount: so where can i read about how to setup that?
<11> "ssh -X", or remote displays in general?
<10> i guess how to set up remote displays over ssh. i want to read a bit about what's the purpose and see if it may fit my needs and maybe play a bit and try to set it up
<11> You just set up an ssh server with appropriate permissions on box foo, and "ssh -X user@foo" from the remote box. Standard ssh setup, google that or rtfm.

<10> k. thanks for the help
<12> Hello anyone. In Dapper Drake, I can't seem to make my Graphire 4 tablet work properly. When I move the stylus just a centimeter above the writing field, it registers it as a button press. Trouble is, it's suppose to register as a button press when the stylus touches the pad. Any ideas?
<13> heya everyone
<13> is there xorg documentation on micrsoft trackball optical
<13> getting the buttons to work
<13> how can i start another x server in a different virtual terminal
<14> with Xnest ?
<13> i dunno
<13> i've dun it before with startx
<13> on different display
<8> flaccid: with startx, "startx -- :n", n!= running server
<8> note the space between "--" and ":n"
<13> ah yes
<13> so startx -- :1
<8> mhm



<13> thanks
<13> if anyone can help with my extra mouse buttons/xev i'd appreciate it
<15> did you check the docs?
<13> which docs are these?
<15> ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/X11R7.0/doc/html/index.html
<13> ah ok
<13> i'm reading
<13> does ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/X11R7.0/doc/html/mouse7.html#39
<13> with xmodmap - is it meant to show the summary table like in the docs?
<8> no, it has no output.
<13> ok
<13> the browser back button still goes to URL in clipboard
<13> hmm still no cigar
<13> why would the back/forward buttons have the same button number as the main buttons
<13> it doesn't make sense
<13> how can i verify the version of xorg i' musing?
<16> install Microsoft Windows
<13> ****head
<16> or check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
<13> thats a more reasonable answer ty
<16> at least i have a ****
<13> so do i
<16> we are here two persons who agree that i have a **** but only one that agrees taht you have one
<13> ok
<13> fair enough
<13> hmmm i step closer
<13> all working except right click button
<13> does logging out and logging back in restart the x server?
<16> not entirely
<13> true
<16> resatart gdm kdm or whatever you are using
<16> restart
<13> should i just kill it
<13> i use KDM
<13> or is there a proper way to restart KDM?
<16> restart it means restart it
<16> of course you could kill it
<16> but thats not restarting
<13> do you know how to restart kdm?
<17> hmm, what happened
<16> not really importatnt for kdm but for oracle its quite different
<17> sorry, I was back in the backlogs -_-
<16> /etc/init.d/kdm restart? at least on debian
<16> ubuntu should be the same
<13> ok thanks
<18> hi, i have a new mouse and its hell to fast, so i would like to set down the mouse speed, but i dont know how
<18> i already did xset m 0 0
<19> aep: bad idea that 'xset'... change the DPI in '/etc/X11/xorg.conf
<18> dpi, ok gonne rtfm, thanks
<18> Option "Resolution" "500" ?
<18> this one?
<18> it will only work for serial mouse, iirc
<19> aep: baudrate will only work for serial, dpi should work for any mouse.
<18> so how is the option called?
<18> resulution?
<13> rightio i finished configuring the mouse
<13> for some reason buttons 4,5 and 6,7 conflicted
<13> in some way
<13> thanks for help to all
<16> what do you have on button 7 (as example)
<13> forward
<16> browser navigation, i understand
<16> i thought some special application
<13> thats the only thing that was wrong
<13> looks like with a lot of the m$ mice, you have to do this
<20> Hi I'm having a small problem I think in xrandr
<20> it wants to put me at 4096 worth of horizontal space I only have 2048 total pixels
<20> is there a way to get it to give me an option for 2048 or did I screw up and set something wrong to make it offer me 4096x768
<20> (there's only two monitors on the system)
<18> still no idea howto change mouse speed :(
<18> i know now that the mouse i have is a "logitech click! cordless"
<18> i set "xset 0 0" thats ok do far, but i realy need a mouse speed change
<19> aep: have you tried 'SampleRate' too?
<18> not even dpi, becouse i dont know the options
