Hi,

I'm now using xorg 7.4 with the NVIDIA driver.

Here are the first problems I encountered:

- GDM is in QWERTY;
- I'd want to test an automatic configure, I can't run 'videoconfig' nor 'Xorg -configure': it makes my computer freeze.

Is there another way to generate a new xorg.conf?

I had to install everything again. I was booting straight in to Zen and tab was not working.
I use netpkg mirror netpkg upgrade, reboot. zenwalk 3, videoconfig, reboot and now everything is working fine. Sorry I can't help. No keyboard that was the problem.

viodeoconfig seems too old, now: the keyboard options don't work anymore. I have to run keyboardconfig each time X starts.
What can I do?

Hi,

First, thanks for testing these snapshot packages. Snapshot can be a bit dangerous at times but it is where the most fun happens.

The keyboard problem is a known problem but waiting for a solution for that to put Xorg-7.4 into testing makes every other part of Xorg-7.4 have to miss precious testing time.

I am working on the keyboard problem. Also on my systems videoconfig works well but please let us know about your system, video card, locale and so on...

:)

I'm using the NVIDIA driver (most of the time on kernel-rt). My keyboard is french. Because I'm sutying japanese, this is my system language (ja.JP.utf8), but the same problem occurs with the french language. With keyboardconfig, I choose azerty/fr-latin9.

BTW, I tested the nouveau driver: the fonts and windows are incredibly large!

Here's my xorg.conf:

Has anyone having trouble running "videoconfig" tried running the command "nvidia-xconfig"? Only works if the nvidia driver is installed.

Also forgot: videoconfig didn't work with "init 3", but it did with "init 4". nvidia-xconfig works on my desktop.

I found the reason why I can't compile denemo: libxcb-xlib.so is named libxcb-xlib.so.0. I don't know if it's the case since the upgrade, but I wanted to report this.

That's an easy one to fix:

( cd /usr/lib ; ln -s libxcb-xlib.so.0 libxcb-xlib.so )

I will have this fixed shorty.

The xcb versions >= 1.1.92 no longer build xcb-xlib so I had to manually make it to keep from rebuilding the entire repo. That solved making apps run. Now these little fixes will help apps build.

While installing xorg-fonts-base I get
Code:
xset: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol: xcb_xlib_lock

twice.
