I get a similar glibc error with nxsty's glibc-2.3.90 overlay.

I've got it working without xkb, but kompmgr is buggy on it, I'd like to try glxcompmgr or the new one (can't remember the name) that's not out yet

Moving windows around without composite enabled seems a lot smoother than on the normal X server.

What else can I play with?

well first I was getting this when I ran the autogen.sh for xserver.

checking for XdmcpWrap in -lXdmcp... yes
checking for x11 xext... yes
checking XEPHYR_CFLAGS... -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -I/opt/fdo/include
checking XEPHYR_LIBS... -L/opt/fdo/lib -lXext -lX11 -ldl
checking for randrproto renderproto fixesproto damageproto xextproto xfont xproto xtrans xau compositeproto resourceproto recordproto xdmcp xdmcp... Package randrproto was not found in the pkg-configsearch path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `randrproto.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'randrproto' found

configure: error: Library requirements (randrproto renderproto fixesproto damageproto xextproto xfont xproto xtrans xau compositeproto resourceproto recordproto xdmcp xdmcp) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

I am following directions from:
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fXserver_2fInstallGuide

I took its advice at the top to do the symbolic links and that fixed the problem except it had a problem with not having xres, so i downloaded/installed that, now when trying to compile xserver I am getting:

any suggestions?

er I think my problem was trying to use the CVS ( I guess its broken?) I am using the cvs snapshot binary and that seems to be compiling further than before. I hope it compiles.

well I got it working but it seems to be pretty slow right now, firefox menus/stuff was loading very slowly, i ran quake 3 and the graphic's looked all weird and I got about 1/2 the performance I do in normal Xorg, got about 6000 in glxgears.

Ok so i suppose im running xgl, im not sure if i was supposed to uninstall xorg-server from portage first, but anyways.
is there any way to enable glx in xgl ? =/

I've been running Xgl and giving it a shot, but AFAIK, it just runs on top of xserver. I may be talking crap here, but I think this is very experimental and is not meant to replace xserver. In fact, it seems like it kindof runs as "another X application", if you want to see it that way...

I don't think it will be fairly usable for production like that in the near future...

Can you run it on xorg-x11-7.0? Or do I need kdrive?

huh? from the console I ran the xGL and it ran fine full screen, maybe it is still running on top of X? quake 3 ran at like 50% performance with really funky looking graphics, and the drawing on firefox and other graphics was quite slow

This thread has been reasonably active, I haven't read any of it though, so I dunno if it's interesting or not.

Apart from that, I haven't seen mention of it anywhere since last week.

I read the Xorg mailing list daily. I sort by date and read every post. Honestly there is a lot going on. The only problem is these are developers talking to other developers. So sometimes it's hard to understand what is actually going on. Regarding XGL there are two things happening, the first the extension of GLX to allow GL to write to root visuals. This will allow XGL to become a stand alone server. There is some debate on how to do this or whether to do this. Some other discussions on expanding the composite extension. The next is just general debugging of the current XGL, some informative posts on how to build and get it running. A few for gentoo systems including ebuilds.

Let's developers do their work. I will wait and see to try XGL.

About glxcompmgr from cvs... Anyone has it working? I get this error and have no idea what it wants from me.

--disable-gconf doesn't help any.

zehnan1 · Posted: Fri Jan 13, 2006 10:59 pm Post subject:

Managed to compile glxcompmgr. I used the Hanno's ebuild from the link below. Runs great on nvidia closed source drivers. Wobbly windows are funky.

Cube, zoom, rotation - don't know how to do those, if anyone knows, please share.

Hanno also has all the ebuilds concerning xgl (mesa, glitz, glxcompmgr). Though, Xgl didn't work for me (probably amd64), had to compile David's tarball.

I gave those ebuilds a go, and I managed to get the xgl ebuild working, but it won't compile, and I can't seem to compile it from the tarball anymore! Very annoying, as I just removed it before reading your post!

Yep, same here. All GTK stuff seems to work Qt stuff crashes here. I'm installing Gnome now (a KDE fan speaking).

Edit: Hmn. It isn't that easy. In XGL KDE is a lot less usable than Gnome, but In Gnome I can also crash the server on demand.

I'm very impressed however: A GPU accelerated desktop in Linux!! It seems that the only thing that needs much work is stability. With the right amount of people working on that, this could be fixed in the next months.
Running a nested server isn't a big nightmare for me!

I get the feeling I had to do that when I originally compiled it. I really should start making notes! Compiling now...

Woohoo... glxcompmgr now, tomorrow the world!!!

Urgh, spoke too soon....
