 |

xorg-x11 6.9.0 with compose cache ebuild [OBSOLETE]
Here is an ebuild for 6.9.0 with the compose cache patches from suse and some additional fixes. It based in the 6.9.9 ebuild in portage but also has:
*Some additional bugfixes from Mandriva and SUSE SRPMS and the freedesktop bugzilla.
*Gcc 4.1 support.
*The Suse compose cache patches for faster applications startup time and less memory usage. The included mkcomposecache program doesn't work so there is currently no way to create the global cache files but the local cache files does work so just create the dir .compose-cache in your home to enable it. Check this bug for more info:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3104
To use it:
1. Download the overlay from http://snigel.no-ip.com/~nxsty/linux/xorg-x11-overlay.tar.bz2 or http://enderandrew.com/nxsty/xorg-x11-overlay.tar.bz2 or http://www.kriga.net/dl/glibc/xorg-x11-overlay.tar.bz2.
2. Untar it in /usr/local/portage/x11-base/
3. Edit make.conf and make sure you have PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"
4. Backup your old xorg-x11 with quickpkg
5. Unmask it by adding =x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9* -* to your /etc/portage/package.keywords and x11-base/xorg-x11 to /etc/portage/package.unmask.
7. emerge xorg-x11
8. Create the dir .compose-cache in your home.
If you want to go back to the stable just unmerge it, remove the entry from package.keywords and re-emerge the stable xorg-x11.
This is of course unsupported but if you have any problems post them here and I'll take a look at it. And rember to report any problems to the freedesktop bugzilla:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/
Problems?
Evdev support has been merged upstream so if you where using evdev with 6.8.2 you need to change your configuration:
http://floam.sh.nu/index.xhtml?page=guides§ion=mx1000
The mouse button configuration has changed so if your'e currently using xmodmap to set your mouse up you might not need to anymore:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4915
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1900
If GTK configure fails with "configure: error: Xft Pango backend is required for x11 target" try re-emerging pango.
If you can't connect to snigel.no-ip.com try one of the mirrors instead:

Lots of bugfixes for example 
The version in portage is a (i think) a pre _pre version of xorg 6.9 and this one follows upstream with their rc releases.
Like nxsty said gentoo is moving to the modular version and therefore the monolithic version is not updated anymore.

Hmmmm...xorg-x11 stable right now is taking up 400+ megabytes of ram; 600+ a few seconds ago. I guess this is the time for me to grab this cvs version.
emerging it at the moment. When I return from taking a bath, it should be done . I will report back here if everything goes well, or not. |

Wow, I just re-entered into the newest xorg-x11 .
I do not know about you all, but it works a great deal more smoothly than 6.8.2. I can't wait to play around with the new features ; but for now I have to go to sleep. |

What's the exact error message? And can you include your xorg.conf? I assume you have evdev support in your kernel. |

And here is my xorg.conf. It is the same working xorg.conf that I used with 6.8.2-r6. Like I said, it works with that version using evdev, so yes I have support in the kernel. Here's the config:

I think that's the problem. Remove the protocol line and change driver to "evdev". |

I think it's caused by this struct in the above file (it's in xc/programs/Xserver...):
| Code: | typedef struct {
Bool InUse;
/* The following fields are undefined unless InUse is TRUE. */
int refcount;
Bool canshare;
unsigned int wlut_regval;
int buffer; /* 0 = Buffer A, 1 = Buffer B */
int depth; /* 8 or 32 bpp */
int greyscale; /* 1 = greyscale, 0 = color */
int linear; /* 1 = linear, 0 = non-linear */
int direct; /* 1 = 24bpp directcolor */
int channel; /* 0 = X, 1 = R, 2 = G, 3 = B */
int palette; /* Only PAC2 has multiple CLUTs */
} ffb_wid_info_t;
|
Should this be:
| Code: | | typedef ffb_wid_info_t struct { |
Or shouldn't this matter?

Ok, so I changed those lines to Driver "evdev" like you said and this time it booted a little further. I get to the nvidia bootscreen (which most people dislike yet I had never seen before) and then it just hard locks on me. I can't switch terminals, kill x, nothing. I have to hit the reset button to get it to reboot and then it's all right back to the same. I'm in knoppix at the moment and here is what the latest xorg log shows:
| Code: | (II) Initializing extension GLX
(**) Option "CorePointer"
(**) Mouse1: Core Pointer
(**) Mouse1: Device: "/dev/input/event2"
(EE) Unable to open evdev device "/dev/input/event2".
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "Mouse1"
(II) UnloadModule: "evdev"

(EE) Unable to open evdev device "/dev/input/event2".
You could maybe make a udev rule for your mouse, it'll be easier than check dev/input.
And you dont need anymore the Dev * Options for evdev. |

You possibly have a guide for this? Or could you please explain how? I'd appreciate it! |

Use /dev/input/mice, it represents ALL mouse devices on the system.

That gives me this:

(**) Mouse1: Core Pointer
(**) Mouse1: Device: "/dev/input/mice"
(EE) ioctl EVIOCGBIT failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
