Hi,
I recently reinstalled my PC in order to have a fresh setup to test XCB (let us
say that my test config was definitly out standards)
And here are some of the thing I noticed :
1) There is another XCB existing. There XCB stands for X Cut Buffers. This might
be a problem to people with low technical skills who wil try to get there hands
on XCB through a package manager. Any idea ?
2) I think an INSTALL file in the xcb directory would definitly help. Most
people getting their hands on the source will try ./configure, make, make install.
An INSTALL file giving the good procedure could be usefull.
3) Just to be sure the good procedure is :
xmkmf -a
make
su root
make install
ldconfig
If not please tell me.
4) I have been trying to make hypnomoire and xcbtests run. All windows creations
return "Bad Window" and then here we go for a list of "Bad Drawable" events.
I can't seem to get it to work, so if someone knows what is happening, or has an
idea in what direction I should look I would be gratefull.
