I'm sure it *matters* in other places, but it's only really been  
reported with startx so far, so I think that might be the only place  
it's really an issue (there might be something in xinitrc.cpp that  
needs to be changed... I didn't actually look there yet).

As far as doing different cpp files or adding in extra #ifdef  
__APPLE__ stuff goes... Our goal is to have as little Apple-specific  
cruft as possible.  For a while (and is true with the currently  
shipping "official" OSX version), xinit isn't even included.  Most of  
xinit's functionality was handled by some bits that were in xserver/hw/ 
darwin/bundle.  I've cleaned up the start routine substantially this  
past month, and now we use xinit just like the rest of the world  
without any weird hackery.

There are #ifdef __APPLE__ blocks in startx.cpp right now for things  
like user preferences that don't make sense on other systems.  Spaces  
in pathnames is an issue that could exist on systems other than OSX,  
so I was hoping to find a clean, portable solution that would work for  
everybody, but I'm quickly seeing that any such solution would be a  
bit of a pain for me to wrestle.

I really don't like using eval, but I think that's the only solution  
that I understand at the moment, so I'm probably going to use that  
(inside some #ifdef __APPLE__ blocks so as to not force my kludge on  
the rest of the world).  Hopefully someone who understands this a  
little better than I do (Roland? I'll buy you a beer! =>) can put  
together a patch that is a bit more palatable.

There is no xserver 1.4.99.903.  I tagged it, then noticed it didn't
distcheck.  Whoops.

This drops the glcore build infrastructure.  Build it from Mesa 7.1RC1.
Note though that you _will_ need 7.1RC1's dri_interface.h installed
before the GL support will build.  This doesn't materially change the
build order, since libs still go before server, but does eliminate the
source cross-linking at server build time.

What do you mean exactly with "glcore build infrastructure"?

You no longer need mesa source available while building xorg-server. 
You'll end up with mesa building /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so instead of 
xorg-server building libGLcore.so.

If this is only for the Mac you could write a python version that will 
be robust with the
spaces issue. Python is always part of the Mac system so you can rely on 
it working.

Hi,

According to my Xserver log, AIGLX is enabled  and glxinfo is reporting that
direct rendering is enabled
and it is able to find all the server side glx extensions
(GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap etc.)

When i run "compiz --replace", I get the error saying

"GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is not supported by rendering context, trying
indirect rendering context instead"
inotify_add_watch: No such file or directory
failed to create drawable.
...

It is extremely slow after this.  Any clues on what is going on ?
I am running on ubuntu fiesty with Xserver 1.5.99.1 on ATI RADEON X1650 PRO.

thanks

Hi,

I tried but with no difference. First the screen goes "white" and i need to
"ctrl-C" to get back.

P.S: The odd thing is that my "ctrl-Alt-F?" does not work anymore and makes
it even more harder
to debug

Then maybe it's time to stop caring about portability to useless shells.

More broadly, it's probably time to deprecate startx and xinit, strongly
recommend the use of a display manager like gdm, and write a minimal
replacement in some sensible subset of bash/ksh.

See if the fix in this git commit helps:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xrx/commit/?id=39f1f3f75b72f43637afeb963c8c83f080dd2635

Sorry about the mistake - I tested on Solaris & Fedora 9, but those have
either mozilla-plugin.pc or firefox-plugin.pc so the fallback didn't get
fully tested.

If you get a white screen when starting up compiz, your drivers are
almost certainly not setup correct.  Are you using fglrx or the open
source drivers?  If it's fglrx, you should ask on the appropriate forum
for help from AMD: http://www.phoronix.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=19

If it's the open source drivers, please attach or pastebin
your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file and the output of
'LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 glxinfo'.

It strikes me at this point that we never did formally deprecate xrx,
though we certainly intended to.

You can do it in portable shell, just don't pretend that it's everything
to everyone.  Doing so will lead you to the creatively insane hell where
your X startup script is too complex to be written portably.
