Status report - X 4.1.0
Hey, I recently upgraded to 4.1.0-0pre1v1.3, and found that on startx, the X server would get a Signal 11, and terminate. This didn't happen with 4.0.[123], so I started debugging, and found by using the 4.0.3 version of /usr/X11R6/lib/libvgahw.o, that it still trapped a sig11, but it told me which filename it was loading while it got the sig11, due to unresolved symbols. Rolled back to the libvgahw.o to 4.1.0, and dropped /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/i740-drv.o to the 4.0.3 version, and everything works. Please CC me as I'm not subscribed. -- Steve "I'm a sysadmin because I couldn't beat a blind monkey in a coding contest." --Me pgp1qbdxrFb9y.pgp Description: PGP signature
recent gnome apps _slow_ and network access
running debian unstable w/ gnome gui recently (past few weeks) upgraded gnome apps started taking 5 to 10 seconds to crank up. Logging onto X via gnome takes close to a minute for my desktop to come up. The network gets beat on in the process (watching idiot lights on my cable modem). Switching over to Xfce and logging on takes only a second for a desktop to pop up and settle down. Within Xfce cranking up non-gnome app takes a second. Cranking up a gnome app takes 5 to 10 seconds. Anyone know what happened to gnome and whether this is permanent? On my end it's scary. For awhile I was wondering whether I'ld been hacked because it seemed like every app cranking up accessed the network and took forever to come up. Nice to know it's only gnome stuff that accesses the network (? why ?) and takes forever to come up. Heitzso
