Bug#221998: /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm: wtmp entries not cleared upon exit
> who > > notice the entry for the old X process that doesn't exist anymore. I noticed the same thing today. The problem arises from the removal of Xsetup and Xreset from /etc/X11/xdm/. According to the changlog, these files were removed so that xconsole would not be run, but there was an unintended side effect. Although Xsetup served no other purpose than to run xconsole, Xreset served two purposes: to kill xconsole, and to remove the utmp/wtmp entries. xconsole was started in Xsetup and killed in Xreset. The utmp/wtmp entries were created by sessreg -a in Xstartup, and removed by sessreg -d in Xreset. Now there is a sessreg -a with no corresponding sessreg -d. Perhaps Xsetup and Xreset should be reinstated, and the xconsole parts commented out or bypassed with if/then statements. Even if this means that Xsetup will be a no-op, it might still be good to leave it as a place-holder for people poking around looking for opportunities to interpose their customizations. AMC
Bug#115882: xserver-xfree86: bug still there; workaround AlwaysRestartServer=true in gdm.conf
"Michael J. Creutz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Logging out of X still totally froze up the system about 1/3 of the > time. Putting > > AlwaysRestartServer=true > > into gdm.conf seems to evade the problem. I've been having a similar experience with my Number Nine Imagine 128 II rev 2. The problem is now evident with xserver-xfree86 4.2.1-12.1, but I've been living with it for a year. Today I poked at it a little more. The problem is when the server is reset using SIGHUP. I can switch VTs all I want (between the X VT and the non-X VTs) until the X server has been reset at least once. Then I can log in again to xdm and start a new X session, but any attempt to switch VTs causes the screen to go black (the monitor loses sync) and nothing works except the reset button (I haven't tried pinging from another machine because I don't have one handy). I use xdm rather than gdm, and the workaround is similar. In /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config: DisplayManager*resetSignal: 18 DisplayManager*terminateServer: true In other words, have xdm "reset" the server with a SIGCONT (which is ignored) instead of a SIGHUP, then terminate and resart the server.

Bug#226430: I have the same problem. Is 4.3.0-0pre1v4 available for the meanwhile?
Upgrading from 4.3.0-pre1v4 to 4.3.0-pre1v5 also killed X for me. Starting X fails with no clear error message. (Signal 11 after reloading libddc?) I'm also using the 2.6 kernel (2.6.2-rc3 currently, but I've tried several 2.6.x kernels) and the i810 video driver (I have a 855GM chipset). It would really help if 4.3.0-pre1v4 or some other working version could be made available somewhere until this is resolved. Thanks in advance. Dirk Gerrits
Bug#230696: RFE: Update Xfree86 encoding files to Xfree86 V4.4.0RC2 to include font encoding fixes and enhancements
Package: xfonts-base Version: 4.2.1-16 RFE: Please update the encoding files and mkfontscale in Debian to Xfree86 V4.4.0RC2. There are lots of fixes in the encoding files, mainly for the Arabic encodings (iso8859-6.8x and iso8859-6.16), Honkong locales and the new sun-indic unicode mapping. mkfontscale has been modified to search fonts for these new encodings, too. Can you update these files for the next Debian release (this is mainly for Mozilla to enhance Arabic, Chinese and Indic support), please (risk is low, the fixes have extensively been tested) ?

Bug#214449: xfonts-base: Seem to be linked to locale
Package: xfonts-base Version: 4.2.1-12.1 Severity: normal Followup-For: Bug #214449 I have managed to resolve this problem on my system. Here's a recount: I did an upgrade to testing yesterday and got this same problem: No bitmapped fonts available for emacs, xfontsel, xload, etc. All ttfonts are available, though, so terminals and mozilla, etc display properly. After many fruitless hours I suspected it was a locale issue (I've changed the locale of the system in the past). So I opened Control Center -> Region and Accessibility -> Country/Region & Language. There it shows Country: US Language: I changed Country to C/default and English came up in Language box. Since this change requires restarting KDE to take effect, I logged out and in again. Indeed the fonts are now available in Emacs. Afterwards I changed Country back to US/English and it still works. I cannot say that this is definitely the cause of the font problem: before trying this, I've tried installing, removing and reconfiguring several font-related packages, starting and stopping xfs and xfstt, etc, without logging out of KDE. So there is a chance one of these actions did the trick. There is a still a partial problem: the font in emacs appears to be quite large and ugly. It does not appear to be the same as what I had before.
