Xorg on Sid question
Hi,
On Sid I changed my sources.list to this:
deb http://people.debian.org/~dnusinow/xorg ./
deb ftp://ftp.uni-mainz.de/pub/Linux/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib
Then I did the following:
/Fri Jul 08-05:47:36HDB1# apt-get update
/Fri Jul 08-05:57:38HDB1# apt-get remove x-window-system-core
/Fri Jul 08-05:58:01HDB1# apt-get remove xterm
/Fri Jul 08-05:58:22HDB1# apt-get remove xprt-xprintorg
/Fri Jul 08-05:59:19HDB1# apt-get install xserver-xorg
/Fri Jul 08-06:23:51HDB1# apt-get install x-window-system-core
/Fri Jul 08-06:24:54HDB1# apt-get install xterm
/Fri Jul 08-06:28:06HDB1# apt-get install xprt-xprintorg
Reasoning that those were the packages I installed when I installed Sid.
That all worked. Changed XF86Config-4 appropriately and restarted gdm.
I think the windows look cleaner, it *seems* and the shadows on the
Samsung 753dfx are not as big, it *seems*.
But then: XMMS won't start and mozilla dies after a while with messages
like this:
(Gecko:9213): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_window_set_transient_for: assertion
`parent == NULL || GTK_IS_WINDOW (parent)' failed
...
(Gecko:9332): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has
wrapped in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?)
The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
...
Anybody have similar experiences?
Any suggestions?
BTW I want to avoid dist-upgrading Sid because I am on a dialup :-(
