I was able to successfully compile the X11R5 distribution on
our RS/6000, but I seem to having some problems with the Xmu library.
Some of the client programs which use this library compile and link
just fine, but when I run them they give me a whole bunch of Undefined
Symols Xt......  in libXmu.a
And then at the bottom it says
Exec Format error: libXmu.a[shr.o]
So I managed to trace the common denominator behind all these undefined
symbols, and it appears that they are all located in the include
file Intrinsic.h.   When I took a look at Intrinsic.h I noticed that
all of those symbols had #ifdef NeedFunctionPrototypes right
after the opening { of each symbol and an #endif right before
each closing } .  So is there some special linking or compiling flag
that I should use for building the libXmu library or for building
these clients, or should I change this Intrinsic.h file?
Any help would be appreciated.

HELP,

	When I spawn multiple processes with a 
Working Motif Dialog Box (one per process) I 
sometimes get "orphan windows". This meaning
that only a partial drawing of the dialog box
gets displayed onto the screen (usually just 
the top left corner of the dialog box and
just the first letter of the name of the dialog
box).

	My question is, how to stop processing
long enough (controlling my own events during
exposure) to ensure that all of the dialog box
can be displayed before being swapped out by
other processing?

		Thanks in advance,

Hi,

  I need to manupilate text fast on a window, in a manner similiar to xterm.
my implementation is in XLib (and I'd like to carry on using XLib). Any pointersas to how that may be achieved will be greatly appreciated.

  At the moment I use the XDrawString and XClearArea routines to write and 
delete text. But they are SLOW.

  Any ideas?

I want to use the IconRegion setup variable using tvtwm
and it works ok except i want it to use that region
in EACH virtual window (i'm using VirtualDesktop "2x2")

not on the first quadrant only

e.g. what happens is if i'm in virtual screen 2,3 or 4 and
iconify a window the icon goes to v.s. 1  - so if i want to
get it back i have to go to vs1 and deiconify

here is my IconRegion "96x512+0+0" North East 10 10

is there some magic geometry setting i could use that would
say i want it (the +0+0) relative to the virtual screen i'm in?

or some other method?

the whole reason i have to use IconRegion is because the icon is
left where the window is by default (unless the app tells it
otherwise) but for xterm/hpterm windows that's always right
where they are  -  IconManager i didn't like (although it is
quite cool)


p.s. the 10 10 on IconRegion (gridwidth, gridheight respectively
i could not figure out what they did but setting them to 10
and 10 worked)

		thanx,

We are having problems getting XFree86 working with the font server

gives the following output (wich appears to be ok):

  Number of alternate servers: 0

The command fslsfonts lists all the expected fonts as well.

The servers Xconfig file contains:

Removing the font server item in Xconfig makes the X386 start properly !

When you close the display, destroy all the widgets associated with
that display connection.  (XtDestroyWidget on the top level shell will
do the trick.)  The widgets have corresponding windows on the X
server, and closing the display connection destroys the windows (there
is a way around this, by changing the connection's close-down mode,
but it won't help you much).

Use X11R5 Xt Intrinsics.  (Earlier versions are known to be buggy in
this respect.)

>Temporary solution:

      XtDestroyWidget() on the toplevel widget.
      Now, the program runs perfectly, I think.  
      Will there be any future problem
>     by not closing those displays with XtCloseDisplay()?

I'm a little confused by your question.  I take it you want
to cease displaying anything on one or more of your program's
multiple displays.  Destroying the widgets does indeed remove
all the visible evidence of the display connection.  However,
if your program has no further use for a particular X server,
you should ALSO close the display connection (to free up the
port on the server).

Hi,

Capturing or playing sound has nothing to do with X. If your workstation
manufacturer supports sound playing and recording equipment, chances are
high that you'll find some sound tools that work under X. On my Sony NeWS
station, there is a tool xsed, which can record and play sound.

Dear all,

I am having trouble with input focus using OLIT3 and OpenWindows3.

I have a terminal emulator program which has a stub Widget as the terminal
window. When the canvas menu (cut/paste etc) pops down I get a FocusIn event.
Even if the mouse is not in the window any more!! (I am using follow mouse).

Machine: IPX running SunOS4.1.2
Server: OpenWindows3
Window manager: olwm3
Toolkit: OLIT3.0 and Sun supplied Xt

It also occurs when compiled and run on solaris2.0:-
Machine: sparc1 running Solaris2.0
Server: OpenWindows3.0.1
Window manager: olwm3.0.1
Toolkit: OLIT3.0.1 and Sun supplied Xt


However a different (earlier/non-Sun) version of the OPEN LOOK toolkit
(a port of AT&T OLIT2.5 to an ICL SVR4 sparc) does not give the problem - even
with the Sun as the Xserver.
So the problem is in the (OLIT3) toolkit I suspect.

I have added an Xt event handler on my top level widget to spot FocusChange
events.
On FocusIn I call OlSetInputFocus (which I presume calls XSetInputFocus)
and set input focus to my preferred widget which is the terminal window.
On FocusOut all I do is grey the cursor.
Once I get the FocusIn it is already too late it seems.

I notice that the OW3 olitsampler program seems to exhibit something similar
when you pop down the canvas menu in its little textedit pane by clicking
outside the sampler (ie - its textedit widget regains the focus) - so its
not just me. 

I do not know if this works under OLIT2 since the application uses some
features not present in OLIT2.

Any suggestions??

Will it load RLE .BMP files?  I have one that I'd like to convert over to
either plain vanilla .BMP or .PCX.

Normally I would not post something that smacks of advertising but
there seems to be a lot of interest lately in this newsgroup about X over
serial lines. 

If you are interested in using X over dialup lines you may want to
investigate the Qume QX-15 X(11R5) terminal. It is a monchrome X
terminal works very well over serial lines. The terminal is _very_
inexpensive and does not need slip or anything like that. Just a
modem.

**Note** This is definitely a biased opinion as I write server
software for the terminal.

If anyone wants some more info just drop me a line.
