faketty + suspend2?

[Hugo V. <hvw...@ya...>]

Hi,

Anybody ever tried suspend2?

I tried it (AGP TNT2, PCI MX-440) but after resuming
never could start X again either with nv, or nvidia.

Its homepage:

ummm I did:
mknod /dev/ftty0 c 13 96
mknod /dev/ftty1 c 13 96
mknod /dev/ftty2 c 13 96
...

I never used mknod before and after 1 hour of searching I couldn't find 
documentation on what I needed to run exactly. I scanned the man page of 
mknod, searched google, read the doctument about multiple X, and the only 
thing I could find on this mailing list about it was the "mknod /dev/ftty0 c 
13 96" in the 0.04 release notes. Where is this information that I missed?

Anyhow, did it like you said above and now it picks up the other keyboards. 
Sorry for my ignorance in this area and I appreciate the help, keep up the 
good work!

Now to get a dual core Ath64, dual PCIe 16x, raid SATA, and dual 1gig sticks 
of ram some day...

Thanks!

Vertical mouse problem solution

[Yitzhak B. G. <yit...@ya...>]

Really funny. We don't know what causes the vertical
mouse problem. It only occurs when working with
faketty, but after performing:
service hotplug restart
everything works OK.
Yitzhak

Mouse moves only vertically

[Yitzhak B. G. <yit...@ya...>]

We have installed ftty 0.4, so far with two consoles.
We often have a strange problem: the mouse on the
second console, tty51, only moves up and down. There
is no horizontal movement. Rebooting the computer
usually solves the problem.

Do You realy use mknod? If that is right, then You must do
mknod /dev/ftty0 c 13 96
mknod /dev/ftty1 c 13 97
mknod /dev/ftty2 c 13 98
...

thanks for trying to help, sorry didn't add these details earlier. Anyhow 
herethey are:
What are /dev/tty50-3 linked to?:

Re: vt7 + faketty + hijacled!

[Daniel W. <da...@in...>]

Hi,

We found a solution for the problem here. We do not start any getty at 
"inittab" and instead have only the command:

1:2345:once:setterm -blank 0 -powerdown 0

In that way we avoid the kernel to turn off the video cards and can use 
all X on faketty.

Works fine here.

Daniel

faketty 0.04 problem.

[Nathan H. <ho...@ho...>]

I am using kernel 2.6.13 and trying to get faketty-0.04 to work.
I managed to make the ftty devices, (mknod /dev/ftty[0-9] c 13 96) and 
/dev/ftty0 picks up only one of the keyboards, but /dev/ftty[1-9] don't pick 
up any other keyboard. I figured this out using 'cat /dev/ftty[1-9]'. Other 
than that I managed to get a second X up with a second mouse, but no 
keyboard input. One thing that confuses me is 'cat /proc/bus/input/devices' 
returns back the keyboards/mice and shows that some of the keyboards are 
handled by ftty[1-9] (e.g: H: Handlers=kbd event2 ftty1)

I have hooked up 4 keyboards (1 PS/2, 3 USB) and 3 mice trying to get this 
to work. Any idea what could be wrong?

Thanks

Hi Gareth,

Have you experienced any locking problems with your NVidia cards? We=20
have tried using GeForce cards and after a while we got some black=20
screens and had to restart the X on that card (usually the third or=20
fourth). Sometimes restarting X wouldn't work and we had to reboot. We=20
managed to reproduce the error by running xscreensaver on all four=20
heads. "lsmod" would show the nvidia module loaded more than 200 times.

vt7 + faketty + hijacled!

Is there any way for me to avoid the kernel of putting the video on=20

automatic login for second X server

Hi,

First of all I am very pleased with the ruby patch! My girlfriend can 
look anime with freevo (well, she is Japanese) while I am playing around 
on my Debian box. Great!

There is one thing I didn't get to work yet. I configured gdm in such a 
way that the first X server is started on my CRT and the second on my 
TV. Now I want to automatically login for the second X server (no 
keyboard). Unfortunately, options in gdm only allow this for the first X 
server. Automatically login for both X servers would also be fine for me.

Does anybody have a solution? Maybe get rid of gdm totally and start X 
from a startup script? Any suggestions?

Thanks alot!

You are on the wrong way!
dspXX cannot be associated with any ttyXX or fttyXX.
Sound devices can be assoiated with environment variable.
gmd (desktop manager at least) is a parent of X servers.
gmd creates unique environment variable for each X server.
That variable is DISPLAY=":0" in my case. Any userspace
program, which are started from this process tree can
check out variable DISPLAY.
Getting involved:
# export
# ps -AH

foxy programs can replace /dev/dps0 symbolic links
in runtime according environment variable DISPLAY.

X1wrap exists into faketty package. You must edit that X1wrap file.
You must enter right keyboard physicaly location:
PHYS=isa0060.serio0.input0 - means location of PS/2 1st keyboard.
In abstract any fttyXX file can handle any keyboard. X1wrap can
determine which ftty handle necessary keyboard device. X1wrap check 
out /proc/bus/input/devices and creates symbolic link to ftty device. Then
X1wrap start X server with proper vtXX option.

device physicaly location is unique. Take a look into /proc/bus/input/devices
That file contain information about ftty too.

Using Dual head card with framebuffer

[Claude F. <cf...@gm...>]

Hello to everyone,

     For quite a while now, I have been trying to get an ATI Radeon  
7000 Dual headed to work with XFree86 4.3.0. What I'd like to do is  
the following:

A) Put more than one card in the system (3 in fact... 2 PCI and 1  
AGP) Have each head of the cards to work independently
Example:    Card #1 --> head #1 = /dev/fb0, head #2 = /dev/fb1
                      Card #2 --> head #1 = /dev/fb2, head #2 = /dev/fb3
                      Card #3 --> head #1 = /dev/fb4, head #2 = /dev/fb5

Is this possible with radeon or NVidia Card? I know it is with Matrox  
G400 & G450

B) Have multiple X server to run independently and simultaneously  on  
each cards head (I was able to do this with 6 cards with PCI address  
method ex: 1:0:0 but not with frame buffer on dual head)

So far, FrameBuffer is working on only one card, and one head...  
really basic.

My questions.

1) Is this the correct place to ask this question? If not what are  
other resources or website.

2) If you know how to achieve my task in section A, help me please...


What I have found so far on radeonfb is VERY old documentation  
(2002)... I need more recent stuff.


Thanks to everyone...

Success - at last

[Gareth J. <in...@sp...>]

Hi, 

Yesterday I finally managed to get a working four seat Linux implementation,
using faketty0.4 on top of a patched Fedora 4 distribution. I'm very
pleased.

The details:
Software:
Fedora4 2.6.13-vz3.1 (james van zeeland's patch)
Fedora core 4 distribution
Faketty0.4
Latest nvidia binary drivers compiled for the above kernel
Hardware:
MSI KT6 Delta mainboard
AMD XP2800
1 nvidia mx4000 agp
3 nvidia mx4000 pci
USB devices:
2 microsoft multimedia keyboards
1 cherry multimedia keyboard with hub
1 hp multimedia jeyboard with hub 
4 logitech mice
Screens
4 x iiyama prolite e380s

I've been working on this on and off for 6 months. I need to thank michael
pardee from groovix for all his initial help, and James for his more recent
help with this - and of course alvis!

I've sent some stuff to James for inclusion in his howto - and I'll write
something up as well on th eprocess I went through to get to the current
implementation. Briefly, it involved Groovix (michaels debian
implementation), ubuntu (which hung as soon as I tried to log in), and now
the current set of software.

The hardest part does seem to be determining which usb devices are attahced
to where - I used lsusb for this. The main xfree multi user howto has a
useful piece on this - which I'd forgotten about.

I want to change the way in which my usb devices are plugged into the system
- I'm dreading this as it took so long to get it right - hopefull this will
be easier the second time around. A good multi posrt usb 2.0 hub is needed
so I can get some of the keyboards and mice away from the main tower.

I'm planning to use this as a series of kiosk type screens for my photogrphy
business, where I need lots of people to be able to browse, so the next step
is a kiosk browser and locking down the desktop - I may try to adapt
boothbox or just modify the firefox uxl.

Hope you find this interesting.

faketty - another input module for TTY emulation

[Aivils S. <ai...@un...>]

Hi,All!

Current X server uses TTY mostly to get character on
keyboard key press. I was decide to merge evdev.c,
keyboard.c, vt_ioctl.c and create simple handler, which
is capable send character from keyboard to X server.

Input layer allow us register unlimited count of
handlers. All these handlers recieve events from input
device drivers and send output to device files or
kernel subsytems. faketty register new input handler
named ftty and send characters from keyboard to
device files /dev/input/fttyXX. fttyXX device files
is created for X server. All unnecessary features
are deleted:
No VT switch,
No text mode,
No terminal-io or VT ioctl's.
ftty ioctl's will work for keyboard rate and beeper.
Files /dev/input/fttyXX will be created for each
keyboard or speaker device. On fttyXX open keyboard
disconnected from normal text console and send keypress
events to fttyXX opener application only. So each
keyboard is separate now.

faketty is designed for peoples which will run multiple
X servers, each for another user, at same time on one linux box.
You can cheat X very simple:
modprobe faketty
rm -f /dev/tty50
ln -s /dev/input/ftty0 /dev/tty50
startx -- vt50
Now X uses keyboard via ftty. If multiple keyboards are
pluged in, just choose right fttyXX file. Take a look into
/proc/bus/input/devices.

http://www.ltn.lv/~aivils/files/faketty-0.04.tar.bz2

Of course You can reach same result if X server does not
touch /dev/ttyXX at all, but uses his own evdev drivers.
Current X allways uses TTY.

[Aivils S. <ai...@un...>]

Hi, All!

faketty 0.04

- ftty device node minor base is 96
- faketty now creates /dev/fttyXX devices for keyboards and speakers only

Minor base was same as for touch screen (128) , for now is free cipher.
mknod /dev/ftty0 c 13 96

If redundant devices files fttyXX does not distrub You, then upgrade
is not necessary.
