Is linuxconsole.sf.net untouchable?

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

Hi James!

	Are You aware linuxconsole.sf.net front page is partialy
obsolete? You was total careless , bot now You show some
activity.
	It would be nice if You rewrite "New Features"
- multiple current tty.
- each current tty can be assigned with console output
device and input device (keyboard).
- special console output device "frame buffer console"
may be assigned with number of current tty's, where number
is count of registered framebuffer devices.
- each console device may be assigned with nuber of
keyboards.
- one keyboard conjugate with one console device. One
keyboard link to multiple consoles is _not_ permited.
- keyboard - console device link is runtime configurable.
- each console device assigned with bootime configurable
count ouf tty's.
- under X suitable is number of dummy consoles, each
X can use independ keyboard, which is assigned with
headless dummy console.

	In my opinition ruby CVS looks like waste box. That 
CVS does not have any internet link, excluded only Vojtech's
tools like evtest.c jstest.c and so on. I vote moving ruby-2.6
to separate CVS module like ruby.  sf.net have enough
docs how to move whole tree. 
ruby/linux - erase.
ruby/xfree86 - add to fornt page
- tuntico is linux input subsystem event translator to xfree
events , current against XFree 3.3.6 . Suitable for all
input devices as well. Support 6 axis and 12 buttons (or more).
Code still remain unique. Verdict- maintain.
ruby/utils - maintain
ruby/web - seems useless, because it never goes to front.
ruby/docs - ?
ruby/app-pathces - ?

You are native english speaker against my so-so english, so
web space recreating is easy task for You!

	Thank you for the compliment. The problem is that the open source 
model doesn't work very well. The idea of hundreds of programs working a 
small amount to complete a task quickly doesn't happen. What happens is 
two or three developers end up sending huge amounts of spare time to get 
it working over a very very long period of time. There is so much more that
can make ruby and multidesktop linux go much further. I consider ruby very
immature. The current version is no where as developed as our 2.4 tree 
was. Unfortunetly I don't do ruby for a living so I can't back port the 
improvements to the 2.6 tree in the near future. I have talks with the X 
guys about the next generation of X servers and ruby. Its sad but to get
where we want will take over 5 years. You can see that with DRI since it 
ends up support hardware a year more after it comes out. They to are 
volunters who earn nothing in return.  
	We could get there faster if we had $$$ resources so the key 
developers could work on the next generation of software. I just 
don't have the capital to do this and VCs in the US don't like to invest 
anymore unless you can make profits in one month. So if companies want
to use our product that is fine. All we like is to be hired in return :-)

We are finding out the same thing that you noticed, no one seems to care
commercially about multi-user capability from a single box.  Unless you
have a free supply of reliable boxen to run LTSP, this is the best
solution for lots of applications but no one seems to see the advantages
yet.  While it might be our most unique feature, our company is about
getting pre-configured hardware and software combinations to users, and
the multi-user features has actually generated less interest than TV
tuners!

I would love to hire some people to work on the multi-user stuff, but
right now it is mainly marketing and sales that is required.  The
multi-user features only take up about %20 of our development time.  You
probably know about Userful, and their non-open source approach -- I think
they are having a hard time trying to sell stand alone proprietary
multi-user software. (They're probably reading this list and looking at
our scripts as I write this ;)
If you had the funding to hire people, I think there is room for a
multi-user open source software company to compete with Userful, and Open
Sense Solutions would actually purchase software and support from such a
company.  Userful has approached us to become their reseller, but we
cannot make such an important part of our product non-open source.

Maybe in a few months we could start contributing financially to this
project and hiring people or at least offering cash bounties for specific
functionality. If people have ideas or would like to help with
marketing/sales/advertising for the multi-user features we have a small
budget for that, and hopefully more sales will lead to a bigger
development budget.

Thanks,
Mike

   Wow!!! I guess you beat me to the punch. I was planning to try to start 
a company to support this project and so I could actually work on it full 
time. I even wanted to hire the other developers here over time. As you 
must of noticed progress is at a snail pace here because we all have to 
pay the bills and no one ever cared about this project. I have in the past
asked distros and other people for support but nobody cared :-(
   The original code I wrote 2 years ago. Originally we had much more code 
but Vojtech merged in the input changes and I merged the fbdev changes 
into 2.6.X. More fbdev changes need to go in but the majority of it is 
done. Recently I have been busy with the fbdev layer but since I work for a 
living doing something else that progress is at a snail pace as well. Again
nobody cares. So Aivils has been handling this core code base.
   Thanks for the scripts but I doubt you will hire the developers here as 
I was hoping too. This just sends another stake threw my heart. 

multiuser scripts from a commercial vendor

[Michael P. <mp...@op...>]

This is long overdue, but I'd like to formally offer something back to
this project.  My company sells pre-configured Linux machines including
multi-user systems, and everything we do is open source.  While we don't
have the bandwidth to offer our full install disc for download, for
starters I've made a small page containing the most relevant scripts for
the linux console project:

http://groovix.com/linuxconsole.html

Among other things, Groovix scripts detect how many users to run, handle
multi-user sound, and let you plug in mice, keyboards, sound cards, and
video cards wherever you want, while maintaining consistent assignment
between reboots. They are pretty simple scripts, but work well.

You might also get a lot of useful info just by browsing our site,
including exact specifications on what hardware we use.  We tried to give
you guys credit, currently at http://groovix.com/faq.html , third question
down. If you have any questions or suggestions you can send email directly

Yes, I am running Ruby on FC3/x86-64.

I did only what I did on FC1/i386 to make it working. I.e. the kernel
patch, the Xorg PCI isolate patch and the GDM setup and the device
permissions (udev configuration on FC3) and /etc/security/console.perms
tweak so the first user who logs in does not grab all "console" devices.
(sound, etc.)

Maybe it's just I was lucky with my decision to buy two Radeons.

I am running a fairly stock FC3, only the kernel and xorg-x11 RPMS
are patched. I am running kernel-2.6.10-1.741ruby (i.e. two erratas
behind) because later -acX patches broke the ruby patch, and I didn't
have time to refresh it.

Ruby and X on amd64

[Helge H. <hel...@ai...>]

I see you runs ruby on a 64-bit amd cpu.

I do so too, but only in 32-bit mode.  Have you succeeded in running
ruby in 64-bit mode?   I have compiled and booted such a kernel,
but I cannot get both xservers up.

The bios will only initialize one card, the other is initialized by X,
using int10.  With a 64-bit kernel (and a 64-bit xserver),
the xserver quits with no message instead of running the int10
initialization. 

Is something extra needed to make this work with amd64?  Or
is it currently impossible?  Is there any way at all to have an extra
video card initialized?  I have not been able to find any information
at all about this issue.

Voodoo3+TNT2 or VOOdoo3+Voodoo3

[Bruno C. R. <ri...@uf...>]

Hi,
I'm new is this mailing list. 
and my doing my own Multihead system. With
-2 Voodoo3 pci.
OR
-1 Voodoo3 pci and a TNT2 M64 (agp)

But none of them gone well. With 2 voodoo's simply when loading the X for the
second board nothing happens, but the Xfree thinks it is working and Ok. Even
the Xfree86.log shows nothing apropriated.
and i'm using TDFX driver for both of them.

For a Voodoo3 (pci) with TNT2 M64 (agp)
Voodoo with the TDFX driver and TNT2 with NVIDIA driver.
I start the Voodoo3 first e then the TNT2[agp] is the secundary. When loading
the X for the TNT2 the system becomes SLOW and suddenly the 2ºscreen become
to blink with WHITE and BLACK. but X thinks it is Okay too!
In XF86Config-4 i had put to TNT2 to use the int10 module
Option "UseInt10Module" "true"


If anyone got a multihead with some of theses combinations and can give me
some help i really apreciate.

XFree86 4.5.0 + evdev mouse protocol

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

Hi!

With 2.6.10-ruby.vz2 an using SVGATextMode instead of
fb evtest.c shows that /dev/input/event4 reads
everything perfectly from my A4Tech 2 wheel mouse.

XFree86 4.3.0 with the Debian IsolateDevice patch
reads everything also except for buttons 1 + 3:
"press" and "release" are not separated but show up
after a "release".

I've substituted 2 for 1 which does do it right, but
that means I use a two-fingered button press now.

So I tried XFree86 4.5.0 to see if its evdev behavior
is better: guess what: *it does not exist*!

So I tried Xorg: *it does not have it either*!

Regards,

Hugo

Xorg on Ruby 2.6.10-ruby.vz2

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

Hi!

Got a problem with XFree86 and evdev protocol: the
mouse left button does not separate "press" from
"release", but does them both together, so you cannot
drag anything. I "solved it" by making 2->1 which does
separate them but that means pressing both buttons for
button 1.

evtest.c shows that the kernel passes all the data
correctly, so it's X.

To see if Xorg would change things I compiled R682 and
patched it for Ruby (attached).

Some remarks:

Positive:
Yes, you the windows can have shadows. They look good.
Yes, windows can be transparent. That looks good too.

Negative:
It knows nothing of the evdev protocol.
You cannot Alt+Ctrl+F<x> to a vt once in Xorg.
It is *excruciatingly slow*, so as to be no good for
my 850MHz Athlon. Maybe when I get the 2.3GHz
Thoroughbred.
Occasionally, quite often the server dies.

Bottomline: stick with XFree86.

Regards,

Hugo

PS For some reason sourceforge does not send me the
mailing list anymore, but I think I still can send
things...

Some succes with 2.6.11

[Mark H. <Mar...@xs...>]

Hi,


As mentioned earlier, I am trying to get my system up to a more recent
ruby version, so I've tried some of the recently posted patches with
varying results.

1) vanilla 2.6.11 with Aivils 2.6.11-rc4-ruby patch:
- currently working with dual X sessions, very workable
for me :-), but no framebuffer consoles :-(

2) 2.6.11-mm1 with Zoltans 2.6.11-mm1 patch:
- working dual framebuffers; but crash as soon as I start X or when
I switch virtual console. Not workable :-(
(crashes posted earlier)

3) Recently posted (by Aivils) 2.6.11-mm2 with Zoltans 2.6.11-mm2-ruby patch 
(http://www.ltn.lv/~aivils/files/ruby-2.6.11-mm2-2.diff.bz2):
- working dual framebuffers; works great as long as I remain in console
mode :-), but no X :-(
(kernel oops attached at the end of this mail, although at first look it
does not seem ruby, but usb related... any ideas?)

All this is with a Gentoo xorg-6.8.2 system using a set of matrox
cards (G550AGP & G450PCI), using xorg mga driver with matrox HALlib.

So, I'm now using solution 1, since X is what I use the most, but ideally
I would like to see the good results of 1) and 3) combined :-).

Thanks for the good work guys!


Mark.

Hi Vineesh and Members,

I have two questions for you, ok ?
1) Which your video card and driver (release)?
2) Which your Kernel, Xorg or XFree86 ?

I'm have one problem with nVIDIA driver "NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-7167-
pkg1.run", this driver force my XFree86 to consume very process, and
leaving slow mouse and keyboard repeat.  ;)

In my project I running XFree86 4.3 and kernel 2.6.9 b-ruby.

Problem with mouse

[Vineesh <vi...@hc...>]

Hi all,
   Now i am running a four terminal pc with 2.6.7 kernel and redhat 9.0.
My problem is when i loading some heavy applications, (like open
office), the mouses drags. also the total system gets slow for a while
say 20-25 seconds.
I am using a p4 3.2 Ghz processor and 512 MB RAM. I tried also with i GB
ram also still the problem persists.
How ca i solve this problem?
regards
       vineesh

A4Tech mousewheels 2.4.x vs 2.6.x -- II

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

Hi!

(I think sourceforge lost my subscription..)

I have 2 A4Tech mice for (B)Ruby - USB connected.
 
Use the same XFree86 servers + same config, but:
 
in 2.6.x only the top wheel works
 
in 2.4.x both work.
 
Ergonomically that matters because my right
indexfinger rests right on the bottom wheel.
 
It has to be kernel related therefore. Can anybody
give me a hint as to where to start looking to fix
that?
Googling provides no answers, or rather its answers
don't work, they are all X related.

Thanks!
 
Hugo
