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...
