similar to: XKB: Failed to compile keymap

The Neverending Story of X11 Insecurity continues... Summary: On a system where X11R6.3-based Xserver with XKEYBOARD extension (R6.1 is probably affected too) is run in setuid or setgid enviroment (e.g. typical XFree86 installation has XF86_* installed setuid root), local users can exploit a "feature" of XKB implementation to execute arbitrary commands with the extra privileges.

Only one patch, fixing keymap compilation errors when the keycodes maximum is set to a value above the permitted X11 maximum of 255. While we already ignored keys with codes above 255, we still failed on the maximum=374; line that xkeyboard-config 2.24 produces now.

Yet another collection of fixes from master. There will likely be at least one more 1.19.x release in 2018 as there are still a number of unreviewed patches pending. Until then, happy new year. Adam Jackson (10): xfixes: Remove the CursorCurrent array glx: Fix typos that break GLX_ARB_context_flush_control glx: Only flush indirect contexts in MakeCurrent (v2) glx: Fix

This is the first release candidate for xserver 1.20. Notable changes since 1.19 include: - RANDR 1.6, which enables leasing RANDR resources to a client for its exclusive use (e.g. head mounted displays) - Depth 30 support in glamor and the modesetting driver - A meson-based build system, parallel to autotools - Pageflipping support for PRIME output sinks - OutputClass device matching for

Hi all, by googling a bit, it seems that it is possible to use XKB with Wine to configure the keyboard layout. Where can I find more documentation about it ? My problem is that Wine detects and translates the keyboard OK at character level (virtual keys), but the scancodes seem not to be translated and to remain the US ones (although I am not sure to understand what's really going on)

Hi, I made the switch from KDE4->XFCE, and because gdm takes more time than xfce to start I would like to replace it with lightdm. I installed lightdm, set it as default display manager and configured the gtk greeter. However, when I start I only get a black screen (x running) and nothing else happens. When I start it as root with the --test-mode argument, I get the following message: lightdm

Hello all, I installed Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit on my DELL Studio XPS 1645 notebook, graphic card is a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670. I installed also proprietary ati drivers using Ubuntu administration applet, along with Wine 1.2 from package manager. All seems to work properly. This is fglrxinfo output: $ fglrxinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer

Package: xen-hypervisor-3.4-i386 Version: 3.4.3-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I tried on 2 machines with ati's and intel's video card, both xservers fail to work. xserver works well with linux-image-2.6.32-5-xen-686(with out xen.gz) and linux-image-2.6.32-5-686. I also tried xen-hypervisor-4.0-i386, the problem is still there. Free fill to ask for more info.

This merges the DRI3 1.2 support (with an asterisk) and per-window flips for Xwayland, along with the usual collection of miscellaneous fixes. In particular the meson build is much closer to production- ready. The asterisk for DRI3 is that the modesetting driver has some known issues still, so the code to enable planes and modifiers is hidden behind an xorg.conf option: Section

I just purchased a Dell Inpiron 9300 from the Dell Outlet store. Installing CentOS4 went very, very smoothly until I tried configuring X. The 17" screen has a 16:10 aspect ratio with a 1920x1200 resolution. The best I could manage using system-config-display was 1600x1200. So, after a bit of research, I hand editted the xorg.conf file (reproduced below) and it now works great. Maybe

This release adds the path of the xkbcomp executable to the pkgconfig data, allowing the X server to find the right binary regardless of where its (the X servers) $prefix is pointed. Without this the X server will guess that xkbcomp is configured for the same prefix; since the default prefix is /usr/local, and your distribution certainly did not install xkbcomp there, 'make check' and

Hi, This xkbcomp release mostly contains a couple of bugfixes and parser improvements. Notably, ignoring keycodes that X11 can never support means that we can start using those keycodes, which xkbcommon supports. Cheers, Daniel Benno Schulenberg (1): When overriding a key, adjust also its number of levels (#57242). Daniel Stone (2): keycodes: Ignore high keycodes xkbcomp

Couple of minor fixes, the only user-visible change is that the warning when a key type is shortened is now on a verbosity level above the default verbosity. This effectively removes the warning below for all users of the german keyboard layout (and others): Type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 symbols Alan Coopersmith (1): Stop including <X11/Xalloca.h>

Adam Jackson (1): Suppress high-keycode warnings at the default warning level Alan Coopersmith (1): Update configure.ac bug URL for gitlab migration Andreas Boll (2): pkgconfig: Remove unneeded Requires.private configure: Remove unused AC_SUBST([REQUIRED_MODULES]) Andreas Wettstein (1): xkbcomp Fix missing support for "affect" and incorrect modifier

Just two pretty minor changes here, but the last one might be a startup time win, so might as well ship it. (Should be in 7.4.)
