Upgraded to Xorg 7.0 - Where is GLXgears?
I have just upgraded to xorg 7.0. glxgears and glxinfo are no longer present on my system. What is the package that I need to install to get them back?

Thanks Snowman. I had read that it was in mesa-apps on one post, but that package doesn't seem to exist any more. I tried xorg-apps, and such a package DOES exist. I d/l'd it - that worked, but no GLXgears. Not sure WHAT I got from that package actually.
I had read that mesa was somehow outdated and dangerous now - one of many posts I read while searching the forums for answers. Do I run the risk of breaking anything if I download and install it? These days it seems that every time I install anything new, I break a bunch of other stuff. Rolling release is great, but only if you keep up with it all the time!
Thanks.
This is all outdated information.
glxinfo and glxgears were in mesa-apps but recently they were moved in the mesa package.
The part about mesa unsafe was that before the splitted xorg 7.0, there was a mesa package in extra that could conflict/cause problems with the mesa drivers from xorg. This is no longer the case. That mesa package in extra has been removed and the mesa package in current is the one from xorg. There shouldn't be any problem using mesa.
Run 'pacman -Ql xorg-apps' to see what's in xorg-apps.

[solved]wacom doesn't work after upgrade to xorg 1.6 and kernel 2.6.29
hello..
i have already posted about that in testing-forums, but since xorg 1.6 and kernel 2.6.29 have moved to extra, though i'd create a seperate topic about that.
after i have upgraded to xorg 1.6 and kernel 2.6.29 my wacom device (as built-in, not usb) on my thinkpad x41t stopped working.
before upgrade i have used xorg with hotplugging enabled. everything worked fine.
after wacom stopeed working i removed everything regarding input devices from xorg.conf -> no change
put an fdi-file for wacom -> no change
installed linuxwacom-dev -> no change
i don't really know, if it's a kernel or an xorg issue. loading wacom drivers manually still doesn't solve the problem. no warnings or errors about wacom in xorg-log or messages.log
how could i check, wether my system recognizes the device properly at all? it doesn't show up in lspci or in lsusb.
any help would be great.
Last edited by lynucs (2009-04-14 18:57:17)well, upgraded again to xorg-server 1.6, disabled hotplugging, installed linuxwacom-dev from aur and the wacom works as allways. (had to edit xmodmap one more time, since kbd returns other keycodes than evdev does :-| ). no matter, done is done.
but intel driver returns broken graphics if i rotate screen with xrandr.
i guess there is no way around this execpt switching to the ultra-slow legacy driver?
just for comparison - glxgears fps:
intel: ~900fps
intel-legacy: ~280fps

[Solved] Problem with xf86-video-intel after upgrade to xorg 1.16
Hi everyone,
since the upgrade to xorg-server 1.16 i can't get X to work again on my thinkpad R50e with an old intel integrated chip (Intel Extreme Graphics 2).
I first encountered the error "cannot open /dev/tty0": http://okraits.de/upload/xorg/Xorg.0.log
Then i created /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config: http://okraits.de/upload/xorg/Xwrapper.config
Then i got the error "failed to set mode": http://okraits.de/upload/xorg/Xorg.1.log
My xorg.conf looks like this: http://okraits.de/upload/xorg/xorg.conf
I start X with startx and this .xinitrc: http://okraits.de/upload/xorg/.xinitrc
I have no clue how to fix this. Any help would be much appreciated!
Greetings,
Oliver

How do you start X? Note you must start X from the same VT where you login, if you use Xorg.bin (no setuid). From your log there're mentions of /dev/tty0 and "Using VT number 2", so I suppose that might be the problem.
If you simply use `startx`, the actual process running will be something like
/usr/bin/Xorg.bin -nolisten tcp :0 -auth /tmp/serverauth.XXXXXXXXXX vt1
Note the `vt1` in the line must be specified, where 1 is the value of $XDG_VTNR in the VT where you login.
Edit
In my log there's something yours are missing
[ 45.465] (++) using VT number 1
[ 45.465] (--) controlling tty is VT number 1, auto-enabling KeepTty
I login at tty1 (which is the first one visible after boot) and run startx from there.
I added the following to my .xinitrc:
echo "vt: $XDG_VTNR"
The output was:
vt: 1
That would be ok, right? Or is it $XDG_VTNR + 1?
So i am wondering what is forcing X to use vt 2. Or how i can tell X to use vt 1.

I am trying to install Photoshop Elements on my new Windows 8 computer (I recently upgraded my windows 7 computer where Photoshop was working fine on before). It says the serial number is invalid. Do older versionsnot work on Windows8, or do I need to uninstall it from my old computer first?
You are allowed to have two activated installations. If you happened to have one on this Windows 8 machine before, it is possible that the activation used for it was never deactivated (did you deactivate it before you upgraded Windows?). Talk to Adobe support thru chat. They might be able to resolve this with you:

I have photoshop 6 on a dead pc laptop with windows XP. Have a pc laptop that has been upgraded from Vista 64 bit (where phootshop 6 wouldn't install) to windows 7 professional 32 bit (clean install). Photoshop still won't install. Also having reinstallation issues with pse6 on this same pc. Pse6 was installed and working on vista 64bit version of the OS, now won't install on rebuilt windows professional 7 32bit (keeps giving me serial number not valid errors). I'm not trying to pirate these programs. Just want to reinstall them.
you need,
Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 4, 5, or 6a, or Windows Millennium
Microsoft Windows 98/Millennium/2000/NT 4.0 (Service Pack 4, 5, or 6a required) -
Random blackout atfer upgrading to xorg 1.6?
OK, I'm not very sure if this is related to xorg, here is the situation:
After upgrading to xorg 1.6, I restart X and start firefox to surf the internet,
atfer a few hours of usage, my screen suddenly blackouts, and it seems like a hard crash,
I can't use crtl-alt-backspace to kill X nor use crtl-alt-Fn to switch between virtual consoles,
this is very frustrating since I'm always very proud of my super-rock-solid Arch,
I have NEVER had issue like this, since it happens after upgrading to xorg 1.6,
I suspect the incident is related to it,
does anyone have a similiar situation?
any suggests or thoughts would be very appriciated.

AltGr key not working after upgrade to Xorg 7.3
So, I upgraded to Xorg 7.3, and everything seemingly worked fine.
Then I tried writing an e-mail address, and pressing AltGr+2 which should give me an (at) symbol didn't work. After fiddling about abit, I concluded that AltGr did not work at all.
I tried the suggested solutions in the wiki, but none worked for me. I also tried setting Option "XkvVariant "nodeadkeys", but no luck there either.
Here's the keyboard section of my xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "no"
Option "XkbVariant" ""
EndSection
This worked like it should before the upgrade.
As you may have noticed, I have a norwegian keyboard. And if it helps, it's a laptop keyboard - I have a HP nc8430.
Pressing and releasing AltGr in xev produces this output:
FocusIn event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001,
mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor
KeymapNotify event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
keys: 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
I'm not entirely sure if this is relevant tough.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I should perhaps add this:
I'm not using a composite manager like Compiz or Beryl, and I do not have composite nor AIGLX enabled in my xorg.conf.
I'm using the fglrx driver.
Last edited by sunn (2007-11-07 16:28:46)It seems the problem has resolved itself. I did a pacman -Syu today, and although only libsamplerate was upgraded, my AltGr key functions properly again. Kind of weird, as libsamplerate seems to have something to do with audio.. But hey, it works, and I'm not complaining.

TVTime doesn't works after upgrade to Xorg 1.7.1-1 [Solved]
Hi to everyone:
My TVTime worked until the upgrade to Xorg 1.7.1-1 .
Now, I'm launching the TVTime, and the console shows this :

Running tvtime 1.0.2.
Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml
Reading configuration from /home/user/.tvtime/tvtime.xml

*** tvtime requires hardware YUY2 overlay support from your video card

*** this capability is only available with their binary drivers.
*** For some ATI cards, this feature may be found in the experimental

I just downloaded iPhoto 9.5 to replace my old ver. 7.x. Downloaded the library upgraded but have no idea where it installed as it is not listed in Applications. Opened iPhoto added my Library (12.5 GB) but iPhoto shows no pictures. In fact, iPhoto indicates that I have zero photos in the library while at the same time indicating the file size as 12.5 GB.
If your old iPhoto version was iPhoto 7, you need to run the iPhoto Library upgrader: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1523
It will install itself in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder.
Run it, and after that, you should be able to open your iPhoto Library with iPhoto '11. -
Upgrade to Xorg 7.0 - Screen Jitters
I just upgraded to Xorg 7.0. Unfortunately, the screen jitters every 5 second or so. It is very annoying.
I am using an old Toshiba 4020CDT laptop with Chips and Tech CT 65555 Video chipset.
I installed the xf86-video-chips driver.
Any suggestions?
RobI solved it. Xorg --configure did not create a proper xorg.conf. It choose the vesa driver, not the chips driver. It also did not specify the HorizSync and VertRefresh.
In the Monitor Section, I added the following:
HorizSync 31.5 - 48.5
VertRefresh 50.0 - 90.0
In the Device section, I changed Driver "vesa" to Driver "chips"
In the Screen section, I added the following:
DefaultDepth 16
Now it works great!

I now have OS x version 10.5.8 and need to upgrade yo OS10.9. Where do I start?? Is there a discount for educators? Thanks, Rob
No discount for anyone. If you can upgrade your hardware to Mavericks, then it will cost you $20 bucks.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply. -
I am trying to download CS5.5, which I purchased. But I can only find the upgrade software to download. Where is the non-upgrade version of CS5.5???
There is no upgrade version. The serial number that you use dictates whether or not the software is treated as an upgrade. If you purchased it as an upgrade then the serial number you have is an upgrade serial number and that will require you to provide proof that you qualify ro install/use the upgrade.

My Creative SBS250 speakers no longer work after upgrading to Snow Leopard. Where can I find the driver? Thanks
Everyone in my household who has upgraded to Snow Leopard has had the same problems with program crashes and the computer "forgetting" registration codes.
In fact, after re-entering codes, and then upgrading to 10.6.1, we had to re-enter them again because it forgot (again) that we had bought/registered the software. It was a lot of fun digging through old emails and such looking for the codes, let me tell you.
I'm pulling a Vista and downgrading my computer back to 10.5.x. That was stable and remembered my software, at least. -
Cannot access iphoto since upgraded to OS X Yosemite. Following the message to use the library upgrader is getting me no where. I followed the install prompts and still cannot access my own photos. Very frustrating. I've tried 5 or 6 times already and end up with the same result. NOTHING...

As for the TimeCapsule indeed, I use it as an extended drive but I'm surprised it would be considered a FAT-32 formatted drive as this is an Apple device.
I asked the apple reps if I could use the TimeCapsule for such purpose and no one raised a concern. It's also surprising that I didn't have an issue with this prior to the upgrade to OS X Yosemite.
Having said the above, thank you for your help - if the TimeCapsule is indeed the issue, perhaps I can solve the issue by transferring the iphoto library to an OS extended hard drive.
