Re: Xorg port setup problem



Shantonu,

Thanks a lot.
Second set of directions did not work for me. I used first one and now I'm able to start WindowMaker. This is my first experience with XDarwin and now I wondering how to start XDM on system startup.


Thanks again,
Mikhail.

Hi Shantonu,

XFree86 looks better but still no luck. After exec startx I can see only:

XFree86 Version 4.5.0 / X Window System

       If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your hardware is
       newer than the above date, look for a newer version before
       reporting problems.  (See http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)

end nothing else. I did copied /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc to ~/.xinitrc before.

Thanks,
Mikhail.

The "xorg" darwinport is broken, and has not been patched to compile with either gcc 3.3 or gcc 4.0. The "XFree86" darwinport should work fine though. Try it out.

The symptom you describe of empty files is exactly the bug I fixed in the XFree86 port.

Sorry, of course I meant Xorg, just a typo. Actually I believe it is a port problem, because all man pages are just empty files and it looks like X server is not installed at all. May be I need to compile and install Xorg source distribution.

Thanks,
Mikhail.

Well, first you have to know that I'm new to darwin .....

But from what I learn on my linux box the command is "Xorg -- configure" (capital X)
I guess you already try with capital X but that was just to be more accurate.
I'm afraid I have no clues to help you Mikhail .... My Darwin experience is very (too) poor ....


Sorry,

Hi Yann,

It is good question. There is no such file in whole system. What is correct place and how to create this file? On my Freebsd 5.4 box I could type xorg --configure, copy result to /etc/X11 and I'm done. What about Darwin? There is no xorg file in a system. May I borrow xorg.conf some where for my Compaq D510?

Thanks,
Mikhail.

Hi Mikhail,

Could you give us more details about your xorg.conf file ????

There is no .xinitrc in my home directory and /etc/X11/ xinit/ xinitrc file is empty after xorg port install.
OK. I've installed windowmaker from a port and created simple .xinitrc like this:


exec wmaker

Nothing changed. In my best knowledge even without .xinitrc xinit has to start X server "X" with blank screen and mouse pointer on it. Instead if it xinit complains that there is no "X" server in my path. But there is no X in whole file system!

Thanks,
Mikhail

Hi,

I just have installed Darwin 8.0.1 and Xorg port. Then wen I tried to startx nothing happened:

~ root# startx
~ root#

If I try xinit then:

~ root# xinit
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): no server "X" in PATH


Use the -- option, or make sure that /usr/X11R6/bin is in your path and that
"X" is a program or a link to the right type of server for your display.
Possible server names include:


   Xorg         X.Org displays
   XDarwin         Darwin/Mac OS X IOKit displays
   XDarwinQuartz   Mac OS X Quartz displays
   XDarwinStartup  Auto-select between XDarwin and  XDarwinQuartz

xinit:  Server error.

Some additional information:
