I'm pleased to announce that I've posted source and binaries on
http://www.x.org/wiki/XDarwin for Xquartz 1.2a7. Since 1.2a6,
the following issues have been resolved:
* JIS (Japanese) keyboards are now correctly detected by X11.
* Xvfb and Xnest now compile cleanly; I have not tested them, but
binaries are available at http://people.freedesktop.org/~bbyer/x11app/
* The "offset-pointer"/"ghost window" bug with Spaces has been
resolved correctly (this is my second attempt). This means you can
now use the F8 function to zoom out and drag a window from one
Space to another with your mouse. Unfortunately, due to a known
issue in Spaces itself, you can not drag X11 windows to the edge of
the screen to move them to the next screen.
* A focus problem was fixed -- previously, clicking on an X11
window that was behind an Aqua window would not always bring the
X11 window to the foreground (but clicking on any other X11 window
usually would.) I'm sure I'll be proven wrong, but at the moment I
have fixed all of the focus problems that I know about.
Older fixes:
* 1.2a6 contained a speed fix for apps such as the Gimp and rdesktop
* 1.2a5 contained a first attempt at a fix for the "offset-pointer"
Spaces bug, but it was flawed.
* 1.2a4 fixed a SafeAlphaComposite bug that caused some GTK apps to
crash with a BadMatch error in 24-bit mode. It also fixed the focus
issue that made it difficult to bring any X11 apps to the
foreground (workaround was to click the X11 Dock icon, twice)
* 1.2a3 and earlier fixed:
"fake mouse button support" -- e.g. Option-click to middle-click
Crashes in Damage code due to Rootless conflict (need -
DROOTLESS_WORKAROUND)
custom entries in the Applications menu would not work if they
contained spaces (arguments) due to a lack of proper string escaping
The formatting in the .xinitrc warning message was fixed
We now release all modifier keys if X11 is deactivated -- this
should fix "stuck shift / capslock" issues
Crashes in QueryFontReply
PseudoramiX support was enabled by default, which allows windows
to be dragged between displays in multiple-display setups. It also
prevents X11 windows from being dragged behind the X11.app menu bar.
The "yellow cursor on Intel" bug was fixed.
This update has fixed the keyboard mapping problem on my JIS keyboard
and X11 applications works much better with Spaces now.
Let me tell you that Ben, ....., you rock!!!!!
Keep doing this kind of work, X11 is becoming very nice.
Regards,
Hakime
