Time Machine Backup Alert
by Zulli, Louis P 05 Jan '09

05 Jan '09

Perhaps this is the "correct" behavior, but I found it disturbing to be suddenly taken from an Inkscape window on my root-screen to a Time Machine backup alert window (ie, I haven't backed up in ten days---bad) on my Desktop. Maybe it makes sense for such alerts to take focus from X11 (and everything else, I suppose), but I thought I'd mention it before I forgot.

Re: [Xquartz-dev] Clipboard problem
by Dave Ray 05 Jan '09

05 Jan '09

I just retested copy-paste on 2.3.2 as well as 2.3.2.1 and I am not observing any problems here. I can copt from Textedit -> xterm, xterm - > Textedit, xterm -> xterm, etc. I am using a real 3-button mouse, the problem may be with button emulation, rather than copy-paste.

Leopard X11 2.3.2
by Jeremy Huddleston 03 Jan '09

03 Jan '09

I'm proud to announce the release of version 2.3.2 of X11 for Leopard. It's been 3.5 months since our last release, and I think it's been well worth the wait. This is by far the largest set of bug fixes and updates since 2.2.0! Thanks to everyone who helped through the betas and release candidates. You can download the dmg here: http://xquartz.macosforge.org/downloads/X11-2.3.2.dmg Full release notes here: http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/X112.3.2 Changes since 2.3.2_rc5: Honor system key repeat rate Got rid of some debug spew about bad modifier keycodes Fixed a possible deadlock / startup race condition xterm 238 to address CVE-2008-2383

X11 servers "dedicated" to an application
by Jeremy Huddleston 02 Jan '09

02 Jan '09

This was brought up last month, and I said functionality was "close" ... it's pretty much here now in 2.3.2_rc5, so if you want to have an X11 server dedicated to a single application (gimp for example), you can do that like this: 1) Copy X11.app to X11Gimp.app 2) edit X11Gimp.app/Contents/Info.plist and change the XFBundleIdentifier from "org.x.X11" to "org.x.X11.gimp" 3) Create a xinitrc.d script to handle starting gimp: $ sudo nano -w /usr/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/95-gimp.sh # Now paste this: if [ "$X11_PREFS_DOMAIN" = "org.x.X11.gimp" ] ; then quartz-wm & exec gimp fi 4) Make that script executable: $ sudo chmod 755 /usr/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/95-gimp.sh Hope that helps whoever wanted it (sorry, I can't find the original email)... There is just one bug that I know of. X11.app doesn't know which quartz-wm belongs to it, so you might have some bugs with Exposé on the second, third, etc X11.apps ... --Jeremy

X11 full-screen issues
by Zulli, Louis P 02 Jan '09

02 Jan '09

Jeremy, First, thanks for all your work in 2008. Now here's some for 2009! I have rc-5 with your X11.bin-20081231 installed. My X11 is set for full-screen mode, but is not open. Terminal.app is open in Space 3. I invoke xcalc from Terminal.app. I get an xcalc window on my root screen. Immediately I do cmd-opt-a, and I get to my desktop in Space 3 with X11 as the active app. I click on the X11 dock icon and nothing happens . (I guess I'd expect to see that xcalc and the root screen again.) Click on the Space 3 desktop to activate Finder. Now click once more on the X11 dock icon. Now I see the xcalc on the root screen. Now for a variation. As above for the first three sentences of the paragraph. This time, instead of clicking the X11 dock icon, I switch to another Space, say Space 2. Finder becomes active. I click on the X11 dock icon. My root screen "flashes by" and I end up with that xcalc window in front of a Space three desktop, but without dock or Apple menu bar. I can use the xcalc just fine, but if I click on anything non-X11 the xcalc window vanishes and I'm really in Space 3. Louis

2.3.2_rc5 KeyPress/KeyRelease
by Jean-Francois Sygnet 01 Jan '09

01 Jan '09

Hi I've noticed a change of behavior between 2.3.2_rc4 and 2.3.2_rc5: in the former pressing a key and keeping it pressed would generate A SERIES of KeyPress/KeyRelease events, while in the latter pressing a key and keeping it pressed would generate only A SINGLE KeyPress event. As far as I know, the new behavior happens in all X applications (at least in Xev, Xterm+Bash, Xterm+Less) but not in non-X applications (Terminal+Bash, Terminal+Less). I've check by reinstalling _rc3 & _rc4 (both with "old" behavior) then _rc5 ("new" behavior). For the record: I use a MacBookPro with a generic 10.5.6 + X11 (no ~/.* files). See below for an (unhelpful ?) Xev output in both cases when pressing the space key. Regardless of this new "feature", I cannot thank you enough for the work you're doing. Happy new year. -- Jean-Francois Sygnet E-mail: jfs00(a)sygnet.info XQuartz 2.3.2_rc4 (xorg-server 1.4.2-apple28) ############################# KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0xa00001, root 0x27d, subw 0xa00002, time 2387836284, (48,47), root:(68,89), state 0x0, keycode 57 (keysym 0x20, space), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " " XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " " XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0xa00001, root 0x27d, subw 0xa00002, time 2387836368, (48,47), root:(68,89), state 0x0, keycode 57 (keysym 0x20, space), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " " XFilterEvent returns: False KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0xa00001, root 0x27d, subw 0xa00002, time 2387836368, (48,47), root:(68,89), state 0x0, keycode 57 (keysym 0x20, space), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " " XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " " XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0xa00001, root 0x27d, subw 0xa00002, time 2387836444, (48,47), root:(68,89), state 0x0, keycode 57 (keysym 0x20, space), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " " XFilterEvent returns: False XQuartz 2.3.2_rc5 (xorg-server 1.4.2-apple30) ############################################# KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0xa00001, root 0x27d, subw 0x0, time 2390161254, (58,69), root:(58,91), state 0x0, keycode 57 (keysym 0x20, space), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " " XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (20) " " XFilterEvent returns: False
