[Xquartz-dev] 2.3.1_beta1

Fri Aug 8 21:08:08 PDT 2008

Hi,

I just tried it on a PPC eMac with a one button mouse and the emulate 
three button mouse option turned on and I have noticed some issues. I did 
a reboot after the install just to make sure.

One thing is that the auto launch stuff does not seem to work right. I did 
this from a Terminal.app window with X11 not running:

eMac:~ mzs$ xterm
Xlib: connection to "/tmp/launch-rNpZny/:0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified

xterm Xt error: Can't open display: /tmp/launch-rNpZny/:0

Here is the output from the console:

That quitting Xquartz stuff is there because I wanted to verify that I did 
not have any ~/.X* files on this machine so I quit it and tried again 
after I found out there were no such files.

The other thing is that I could have sworn that the emulate three button 
mouse used to use option and command. It now seems to use ctrl and option. 
This makes it so that you can't do the menus in xterm. I have not had to 
use a one button mouse is a really long time but I swear it used to work 
that way. I wonder if I can work around i with xmodmap?

Also the ctrl key does not seem to be very reliable. One way to have it 
not work is to first hold down ctrl in another app (not X11) and then 
click on an xterm. Until you let go of the ctrl key it does not work. I 
think this was the case before, but now it is that every so often ctrl 
is not detected even if I am all the time in X11 and I do not know what 
triggers that.

Also the ssh X11 forwarding did not seem to work very well at first. I 
sshed into a remote host (FreeBSD) and I got this (that I used to see a 
lot):

Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.

Then I tried to do an xlogo on that remote host and got this:

Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server
Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
Error: Can't open display: localhost:10.0

I did a log out and then I simply sshed in again (to the same host) and 
this time I did not get the xauth warning and also the xlogo worked fine! 
Now it keeps working fine again and again.

I am going to be on vacation for quite a bit so this may be all that I can 
offer for a while, I hope it helps.
