This at least fixes Karl's gripe about changing the buffers tab face changing the whole world. There is still the bug that attributes for the current frame are not changed. andy 2000-01-11 Andy Piper <andy(a)xemacs.org> * gutter-items.el (buffers-tab): Create a new face for the buffers tab.

21.2.26 config failure on NT 25 years, 2 months

Raymond Toy

I apologize if I've already sent this in. I don't recall see the message at all. While configuring 21.2.26 on NT with cygwin, the autodetect of sound fails to detect NAS, which I have installed and working on NT. (It worked with version beta 23, the last version I build on NT.) The problem is when configure tries to find AuOpenServer, it fails to link with -lXau to get an authorization routine. To get past this point, I had to add it to the list of libraries to link with. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about configure to know how to fix this. This problem also shows up later when trying to make xemacs. Linking temacs fails for the same reason we couldn't detect AuOpenServer: the link needs to include the libXau library. I suppose this might be a problem of the X11 libraries I have. These are the ones that Andy made for cygwin 19.1 a very long time ago. Ray

People could want for instance to preserve the buffer name from being scrolled out. The idea came to me almost by accident. However, I'm not strongly attached to it, so if the majority thinks it's a bad idea, I'm ready to remove that part. -- / / _ _ Didier Verna http://www.inf.enst.fr/~verna/ - / / - / / /_/ / EPITA / LRDE mailto:didier＠epita.fr /_/ / /_/ / /__ / 14-16 rue Voltaire Tel. +33 (1) 44 08 01 77 94276 Kremlin-Bicêtre cedex Fax. +33 (1) 44 08 01 99

Strange error message (INTERNAL EMACS BUG) 25 years, 2 months

Martin Gregory

In XEmacs 21.0 "20 minutes to Nikko" [Lucid] (sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1) of Fri Apr 9 1999 on brabham configured using `configure --prefix=/app_share/xemacs/21.0.67 --with-jpeg=no' When I switch my virtual window manager window away from a virtual window in which I have a Windows terminal server running back to the window in which xemacs is, I get the message you can see below. I have no idea what is special about the Windows terminal server window, except perhaps that it causes colormap flashing on my xterm (if that means anything) wheras none of the other virtual windows do. Also, when I come back from the Windows window, the "I beam" cursor in xemacs is too fat. It changes back if I take it off the xemacs frame and back on again. The error message below occurs even if focus is not given back to xemacs - the message happens as soon as the virtual window is mapped back. It doesn't happen every time, either, of course :-) I'm using fvwm2 for window manager. Wierd, huh? Martin.

Debian is the only system I know of where having the paths for ld and the dynamic loader are different _and_ a 3D Athena library is placed, named `libXaw.so' in the dynamic load path before the real Xaw library. > If so, you can pick it up by running > > (a) /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep 'libXaw.so.6 \(libc6\).*' | head -1 > (b) grep -i xaw /etc/ld.so.conf | head -1 > or (c) dpkg -l xaw* > > (a) and (b) are probably portable to any glibc system and possibly to > others, (c) only works on Debian. Ugly, but workable, no? Well, yes. I will have a hack at implementing something like this and, at the least, spitting out a warning about the problem. > AFAIK you don't have to be root to use any of those tests (where > available on the system). > > Daniel> It's not actually fixable easily (thanks, Debian) as far > Daniel> as I can see. > > But we only need to detect it and use explicit linking of Xaw3d (or > error and die, if getting that far means we don't know how to > explicitly link Xaw3d), right? Well, that would make the Debian XEmacs binaries depend on the 3D library of choice. I think that the behavior is to detect the Debian lossage, spit out a nasty message and indicate that requesting one of the 3D Athena varieties is needed. > It's the Debian maintainer who has to worry about how to deal with > different libraries on different systems in the Debian release. Well, I guess. So long as our sysadmins here don't decide to make a shared NFS drive available to the two or three dozen Debian boxes we have or something. If they do, it's their problem :/ Still, it's not /that/ big a deal, I guess. Daniel -- They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself. -- Andy Warhol
