Xfbdev-jwm-desktop bug
« on: January 09, 2025, 03:17:39 AM »
When I install Xfbdev-jwm-desktop on fresh installation
it installs jwm.tcz in first place.
jwm.tcz should be installed before Xsever. Otherwise
Code: [Select]
echo "jwm" > /etc/sysconfig/desktopcan't be done because /etc/sysconfig/desktop doesn't exist, if Xserver was not installed.

The solution is to put Xfbdev.tcz on top of this list. Could you change it?

I tested this in fresh installation and the problem still exist, because xorg-server.tcz is installed as the last extension, not the first.



BTW. There should be 2 main extensions. Xorg.tcz (2D), Xorg-3D and others should have small letter xorg-server, xorg-bin.

There should be also note in info file:
Code: [Select]
sudo Xorg -configure
mv /root/xorg.conf /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/xorg.conf

The problem was because lack of xorg.conf

There should be a script "xorgsetup' that generate xorg.conf in
/usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/

or vesaconf
Code: [Select]
Section "Device"
    Identifier  "VESA Framebuffer"
    Driver      "vesa"
    Option      "ShadowFB" "true"
    #VideoRam    4096
    # Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection
and fbdevconf

Code: [Select]
Section "Device"
    Identifier "FBDEV"
    Driver "fbdev"
    Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb0"
    Option "ShadowFB" "true"
EndSection

My extension works correct. The problem is with xorg-server.tcz.

It should work without any configuration (in fresh installation) like in old times, but it's not work anymore. Newbies need to type:

Code: [Select]
sudo Xorg -configure
mv /root/xorg.conf /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/xorg.conf

If the GPU is recognized it wrond way, black screen appears, newbies can't use Ctr-Alt-Backspace. And only solution is to reboot machine.

We have xsetup for Xvesa and Xfbev, why can we has similar for Xorg?
