nxagent from nx-3.2.0-r2 fails:
---------
andrej@af ~/a $ nxagent :1

NXAGENT - Version 3.2.0

Info: Agent running with pid '29867'.

I have checked it works with 3.2.0-r1. Also nxagent from 3.2.0-r1 works with nx-3.2.0-r2 libs.

Comment 1 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-07-06 20:34:14 UTC
Maybe you should configure the core keyboard... Is there any reason you provided a version number in the Summary (other than perhaps to be generally informative)?
Comment 2 Andrej Filipcic 2008-07-06 23:31:53 UTC
Well, as I said, nxagent from net-misc/nx-3.2.0-r2 does not work. Every previous version did, up to net-misc/nx-3.2.0-r1. The trouble is that every nx session terminates due to nxagent failure when nxclient is trying to open a session window. Of course, -r2 was compiled with gcc-3.4.1 and some newer libs, but I hardly imagine this to be a problem. stracing nxagent shows the error is reported when reading /tmp/.X11-unix/X0. The xorg.conf has everything there.
Comment 3 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-07-07 01:24:43 UTC
Thank you for the info!
Comment 4 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2008-07-07 08:51:53 UTC
Confirmed on the freenx mailing list, thanks for the investigation! I'll look into it
Comment 5 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2008-07-07 16:07:33 UTC
Correction, it looks like gcc-4.3 is the culprit: re-emerging nx-3.2.0-r2 with gcc-4.2 produced a working nxagent
Comment 6 Andrej Filipcic 2008-07-07 20:01:38 UTC
I can confirm the same. With gcc-4.2.4 it works.

Hello, I'm developer of X2Go(www.x2go.org). We using nxlibs for ouer project.

Error is in file programs/Xserver/hw/nxagent/Keyboard.c 

in  function int nxagentKeyboardProc(DeviceIntPtr pDev, int onoff)

438:  #ifdef _XSERVER64
439:        {
440:          KeySym64 *keymap64;
441:          int i, len;
442:          keymap64 = XGetKeyboardMapping(nxagentDisplay,
443:                                       min_keycode,
444:                                       max_keycode - min_keycode + 1,
445:                                       &mapWidth);
446:  
447:          if (keymap == NULL)
448:          {
449:            XFreeModifiermap(modifier_keymap);
450:  
451:            return -1;
452:          }
453:  
454:          len = (max_keycode - min_keycode + 1) * mapWidth;
455:          keymap = (KeySym *)xalloc(len * sizeof(KeySym));
456:          for(i = 0; i < len; ++i)
457:            keymap[i] = keymap64[i];
458:          XFree(keymap64);
459:        }
460:  
461:  #else /* #ifdef _XSERVER64 */




line 447:          if (keymap == NULL) //keymap not initialized yet

at this line schould be if (keymap64 == NULL)

That's code explane why nxagent not work only on 64bit systems and only if assemblied with new gcc

I hope it can help you ;)

Have a nice day and sorry for bad english

Thanks a lot, I've tested it and it's working!

I'll apply the patch soon
Comment 9 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2008-07-08 12:09:37 UTC
Fixed in nx-3.2.0-r3 in CVS, thanks!
