Description Felix Kurth 2003-05-23 05:10:45 UTC
Please make x11-libs/qt (recent version) make use of the "xinerama" use flag.
This is nessesary for prelinking. 
(use xinerama || myconf="${myconf} -no-xinerama")

thanks 

felix

Felix: you shouldn't assign bugs directly to developers, the bug wranglers handle that. In this 
case the assignment was wrong because I'm not very active anymore. Reassigning to the 
team at large. 
 
Everyone: Seemant's been working on adding xinerama use flag support to xfree, and testing 
it with qt/kde as well. I don't know how far he got. Seemant?

with the exception of the kde b0rkage on my system (which I have still been unable to determine the cause of, despite a complete unmerge and emerge, and deletion of personal settings, etc -- dragging a desktop icon crashes kde), but compiling with the disabled "xinerama" in qt and kde works

note that the icons crashin predates the xinerama-disabling

I think it would be advisable for someone with a dual-head set up to test this though.  I had to adjust the eclasses, as danarmak had advised, and the qt ebuild to disable xinerama.

Also note that mkeadle has already added xinerma USE support to the commonbox.eclass, so we only need kde/qt and then I can add it into xfree.

Will test and let you know.

Have added xinerama use variable support to my local qt-3.1.2-r4 and 
kdebase-3.1.2 ebuilds. 
 
Having enabled support in Kcontrol, everything seems to work as expected. I have 
windows placed only on the current screen, resistance at screen borders and 
single screen maximisation. 
Comment 5 Caleb Tennis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-08-27 20:21:10 UTC
The xinerama use flag is now back in the qt ebuildds (3.1.2-r4 and 3.2.1)
