Just upgraded X.Org X Server from 1.5.3 to 1.6.3.901 and all is not |
| 2 |
well. |

First problem noticed is that copy and paste in gnumeric isn't |
| 5 |
working. I used to be able to use the arrow keys to navigate, ctrl-c |
| 6 |
to copy and ctrl-v to paste. The paste operation isn't presently |
| 7 |
working. I rebuilt gnumeric, but it hasn't helped. |

'cause of the gnumeric problem, I restarted X. It worked -- sort of. |

My screen resolution has dropped from 1280x1024 to 1024x768, which is |
| 12 |
not sufficient. I'm using a minimal xorg.conf -- no video and no |
| 13 |
screen details. My ASUS mobo has ATI Radeon X1200 support on it -- |
| 14 |
rather low end but totally adequate for my needs. |

A few weeks ago I encountered a similar resolution problem after |
| 17 |
restarting X. That was solved after discovering I had both |
| 18 |
x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati and x11-drivers/ati-drivers installed. I |
| 19 |
removed ati-drivers and all was good (until this upgrade). |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
xrandr presently offers 1024x768 as maximum, which is the same as |
| 22 |
Xorg.0.log indicates. |

I have thoughts of downgrading to 1.5.3. Any better suggestions? |

FWIW, I've attached the Xorg.0.log files for both 1.5.3 and 1.6.3 |
