VistaCursors are killing my LinuxVM (beCursor primitive failing)
I moved a windows image with VistaCursors to Linux and the beCursor primitive failed, leading to a white screen opening. Maybe this is because the cursors are bigger than the 16x16 form. I saw discussions of this being fixed in Squeak. Are we having this issue in Pharo? Phil
Yes we have this issue: 12960 <https://pharo.fogbugz.com/default.asp?12960> Primitive 101 (Cursor beCursor) fails on Ubuntu we just need someone who can edit the pharo vm build config. 2014-03-28 18:52 GMT+01:00 phil@highoctane.be <phil@highoctane.be>:

"We just need to enable xrender support in the vm build config" i haven't seen anything related to 'xrender support' in configs, despite i was one of those who made those configs originally.. :) can you elaborate, what exactly you talking about?

Thats the problem, no -DHAVE_LIBXRENDER and no -lXrender (don't know exaclty how this gets enabled, some cmake rules?) Maybe I choosed the wrong words: Change the config, so that xrender support gets enabled. squnixX11.c: static sqInt display_ioSetCursorARGB(sqInt cursorBitsIndex, sqInt extentX, sqInt extentY, sqInt offsetX, sqInt offsetY) { #if defined(HAVE_LIBXRENDER) && (RENDER_MAJOR > 0 || RENDER_MINOR >= 5) ... return 1; #else return 0; #endif } Nicolai
ok, thanks. https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/13155/Enable-XRender-support-for-Linux-VMs On 29 March 2014 20:45, Nicolai Hess <nicolaihess@web.de> wrote:
