http://bibl4.oru.se/projects/rdesktop/patch19/patches/backingstore+privatecolormap-for-19-3-9.patch |
25 |
Description: |
26 |
This adds support for 1) Private color maps (useful for 8 bpp mode) |
27 |
and 2) backingstore selection. |
28 |
Status: |
29 |
1) is not needed anymore; rdesktop automatically uses Private color |
30 |
map in 8 bpp mode. 2) is, as far as I understand, also not |
31 |
need. rdesktop automatically uses a software backing store if the |
32 |
Xserver does not provide one. |

http://bibl4.oru.se/projects/rdesktop/patch19/patches/fasttext2+nobackpixmap.patch |
61 |
Description: |
62 |
(From http://mail.rdesktop.org/archive/2001/msg00218.html): |
63 |
|
64 |
1) Added --no-backpixmap option to disable the ugly double drawing in |
65 |
xwin.c (I have a very robust backing storage in my X, so I don't need |
66 |
it ;) |
67 |
|
68 |
2) More optimizations to text draw (previous fast-text patch was |
69 |
included in 192-3-6-2). In text drawing with solid background the |
70 |
glyphs are drawn with stippled fill instead of XCopyPlane (runs faster |
71 |
on my S3Trio64 with XFree 3.3.6, please test it on other |
72 |
configurations to validate this). The WinTach not show any improvement |
73 |
with this change, it seems to use all transparent background text |
74 |
draws, but with a old PC Magazine Winbench (3.1) doing the scroll text |
75 |
test the speed gain is significative. |
76 |
|
77 |
3) My Previous patch to disable backing storage in fullscreen |
78 |
|
79 |
Status: |
80 |
1) is not relevant any more, since rdesktop only uses backing store if |
81 |
the Xserver does not provide backing store. |
82 |
Need to examine if 2) and 3) are still useful. TBD. |

112 |
Description: |
113 |
(From http://mail.rdesktop.org/archive/2001/msg00163.html): |
114 |
|
115 |
rdesktop uses gethostname to figure out the hostname, but gethostname |
116 |
under linux returns an error when the hostname is longer than the |
117 |
buffer. This hack gives gethostname a 64 char buffer and then strips |
118 |
the first 16 chars or upto the first '.' and puts the result in |
119 |
hostname[16]. |
