[gentoo-user] Problem with X apps from remote PC

[Matthias Fechner]

Hi,

I have here Xorg running. My system is a AMD64, software is
up-to-date. X is compiled with xinerama tag.

Now if I start emacs or a xterm etc on my FreeBSD pc I can only see
the decoration of the window but nothing is displayed in it.

As window manager I use XFCE4.

Everything worked fine before an update in the last 2-6 weeks but I
have no idea who to solve that problem now.

Is it possible that with the new modular XOrg a package is missing?

Thx a lot for help,
Matthias

i found now, why: it is the use-flag or flag in the xorg.conf: xinerama

If I disable the, everything works fine, but with xinerama activated
it will not work.

Does anybody knows a work-around for this?

Thx
Matthias
