Hi, I've been trying to run the regression testing tools from the X Test Suite from MIT (the Xclientxr.2.0 set - xtmconvert, xtmexecute & xtmrecord). These tools require an X server which supports the Input Synthesis extension. Now, apparently, MIT's sample servers support the extension (at least optionally, there is an XINPUT flag in the server code...) To make a long story short, there is some device dependent code that needs to be written for a server to compile correctly with the extension. There are hints in mit/extensions/server and in the documentation on how to write the code. Has anybody written such code for any Sun or Digital servers? Would such a person be willing to make said code available? It seems that HP's server supports this extension - at least, the .o file that comes in server/ddx/hp has definitions for the missing procedures - this is no surprise, since the Xclientxr code is copyrighted by both HP and MIT... Please reply by e-mail. I'll post a summary. Thanks, R. Shapiro

In order to be able to use the Client Exerciser tool from the X test suite, I need to add the Input Synthesis Extension to an MIT X11R4 Sun server. Does anybody have any hints about putting the code fragments from the file xtest1.frags in the right places for an MIT X11R4 Sun server ?
