  • scfg, echocfg, uedit etc blank screen over X

    Not sure when this first started happening, but running scfg, echocfg and uedit as a remote X app is giving just a black screen.When running through strace it seems to loop around<code>clock_nanosleep(CLOCK_REALTIME, 0, {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=1000000}, 0x7ffdc796c770) = 0select(6, [5], NULL, NULL, {tv_sec=0, tv_usec=0}) = 0 (Timeout)</code>Though not sure if that's any use.It starts fine with scfg -iD -iC etc.

    I don't have a blank screen but garbage when resizing:![imagen](/uploads/9f1cedda953e35d7f1d2651a82c8d43c/imagen.png)I reported similar behavior to syncterm (but this was fixed by @Deuce ):https://sourceforge.net/p/syncterm/tickets/111/

    scfg -ix is working for me on ChromeOS at least.

    Tried on a different system with Ubuntu 22.10 Same issue. Dan_C reports he's using Slackware, same issue. Let's get this fixed please. It's been over 2 weeks now.

    No issues with blank screens with Ubuntu 20.04.06 running the apps on MacOS Ventura with XQuartz 2.8.5. Running 3.20 compiled from the master branch (as of commit 86825b66 from 4 days ago).I can however replicate the resizing issue that @Ragnarok pointed out but I'd never actually noticed it before now. ![Screenshot_2023-07-14_at_10.19.58_pm](/uploads/e7d17f0b7a974d04ca43354a5c41989d/Screenshot_2023-07-14_at_10.19.58_pm.png)

    At DM's suggestion, I used git bisect to determine the bad commit.bbs@bbs:~/sbbs-test/repo$ git bisect bad34747a84b21b9eda7eb7b945a52ad3fa45475ae3 is the first bad commitcommit 34747a84b21b9eda7eb7b945a52ad3fa45475ae3Author: Deucе <shurd@sasktel.net>Date: Mon Jun 5 13:04:24 2023 -0400 Implement basic frameskipping in bitmap driverLet's hope this helps more than the bt I provided 3 weeks ago.
