23 astrand 124 URL:
24     http://bibl4.oru.se/projects/rdesktop/patch19/patches/backingstore+privatecolormap-for-19-3-9.patch
25     Description:
26 astrand 129 This adds support for 1) Private color maps (useful for 8 bpp mode)
27     and 2) backingstore selection.
28 astrand 124 Status:
29 astrand 129 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.

54 astrand 132 Seems to keep track of the remote modifier status.

59 astrand 124 URL:
60     http://bibl4.oru.se/projects/rdesktop/patch19/patches/fasttext2+nobackpixmap.patch
61     Description:
62 astrand 133 (From http://mail.rdesktop.org/archive/2001/msg00218.html):
63    
64 astrand 134 1) Added --no-backpixmap option to disable the ugly double drawing in
65 astrand 133 xwin.c (I have a very robust backing storage in my X, so I don't need
66     it ;)
67    
68 astrand 134 2) More optimizations to text draw (previous fast-text patch was
69 astrand 133 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 astrand 134 3) My Previous patch to disable backing storage in fullscreen
78 astrand 133
79 astrand 124 Status:
80 astrand 134 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. TDB.

86     http://bibl4.oru.se/projects/rdesktop/patch19/patches/francisco_fix_patblt.html
87     Description:
88 astrand 135 The colors in patterns drawn with "pattern blt" order was inverted (fg
89     & bg). (See the background of the yellow help banners)

110 astrand 124 URL:
111     http://bibl4.oru.se/projects/rdesktop/patch19/patches/hostname-patch
112     Description:
113 astrand 138 (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].
120
