61  Description:  Description:
62  TDB  (From http://mail.rdesktop.org/archive/2001/msg00218.html):
63  Status:  
64  Not yet examined.  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. TDB.

113  TDB  (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].
