Hi, I am new to this. Just ran lsbappchk and got the following message:<br>
<br>
DT_NEEDED: libXxf86vm.so.1 is used, but not part of the LSB<br>
<br>
My understanding is this library provides the only way to get a fullscreen graphics mode (at least for OpenGL apps).<br>
<br>
On the WheresMyLibrary page's X11 Extension Libraries - 'B' list it shows: libXxf86vm - ??: not in spec<br>
<br>
I wonder if there is much interest given that fullscreen is important for apps like games, simulators, and screensavers?<br>
<br>
The Database Navigator shows:<br>
<br>
There are 17 applications registered in the database that use interfaces from this library (list...).<br>
There are 23 applications registered in the database that require this library (list...).<br>
<br>
The library is absent in 1 distribution.<br>
<br>
Other distributions provide this library. (Around 40).<br>
<br>
Does this mean these apps should use a static version of the library? What are the most likely things that could break my apps?<br>

"libXxf86vm provides an interface to the XFree86-VidModeExtension extension, which allows client applications to get and set video mode timings in extensive detail. It is used by the xvidtune program in particular."<br>
<br>
This library will be nuked soon due randr rework (1.3).<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
