There were some things missed in the 20090226 dev build, so I'm pushing out a small bump to get those things in as well as some other changes for Xrfb.

Once it's finished uploading, the new build will be at http://www.duke.edu/~jd135/downloads/cobalt-base-current-build-20090227.zip

• Keyboard fix for Xrfb is now in.
• XrfbClient now has better error handling and status reporting
• This depends on the server version
• This also needs images in the resources that are currently dummied out to, better ones to come.
  
• The light visibility code in now included.
• Put the kernel extensions for debugging in properly.
• fixed launchers
  

Cheers,

XrfbClient now returns either a RFBSystemWindow or a string, which is the fileName of the error type in .../resources/textures/vnc

If its an error, we show Form as morph, with the corresponding image...

Have made changes in XrfbClient ... to show Images instead of error messages and also the server code can handle slashdotting and maxSessions limit.

The workflow is as follows:
a) XrfbClient makes a XML query to the Server...
b) If XrfbServer is set not to serveSession, it returns 0
c) If Client receives 0, it shows "Server Down due to OverLoad Image
d) If XrfbServer is set to serverSession, it cleans up orphan apps/sessions
e) If XrfbServer has free sessions ( < maxSessions number) it starts app
f) Client shows the app.

The standard error messages are converted in the form of Images, which go into /resources/textures/vnc/   in the local system.
