I did not get a chance to work on X server code.
I will try that tomorrow.
I am comming to idea that something is wrong with GGI graphics libraries :-(
I can start our X-server on top of Sun Microsystem's PC-X.
Which suggests we need to investigate GGI properly. GGI port to Cygwin has
not been released yet. Marcus added most of the work and I did some finishing
touches. This is the first time Linux GGI Graphics library has been ported to
Cygwin. Something seems to be lacking in GGI libraries. I can build the
X-server using XGGI, XFree86 and GGI on my Linux machine and it works. Under
Cygwin, I suspect the Xlib in GGI seems to be hanging after hiting
LibGGI wants X Display 127.0.0.1:0.0.
It supposed to move on and next messages
supposed to be (as on Linux)
LibGGI has X Display on 127.0.0.1:0.0
libGGI X Screen open on 127.0.0.1:0.0
I will write to Marcus and ask his advice which code should be investigated to
find the cause of hang.
