Hi,
after a recent update of my cygwin installation on windows 2000, I have
experienced the same problems with xedit and xcalc, as described previously in
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2002-06/msg00372.html .
Specifically the problems are:
- xedit fails with "Error: Shell widget fileMenu has zero width and/or height"
- xcalc shows incorrect layout
- xfontsel shows incorrect layout and displays "Warning: app-defaults file not
properly installed."
- emacs does not start up but consumes nearly 100% of the cpu time
I have not been using ntsec so far, and the proposed changes to /etc/passwd do
not seem to have an effect on the behaviour of the above applications. I did
not have the xterm problem.
I would be very grateful for any hints to resolve the problem.
Best regards,
Dirk
