Re: Emacs-GTK hangs with dialog boxes

For completeness, I want to flag that my GTK build of Emacs has the same problem described here: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-09/msg00051.html.

Practically, after starting Emacs,

$ G_SLICE=always-malloc emacs -q &

its first three icons on tool-bar (new file, read existing file, read directory) do not work. Emacs hangs for 20-30 seconds, and at prompt it writes:

$ Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-graziosi/fam-
(emacs:3556): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: FAMOpen failed, FAMErrno=3

Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-graziosi/fam-
(emacs:3556): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: FAMOpen failed, FAMErrno=3

(emacs:3556): Gtk-WARNING **: Impossibile trovare il tipo di monitor predefinito per directory locali

(emacs:3556): Gtk-WARNING **: Impossibile trovare il tipo di monitor predefinito per directory locali


I think that the problem happens after a recent (one or two weeks) upgrading of gtk | glib | GNOME libraries, when Emacs showed new icons.

Using the current snapshot of cygwin1.dll (20090924, only dll) seems to solve *partially* the above problem: now it looks that the first three icons are working, but when I try to close Emacs, it hangs for some time. This happens only if I use those icons.


Using 'ps' while Emacs is hanging, does not show the Emacs process any more but this
