Resulting in some files being unable to be deleted, how hard you might be trying. (I've tried very hard.) I finally came up with a way to work around; 1. Browse* to the file that is 'locked' or cannot be deleted. (after trying to delete the Cygwin files and getting the "cannot delete"-errors, there will only be the locked files left, so you just have to browse a bit.) 2. Right-Click -> Properties -> Security Here you notice you're locked out, and all options are greyed out, Your previous account that had admin rights to/owned the file is indicated as "not found". 3. Click advanced -> "Owner"-tab, and select the current owner. Hit "apply" then "Ok". Close out the underlaying menu ("Host Properties" / Security Tab) by clicking ok to reload the changed settings. 4. Rightclick the file(s) again -> Properties -> Security. You'll notice you now can change the access rights as you desire; Set your account to full control and delete the file(s) and hit "ok", then delete the files as you desire. *Trying to change permissions for the upmost parent folder in the way described above didn't work as desired.

As soon as I hit Enter, the new shell line that appears is trashed, but the previous line now displays properly. I've tried -swcursor & -fn with various fonts, but no difference. I've tried XWin vanilla, -rootless, and even -mwextwm with xwinwm, and all of these work fine; its only multiwindow this happens with.

Its a problem caused by WindowBlinds. Tony. ........... Hello, OS: WinXP, Service Pack 1 Cygwin: 1.5.9-1 Cygwin-X11-base: 6.7.0.0-8 Cygwin-X11-bin: 6.7.0.0-4 readline: 4.3-5 I'm having a stange problem with xterm that only manifests itself when XWin is running in multiwindow mode. When I launch an either an xterm or rxvt, the line of the terminal the cursor is on is only half vertically displayed - only the top half of the text appears. Also, any text I enter appears garbled. As soon as I hit Enter, the new shell line that appears is trashed, but the previous line now displays properly. I've tried -swcursor & -fn with various fonts, but no difference. I've tried XWin vanilla, -rootless, and even -mwextwm with xwinwm, and all of these work fine; its only multiwindow this happens with. I've tried setting and unsetting my LANG and LC_ALL settings; nothing. Anyone else come across this? Any ideas? Thanks, Tony. ____________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

"OK," said the sheriff, "What is 1+1?" The redneck thought for a minute, and finally said, "11."The sheriff asked, "What two days of the week start with the letter T?" The redneck said, "That's easy, Today and Tomorrow." The sheriff said, "Now the last question, who killed Abraham Lincoln?" The redneck thought really hard, and at last said, "I don't know." The sheriff smiled and said, "Well, why don't you go home and work on that." So the redneck went home and his wife asked him how it went. The redneck replied, "Great! He already put me on a murder case!" A couple had been married for 25 years and were celebrating their 60th birthdays, which fell on the same day. During the celebration a fairy appeared and said that because they had been such a loving couple for all 25 years, she would give them one wish each. The wife wanted to travel around the world. The fairy waved her hand, and Boom! She had the tickets in her hand. Next, it was the husband's turn. He paused for a moment, then said shyly, "Well, I'd like to have a woman 30 years younger than me." The fairy picked up her wand, and Boom! He was ninety. horinouc7joukouke03kubunden,masuo jitsumuk.

After a while, I end up w/ dozens of tcsh and bash processes hanging around. What am I doing wrong in the invocation of the terminal? Here is my little BAT file that I am using to invoke shells: @echo off rem This program lunches the shell specified as the first argument in rem a rxvt terminal. set DEFAULT_SHELL=bash set PATH=C:\cygwin\bin;C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin;%PATH%;. set SHELL=%1 set DISPLAY=-display 127.0.0.01:0.0 set GEOMETRY=-g 140x50 set BG=-bg black set FG=-fg white set ARGS=%DISPLAY% %GEOMETRY% -sr %BG% %FG% if "%1" NEQ "" goto :READY set SHELL=%DEFAULT_SHELL% :READY C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\run.exe rxvt %ARGS% -e %SHELL Invoking the shell as a login shell doesn't seem to fix this either. If I close the shell w/ C-d or by typing exit, both it and rxvt will close completely. This is fine because I know to do it, but others at school who will be using this script wont necessarily know to exit the program like this and I don't want to end up w/ a bunch of runways on our boxes. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. TIA. -- Regards, Travis Spencer _________________________________________________________________ Is your PC infected?

The problem is the following: About 20% of the times that "XWin -multiwindow" is started the X-window pointer is not displayed, i.e. when the pointer enters an X-window it becomes invisible. The mouse motions are nevertheless properly recorded, so that, by guessing the position of the pointer, one may click buttons and so on. When the pointer leaves the X-windows and enters the Windows regions the pointer becomes visible again. The wrong or right behavior of the X server is mantained from the start of XWin to its end. I have not seen a change of behavior. The only occasion in which the X pointer is visible when the XWin has the wrong behavior is when the pointer is located in a region where a client window (e.g. xterm) is started; initially the pointer is visible, but as soon as the mouse is moved the pointer disappears. The appearence of the wrong behavior is quite random. I have not found correlations with anything. The XWin.log files are identical in both cases. I hope that this information could be useful.

Cause: XWin becomes its own next window in the clipboard chain after trying to ensure that it is still in the clipboard chain. Fix: Don't allow s_hwndNextViewer to get set to hwnd.

Note that I had the appropriate UK layout before without having to do anything at all (I did skip a few updates so unfortunately can't tell you from when this happened). So, I tried to read the FAQ and did the following: I modified startxwin.bat to do: XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -emulate3buttons -xkblayout uk but that didn't help. Then I tried the testing procedure given on the web page: setxkbmap de -model pc105 but I get the following: Couldn't interpret _XKB_RULES_NAMES property Use defaults: rules - 'xorg' model - 'pc101' layout - 'us' Couldn't find rules file (xorg) Potentially related is that I don't seem to have /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb, but only /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb.old-1 What can I do?

When I went back in front of the machine I found that the X server window had shrunk to roughly the size of the remote desktop screen, but had not grown back again when I logged in locally. The maximize button on the window is greyed out and I can't resize the window using its borders, so there seems to be no way to restore the original size. The log (shown below) indicates that the X server did notice the change of screen size, but for whatever reason didn't resize its window. I think it is a bug that the window didn't get restored to its original size, but I'd also like to request some kind of manual resizing option (perhaps ungreying the maximize button) so the server can be fixed if the problem happens again.

I did that, restarted the X server, and now it recognises my keyboard without having to explicitly specify a layout. Great! thanks a lot. Kris PS: Note that I still cannot do " setxkbmap uk" as I get: Error loading new keyboard description I tried to reinstall all of the xorg packages I had installed, but the behaviour remains the same. I then checked /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst, and it indeed doesn't have a uk layout, but it does have a gb one! So, I really should have been using "gb", which works fine.

No, you are not supposed to be using -mwextwm nor -multiwindow. Both of these parameters are intended to be used with a Windows-based window manager; -multiwindow starts this window manager automatically while -mwextwm relies on you to manually launch "xwinwm" (available in the xwinwm package for Cygwin) and since you are probably not launching xwinwm you are not having problems with trying to run two window managers in that case. You need to be using either -rootless or -nodecoration (try each and decide which you like). You may also be having a little trouble if you are using Cygwin's OpenSSH with "ssh -X", in that case you need to switch to "ssh -Y".

Rob -------------------------------------------------------------- Remote Desktop, MultiWindow & Cursors From: "Wilks, Dan" To: cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com Date: Wed, 28 Apr 2004 13:22:36 -0600 Subject: Remote Desktop, MultiWindow & Cursors Reply-to: cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com Looks like the newer versions of XWin are having cursor problems when coming out of remote desktop (XP Pro). After a remote desktop session the cursor completely disappears in the X window client area. Here's what I'm seeing: - Run a cygwin bash shell - XWin -multiwindow -clipboard - Run xterm on a Linux box w/ PuTTY tunneling X. - Move the cursor around the xterm. Nice I-Beam. - Go to another machine, remote desktop in. - xterm is still active app but cursor is now outside the xterm window over the windows desktop but with X's X cursor. - Move cursor around. It remains the X cursor wherever you move it. Verify. - Activate a Windows app (IE) and then back to xterm. Cursor returns to I-Beam and proper behavior. - Shut down remote desktop. Return to tty. - Now when the mouse moves over any X window it completely disappears. Also, at this point, copying anything will completely crash XWin. I'm in the process of looking into it. My debug build of current sources doesn't exhibit this behavior. I'll try a non-debug build next. Hey, is there a safe, automated, way to do a full, clean build of just Xserver?

The problem appears quite randomly, I have to do a few restarts of the X server to get it right. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo!

The listening ports by XWin seems to increment by 4 every time, cycles up to 5000 then wrap back to 3000. If the listening port by XWin happens to be a port that already have a listening server, then that listening server is removed. For example, if I currently have an SSH connection that listens on port 3008. Then XWin starts a listen on port 3000; at the next second, it listen on 3004; and at the next second, it listens on port 3008, causing a conflict and my SSH connection disappear.

I think the small fix got lost. At least I couldn't find it in the clipboard window proc. No worries it gave me time to look into the problem some more. This patch should solve XWin crashing (silently quitting) while copying or pasting after using another Windows application which utilizes the clipboard chain. Remote desktop is one such application. If further crashes occur using XWin -logverbose 3 will be able to generate hopefully useful information from the clipboard. ChangeLog: * winclipboard.h: Add extern prototypes for winDebug, winErrorFVerb copied from winmsg.h. * winclipboardinit.c (winFixClipboardChain): Post rather than send the reinit message to the clipboard window. Sending the message caused, or possibly just exacerbated an existing, race condition that would cause the X server to hang when coming back from a remote desktop session. * winclipboardwndproc.c (winProcessXEventsTimeout): switch to new logging api's. (winClipboardWindowProc): switch to new logging api's. Add some additional debug logging. Make best effort to prevent our window appearing twice in the clipboard chain. Also detect loops when they occur and try to behave in a reasonable way.

Are these packages from the Xfree86 site? The Cygwin/X project never release XFree86 4.4.

Getting Truetype fonts to work with FreeType was a doddle; I made a ~/.fonts dir, symlinked /mnt/windows/fonts/*.ttf in there, ran fc-cache, and then was able to run xterm -fa "fontname" where 'fontname' was any entry from the output of fc-list. With some setting up of LANG, LC_ALL, etc, I was even able to get a pretty good coverage of the UTF-8 demos and tests (eg: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/examples/UTF-8-demo.txt ). However, I failed to get Windows Bitmap Fonts ( .fon files ) working in the same way. As I understand it, FreeType 2 should support these ok; I symlinked /mnt/win.../*.fon into my ~/.fonts dir, ran fc-cache, tried e.g xterm -fa "Small Fonts", but everything appeared as white-on-white. I tried setting the foreground color, background color, etc, but nothing ever appears except the cursor. Anyone else seen this? I'm not currently able to try this under on another setup, so could easily be my screw up. Getting Truetype fonts to work with ttmkfdir also worked well (it can be downloaded from http://fundin.f2g.net/download.html - follow the instructions in the README ), and I was able to run eg xterm -fn "-microsoft-comic sans ms-heavy-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1" Not every entry generated by xlsfonts was usable - fonts with a registry value of "ascii" for instance couldn't be found when starting xterm, though this is quite possibly to do with some of my other settings. Finally, I was also fairly successful in converting .fon fonts into bdf fonts using the fnt2bdf utility supplied with Wine. I downloaded the latest Wine src ( from http://www.winehq.com ), ran configure, make dep and make, which eventually bombed out, but not before the fnt2bdf utility in the tools directory had been built. Using this I was able to convert all of my .fon fonts into bdf fonts, popped these in a directory and xset +fp'ed it. Running fontsel showed up all of these fonts; however selecting certain ones then caused xfontsel to crash. As always, YMMV, but I hope someone finds this useful.

Yes - all listed, eg: Small Fonts:style=Regular and it doesn't use the default font that would appear when the -fa "fontname" is a fontname that doesn't appear in the list (at least I assume it doesn't - I picked "Small Fonts" as my example as with a fixed geometry setting in my .Xdefaults, the xterm is smaller than with a larger font). Also, selecting from the xterm and pasting elsewhere works fine: antony@rothko (~) % pwd /home/antony antony@rothko (~) % Its just the colo(u)r thats wrong - my .Xdefaults has: xterm*Background: black xterm*Foreground: DarkSeaGreen xterm*cursorColor: DarkSeaGreen but the xterm appears black-on-black with a DarkSeaGreen cursor. Removing my .Xdefaults file gives white-on-white with a black cursor. I've also tried removing my .bashrc in case it was a problem with prompt colorisation or something like that; exactly the same problem. Interestingly, mlterm shows the same phenomenon - works fine in with truetype fonts, black-on-black with .fon fonts. This is using Cygwin/X updated this morning to latest versions of everything.

The above is the only part of your message that belongs on the main Cygwin list (see ). To be able to use Ctrl-C (and Ctrl-Space, and a couple of other commands) correctly in a cmd window, add "tty" to $CYGWIN before launching the shell (see ). The rest of this message belongs on the cygwin-xfree list.

A WAG: you mentioned ssh in the subject, but it's never come up. Do you have nedit problems when connecting via ssh? Did you read the FAQ: ?

I can reproduce this every time: - select some text in xemacs - try to paste it into a dialogue box in a Windows application (an inhouse app which is built with MFC and Visual Studio .NET) The X server hangs; if you expose the X server window it appears all white and clicking in the window changes the title to 'Cygwin/X - 0:0 - Not Responding'. Here are a couple of XWin.log files showing the problem. The first is when the hang happened at the end of a long session (I hadn't tried to paste into the Windows app before then), the second is from a deliberate attempt to trigger the problem soon after starting the server.

If I just move the pointer over the X server window and it isn't focused then the pointer changes into a correct X pointer for the application running in the X server (for example it changes into an up-down arrow when hovering over the modeline in xemacs). But as soon as I click in the X server window to give it focus, the mouse pointer disappears and remains disappeared as long as the pointer location is above the X server window, and that window is focused. I can't reproduce this every time but I have seen it on a few occasions.

When running Cygwin/X with the -clipboard option, I can cut and paste between X apps, and from X to Windows apps. As long as X is running, I am not able to cut or copy from Windows apps. For example, if I type "foo" in X and copy it to the clipboard, whenever I paste in X or in Windows I get "foo". If I then type "bar" in Windows, select it, and hit CTRL-C or choose "Copy" from an Edit menu via mouse, whenever I paste in X or in Windows I get "foo" rather than "bar". When I shut X down I regain the ability to cut/copy in Windows. When I use xwinclip instead of the -clipboard option, I am able to transfer data into and out of the clipboard in X and Windows with no problems. I am not using both xwinclip and -clipboard simultaneously. I was not able to find any mention of this particular clipboard problem on Google or in the cygwin-xfree archives. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Here is a second XWin.log showing the problem. I tried changing the display size from control panel back and forth a few times, but the X server window refused to grow back to its former size. Maybe there could be some logging saying 'I noticed a change in Windows display size and I am resizing the X window accordingly' or 'I noticed a change in Windows display size but will not change the X window size'. Then one could see what is the intended behaviour.

Unfortunately I don't understand enough of the motive of the current code in order to suggest a fix. It appears that there is some sort of misunderstanding between wincursor.c and the various window procs. One of the first acts that wincursor.c does is to do a ShowCursor(TRUE) but not set the global variable g_fCursor. The effect is that the cursor is now locked on. The window procs all attempt to hide the hardware cursor while it is in the client area by calling ShowCursor(FALSE) when the mouse enters the client area and then ShowCursor(TRUE) when it leaves, or when the window is deactivated or various other events. But it does this under the control of the afore mentioned g_fCursor variable. I assume that this is to deal with the refcounted nature of the ShowCursor call. Now, when remote desktop comes in, it just resets the global ShowCursor refcount. Both on the remote side and when control is restored to the owning display. This causes the window proc's desire for cursor control to be honored, hiding the cursor when it comes into the client are and then showing the cursor again when it leaves. What's surprising is that a cursor is visible while in the remote desktop, not always the right cursor, but there is one. Only when returning to the main display does the cursor disappear for good. So, what's the right fix? I don't know. I have a guess. If XWin is now really 100% hardware cursor based then we don't need to do any of this cursor wrangling. My guess is that we could even remove all the MouseTrackEvent stuff as well since that only appears to matter to hiding and showing the cursor over the client area. I've given it a whirl and it appears to work ok. My cursor is always visible and the proper shape. Also a surprise is that the cursor is better behaved while running on the remote desktop. It still has problems but it's much better than it was. Unfortunately I put very little strain on X. I run xterm, emacs, and occasionally IntelliJ. I always run XWin directly in multiwindow mode, no startx or .rc file mumbo jumbo here. So I don't feel confident enough to really suggest a real patch, only a course of investigation to those who might have a bit more knowledge or bravery that I.

We moved to X.org because it was easier for Cygwin/X developers to get cvs access there. XFree only allowed cvs access for a few people from the core team. We had to ask them to include the changes into their cvs. As a result the XFree cvs was always a few weeks up to some months behind the Cygwin/X development. The cygwin part from XFree may now be about 7 or 8 months old. Many improvements (eg for multiwindow mode or clipboard support) have not been included into the XFree cvs. > My question is Xfree going to be abandoned in favor of Xorg .

Wait until the next version. Some Windows apps, Remote Desktop for one really mess up the Windows clipboard chain. You can see this using the old clipbrd.exe tool as well.

The application I have been specifically attempting to do so with is Eclipse (motif for HP-UX). Just about every other application that I have run has been able to take keyboard and mouse input from the Windows machine with no problems. However, when I run Eclipse, the Java based GUI will launch after a short time, however it will be a dead screen with no ability to click, move focus or execute any commands. In this attempt, I also tried to display a full Xwindows (CDE on HP-UX 11.0) session. This did work once I was able to sort out the X font server issue I encountered initially. I was able to control the window when displaying the full X session. My boss was able to get it to work completely the way we wanted with another product, however that was a demo of software that is far to expensive for us to purchase. This is what I tried to do concerning displaying only the application remotely to my Windows desktop from the UNIX machine: I started Cygwin Typed "startx" and hit return in the Xterm I typed "xhost +" in the Xterm I typed "xset +fp tcp/:7100 (the port the font server is listening on) in the Xterm I opened an ssh session by typing "ssh -l and then entered the password when prompted When logged in to the remote server I cd'd into the directory for eclipse and executed my script to launch it which consists of the path to the eclipse executable and these arguments: /eclipse -vm /opt/java1.4/bin/java -vmargs -XdoCloseWithReadPending This would bring up the splash and the application would load, but as stated above, not open. I could open other X applications and have no such issues. Any assistance would be greatly helpful and valued.

Equally, I might point out that (until the recent bulk import), much of cygwin's build tree outside the small area of the Xwin server was several months old. (It's hard to compare exactly without some work, since the people who did the import did it carelessly, losing most of the identifiers - doesn't inspire much confidence in their ability). -- Thomas E.

This happens in local xterms as well. It might have happened after doing some "ssh -X somewhere_else" stuff, but I wouldn't call that remote desktop (but maybe you would). Note that I almost never reboot my laptop but hibernate it and drag it around. Don't know if this would upset the X server. I have had other occasional weird things such as the X server refusing connection from everything (saying something along the lines of "refusing connection from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:0" which was my current IP number). I thought this might have happened because my IP number changed from when I started the server, but I haven't been able to reproduce this. Thanks for all the effort!

Running XWin -multiwindow, I open an xterm and move it right to the bottom of the screen. I open another window (e.g. Explorer) and move it over the xterm, completely covering it, and then away again. There is a white line left, covering the bottom of the xterm, exactly as thick as the Windows Taskbar. Typing in the xterm doesn't remove this line, nor does using the scrollbar. Moving the xterm a few pixels up redisplays only those pixels that have now appeared above where the line was. The only was to get the entire xterm back again is to move the entire window above the height of the line. Does multiwindow mode make some assumptions about where the Windows Taskbar is placed?

I used to be able to start multiple windows in a 800 by 600 screen with the blackbox window manager. Now when I try that using the -scrollbars -clipboard -screen 0 800 600 no window appears although when I kill X it thinks there are 2 clients connected?! I removed "run" from in front of Xwin in the batch file and that works, well, every other time. I start startxwin.bat and it pops up the X window but then doesn't start the window manager or xterm. If I kill X and restart, then it works (although it crashes at random times - it used to never crash). Rootless and multiwindow work, although I like having all my X stuff in its own window and using rootless and multiwindow I don't have the benefits of blackbox (i.e. opening a new xterm session by right-clicking).

I also have the same problem as described below. What I did to resolve the problem is to replace the "run" keyword with "start". "run" was a cygwin command (run.exe), while "start" is Windows shell (cmd.exe) intrinsic command. The other complaint is this: Xwin often closes by itself with NO warning, nothing written in /tmp/XWin.log.

No core dump was found in $HOME directory or /tmp. Note: I use WindowMaker as the window manager. Wirawan OOT: Are you sure that the %CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp\.X11-unix subdir is properly created? This issue is a disgression from the discussion topic, but let me mention it. It may worth looking into to fix the current implementation of my-startxwin.bat. This directory is actually a problem, if someone cares. In my case, the cygwin "partition" lives on an NTFS filesystem, and I use ntsec (NT Security) to provide the "real" unix file permissions. This poses a problem. The X server needs /tmp/.X11-unix subdir, which may or may not be accessible by any user starting the session. This may in turn fails the whole X session. Why? Since the X session is started by an ordinary _user_ (and not by ROOT as in Linux). The subdir /tmp/.X11-unix, if created by a user, say, XYZ, will not be erasable by another user starting X session (later) on the same machine. Suppose there are 2 users on that machine that can start X sessions (of course not concurrently, I would assume, but that can also happen on an XP box). For simplicity let me assume that they are 2 different users that would start X at different times, and the sessions do not overlap. The first user started it, and my-startxwin.bat creates /tmp/.X11-unix (OWNED by the first user). Now this session is properly terminated. Then the other user tried to start with my-startxwin.bat, but it wouldn't be able to, as /tmp/.X11-unix has been there and created by someone else. NTFS permission is so strict that even administrators can't always able to erase that subdir! Let me outline my solution: I had to customize the script, by replacing %CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp to another directory which is accessible only to me. In this case, I create C:\cygwin\tmp\wirawan, and MOUNT that subdir as /tmp *for me only*: wirawan@wp ~ $ mount -u -b 'C:\cygwin\tmp\wirawan' /tmp Then all references to %CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp are replaced with C:\cygwin\tmp\wirawan. This can pose another trickery, but it works for me. My X session would generate .X11-unix subdir in *my* /tmp, not in global tmp (C:\cygwin\tmp).

Yea, that's what I was wondering. You might consider removing the ShowCursor from wincursor.c altogether. I don't think it hurts but it's not really necessary as long as other bits of the system aren't going to go hiding it. Oh, and you might want to update the bit in the docs to include the differences between hardware and software cursor handling. >Can you please test it with the Terminal Service? The cursor works fine. There are a few other miscellaneous problems in multiwindow mode though. Window activation doesn't appear to affect the X window stacking order, window titles are all "Cygwin/X X." I hope those aren't unexpected. Uh, never mind, seems to be an artifact of Spy++ running when starting XWin. Uggh. And while on the subject of cursors, have there been any discussions about xeyes support in multiwindow mode and the problems caused because X clients don't realize that they're not visible? Try this: run emacs in (default) x-mode. Minimize all other windows besides emacs. Take note of where any of the icon bar buttons are. Minimize the emacs window. Hover the mouse over where one of the buttons was. Up pops the emacs tooltip/balloon help window. You get the same behavior if it was another windows app obscuring the emacs window. I was thinking about a -noxeyes flag that just turned off the WIN_POLLING_MOUSE_TIMER_ID timer, or maybe just not calling miPointerAbsoluteCursor when the cursor is over an non-X window. Suboptimal but less annoying.

We start moving from Michigan to California tomorrow and I will be losing my internet and computer access starting in about three hours. We will have internet access next week but it is unlikely that my computer will arrive for at least a week, so I will be unable to check email or perform any actions for the project for at least a week. I am starting my new job on May 24th and we are having a baby in July. As you can imagine, this means that I will be pretty busy. I am investigating handing the project over to Alexander Gottwald; this transition would likely occur about four weeks from now if it will occur at all. I just want to prep everyone for the idea that I might be moving on so that it does not come as a surprise if I do move on. That is it for now. I will probably be unsubscribed from the mailing list for the next week so that my mailbox does not overflow.

I am starting up the X server by running the startxwin.bat file. I am taking the default of "run XWin -multiwindow -clipboard ." I am using X11Forwarding so that my DISPLAY variable is set when I ssh to a server. When I run xterm on the box that I ssh to, the xterm does display back. However, I can't seem to be able to type anything inside the xterm. No characters ever show up inside the xterm. I can use cntrl-d to close the window. Can you suggest a way for me to correct this? I have experimented with the -fullscreen mode with the same results. Something else I am having problems with is when I run the Oracle Universal Installer on a remote system; my cursor basically disappears when my mouse has the focus on the oui. I am able click buttons, but I can't ever see where my cursor is. I currently have Hummingbird installed and it is working fine for displaying X back, but I would really prefer to use Cygwin. I do not have Hummingbird and Cygwin running at the same time. If anyone can help me with my issues, I would greatly appreciate it.

In complement to this problem, I've tried some tests : 1/ I've checked out the cvs tree and compiled a debug version. I've used it but the behaviour was the same and I didn't manage to find how to track the culpid, due to the integration into KDE-Cygwin. I think the problem is strongly related to KDE clipboard management, so I also send this mail to the KDE-cygwin mailing list. 2/ As ever, I've regulary updated my cygwin installation and retried. Until 6.7.0.0-8, there was no change (unless cursor desappearing, temporarily solved with -swcursor). But with 6.7.0.0-9, ther is some evolution : Now, the clipboard works fine as long as I stay into X11 applications, but as soon as I try to use it into Windows applications, XWin freeze, with task manager showing 100% of cpu consumption. The only solution is to kill it manually. How could I help you tracking more efficiently this problem, or even how could I solve it ? Thanks.

That sounds like permissions: signals don't generally propagate across su and other things that change the ownership of the terminal. You can usually work around those by running resize (which uses escape sequences to find the actual size of the xterm, and does the equivalent of an stty to update your local terminal-size values). > sorry! > > Kris > > > > > > > I run a remote xterm via > > > > > > ssh -Y mydebianlinuxsystem xterm > > > > > this works perfectly fine, except when I resize the window (in > > particular: > > > make it wider).

Message-ID: Hi folks, Since I moved from the XFree86 Xwin to the Xorg Xwin I have had two problems that are proving rather irritating. I am using the -9 server at the moment. The first is that, with the old XFree86 I had a DOS batch script that would run "Xwin -query" to connect to the remote host and then quit. Since Xwin started writing its log output to the DOS console I can't get the DOS window to go away. How can I get back to the old behaviour? The second is a bug has resurfaced that was fixed in XFree86/Xwin ages ago: quite frequently I find that a key is autorepeating in the X session when it shouldn't, and wouldn't in a normal Win app. Hope you can help, Ruth From holger.krull@gmx.de Mon May 17 08:21:00 2004 From: holger.krull@gmx.de (Holger Krull) Date: Mon, 17 May 2004 08:21:00 -0000 Subject: Problems using Xorg server...

'resize' works around the problem on the local (i.e. cygwin) terminal, but not for an xterm on my debian system. indeed, they're very different implementations. on cygwin, it sets TERMCAP, while on debian it sets COLUMNS and ROWS environment variables. Happily, pasting the TERMCAP from the cygwin xterm to the debian xterm gets things properly there as well.

That's puzzling: xterm tries to set $TERMCAP (if it is linked with a termcap library) since termcap-based applications typically do not pay any attention to other ways of getting the screen size. But termcap on Linux isn't (especially Debian) used much. If you have an application that uses termcap, it's probably worth taking the time to compile 'resize' linked with the termcap library as well. (xterm's configure script tries to find a termcap library in preference to terminfo for this reason). -- Thomas E.

You need to use DestroyIcon() if the HANDLE is a from LoadIcon, and just plain DestroyObject() if the HANDLE is from LoadImage or you get a GDI leak.

Resource Release function Bitmap DeleteObject Cursor DestroyCursor Icon DestroyIcon All calls to LoadImage use the IMAGE_ICON type. I know that we can not call DestroyIcon() on an handle created by LoadIcon() since windows takes care of them and they are shared. That's why i mentioned CopyIcon(). This will create a copy that is not managed by windows and can be safely destroyed. DeleteObject is never called on an icon handle in out code. Only DestroyIcon is. > Lev Bishop was talking about doing some changes to do a LoadImage() for both > large and small icon sizes, but I don't think anything became of it... Using LoadImage results in broken images now. I'd like to revert to LoadIcon but in a safe way. bye ago BTW: I think we need to use a bug tracking system. When I'll change the code, I need the testcase without digging through hundred of mails.

LoadIcon returs an icon which has all sizes. CopyIcon and DuplicateIcon return only one of the sizes. LoadImage with LR_DEFAULTSIZE loads the large (32x32) icon and scales this down to small (16x16) for the title bar. If I load explicitly the 16x16 it is scaled up to 32x32 for the alt-tab list. But that's not a big problem. We currently use RegisterClass with the WNDCLASS structure. The function RegisterClassEx uses WNDCLASSEX structure which has an entry for the small icon. I don't know if the icon set in the configfile will contain two sizes or if it suffers from the same problem. So the goal is winOverrideDefaultIcon(&hIcon, &hSmallIcon) if (!hIcon && !hSmallIcon) { winXIconToHICON(pWin, &hIcon, &hSmallIcon) } if (!hicon && !hsmallicon) { hIcon = LoadImage(..., SM_CXICON, SM_CYICON, 0) hIconSmall = LoadImage(..., SM_CXSMICON, SM_CYSMICON, 0) } WINDOWCLASSEX wc; wc.cbSize = sizeof(wc); ... wc.hIcon = (hIcon ? hIcon : hIconSmall); wc.hIconSm = hSmallIcon; RegisterClassEx(wc); bye ago -- Alexander.Gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723 From faq3@cn.1618.net Thu May 20 02:52:00 2004 From: faq3@cn.1618.net (faq3@cn.1618.net) Date: Thu, 20 May 2004 02:52:00 -0000 Subject: Software for Search-Engine, Mail, DNS, and more Message-ID: <003301c43dd5$8ebd1020$6301a8c0@1618.net> http://cn.1618.net http://hk.1618.net http://tw.1618.net http://us.1618.net ftp://1618NETSOFTWARE:E171BB2D873546689C770BCBE415B3F6@ftp.1618.net SORRY: this message is created by robot!!!

I have installed cygwin on my XP machine.I downloaded the vim source from vim.org. The vim source and runtime versions I tried are 6.3, 6.2 and 6.1. In each case, after "configure", "make" and "make install" commands, whenever I used to invoke gvim, it terminated with SEGV (segmentation violation signal). >From my observations, I found that gvim receives SEGV in the processing of documentation files, most probably help.txt. When I removed the documentation files from the directory /usr/local/share/vim/*, I could invoke gvim without SEGV. Another way of confirming is to invoke gvim just after compilation, means without installing it in the destination directory (in my case /usr/local). The invocation is done as src/vim and then issue ":gui" command inside vim.

I then want to use a shortcut to bring up xterms as and when I want them. Coming from a UNIX background I understand that I need to use .xsession ot .xinit or .xinitrc, however I am not sure how I can get X to start (without using the provided bash file or Cygwin prompt as I do not want a bash terminal at this stage) which causes this to be read. This is where I will put the ssh-agent start up information. If anyone has accomplished this or has some ideas I would be eternally grateful.

(coLinux is an emulator to run Linux as a Win32 app). there are many ways - 1. coLinux FB 2. DirectFB/SDL 3. VNC 4. Cygwin/X 5. Mingw X Each way has each charactaristics and pros and cons. then, I need your opinion. probably you advocate Cygwin/X very much. but it is ok. any information is welcome. anything is better than nothing. of course, fair comparison is better. Okajima, Jun. Digital Infra, Inc. Tokyo, Japan. http://www.digitalinfra.co.jp/ http://www.colinux.org/ -------------------------- Detailed description: coLinux FB: same as Linux frame buffer but uses DirectX. coLinux kernel allocates some pages on its "Pseudo Physical RAM" and DirectX recognizes it as a frame buffer. then with DirectX hardware accelerated bitblt func, the frame buffer is copied to a video RAM. FYI, for windows, coLinux is recognized as a "big and funny AGP texture RAM". good: generic. can be used many purpose without porting apps. problem: - can utilize H/W acceleration well? for example, can we use bitblt func to display scalable font cached on unusde area of video RAM? - Japananese support. this way needs to use Linux Japanese func, not Win32 one. but Linux is really poor in supporting Japanese. DirectFB/SDL: Making direct path between DirectFB/SDL and DirectX FB. and by using bitblt of Directx, it displays graphics. good: I dont know. Probably coLinux FB is better. I think this is an alternative which we fail to run coLinux FB. VNC: Using VNC server on coLinux side and you install VNC viewer on Windows. then you make a virtual tcp connection between them. good: you can connect from other machines. even on the mobile. bad: can use only for X. maybe big overhead and little bit slower. Note: actually, as far as we tested, it is not slower. rather faster than Cygwin/X in some cases. why? Cygwin/X: you dont need any description here ;). good: orthodox. multiwindow(overlapped) mode. accommodate with Win32 API. - GDI for H/W acceleration. - Windows Japanese support, ex. TT renderer, TT font itself, etc. - better printing than just hitting "print screen" key. bad: slower, buggy, huge, cygwin1.dll version dependency. As far as I know, it has no "reconnection" feature, which I mean when cygwin/X crashes, I can not get the session back even I restart Cygwin/X. Potentially it can use most part of Win32 Japanese support, currently only little stuff is implemented. lacks installer/admin utils. Mingw/X: good: no dependency of version number of cygwin1.dll. bad: under construction. I dont know even detailed feature. it does not run on my PC currently. helps!

Which errors? The recent releases have startup scripts which start XWin in multiwindow mode by default and do not allow running an external windowmanager.

Yes, we do sometimes see people who want to use the cygwin software falling into the mindset that that their usage is typical, deserving of discussion, and crucial to the future of cygwin. However, I really don't see how you could possibly believe that a relatively new project like coLinux would be the biggest usage of Cygwin/X. Cygwin/X has been around for many years. There are 560 people in this mailing list and the word coLinux has not shown up here until you mentioned it. I was politely asking that you invite people who are interested in helping coLinux to come over to a coLinux mailing list to discuss the subject. I really don't see any reason for it to be discussed here. You haven't, however, provided information on where your mailing lists are. Hopping over to the colinux web site, I see that the link for the user's mailing list is: http://www.colinux.org/?section=userml . The developers mailing list is here: http://www.colinux.org/?section=devml . I would again ask that any further discussion on the best methods to add graphics support to coLinux would be to use the coLinux mailing lists and hope that anyone who is interested in helping will hop over there to help out. cgf From denny@figuerres.com Sun May 23 22:32:00 2004 From: denny@figuerres.com (Denny Figuerres) Date: Sun, 23 May 2004 22:32:00 -0000 Subject: new install problems Message-ID: Some further testing shows that many of the .tiff files seem to be corrupt!

Isn't it a bit strange/unsafe that /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 has read/write permissions for everybody? I observed that user A can (accidentally) launch an xterm on the display of user B (who launched XWin with that display), and so expose everything he (i.e. user A) has on that machine. Worse, he could maliciously put some X stuff on the display of the other. (Maybe even read some stuff?) why not set /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 etc to owner access only?

The cursor is changed to a busy-watch at the entire WINDOWS screen and the process can only be stopped via the WINDOWS task manager.

The same startup script is working against another target server (also SUN Solaris), which means that the configuration of xfree86 at my PC is O.K. But, when opening a local X11 root screen (at my PC), I "am" able to establish a ssh session to the remote server, sending xterm's to my local display. So, the only thing which does not seem to work is to get a connection to the UNIX server's X login screen (dtlogin). Does anybody got an idea of what's going wrong here?

Does anyone know what this error is? Does cygwin have support for setting up fonts in this manner? I'm positive my font directory is not corrupted. I appreciate your help. Thanks.

There is a second security layer builtin to X11. You can start XWin with the -auth option and XWin reads authentication options from this file. Then only clients are allowed to connect who know these credentials. So the secure way is to (1) create credentials (2) store them in a file readable only to you (3) add them to ~/.Xauthority (4) start XWin -auth (5) only xterm which has read access to ~/.Xauthority can connect This has been discussed some time ago in the mailinglist and afair there are small scripts available. Search the archives for md5sum. This should bring up some of them. also seee man xauth, Xsecurity, Xserver for more details bye ago NP: Allied Vision - Coaxial Hardware -- Alexander.Gottwald@informatik.tu-chemnitz.de http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723 From a.nugent@unsw.edu.au Tue May 25 01:34:00 2004 From: a.nugent@unsw.edu.au (Allen H.

We, coLinux team found mainly two problem to adopt Cygwin/X for coLinux. 1. Slow. Why VNC is sometimes faster?. I ask you that the milestone of improving Cygwin performance. Especially, how much you can utilize GDI acceleration feature? 2. reconnection. Current Cygwin/X is not stable. often crashes. it is okay. I believe you fix it in the future. but I can not re-connect it ... this is very serious problem. coLinux VM is runnning without problem. but I can not re-connect it. come on.... please help this!!!. and I think this can be fixed. because, Keith Packard, the developer of LBX, which is similar to VNC in its purpose, is developing a function which changes resolution and color depth of X on demand. check here. http://keithp.com/~keithp/talks/ of course, changing resolution needs re-painting a whole desktop. and more. then, why re-connection is impossible? it is rather easy. tell me how. Tell me any suggestion about these problems!. Note: I am rather pro Cygwin guys in coLinux community. the main reason is Japanese support where most of you would have no interest on. but improving Cygwin/X for real usage is your interest, I suppose. --- Okajima. >On Sun, May 23, 2004 at 03:27:39PM +0900, Digital Infra, Inc. wrote: >>Yes, We have ML. and this issue has been discussed for a month. and >>we found that the key problem is we dont know graphics stuff so much. >> >>you dont have an interest for usage of Cygwin/X?

Just for the record: another solution is to make /tmp a user mount, and have it in a different location for each user.

No. Have you tried the 3 variants to start XWin I posted? Maybe this will give a clue if the clipboard or multiwindow thread is not connecting properly and tries a new connection whenever the connection breaks and thus allocating new connections every few seconds. bye ago NP: Allied Vision - Coaxial Hardware -- Alexander.Gottwald@informatik.tu-chemnitz.de http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723 From Alexander.Gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de Tue May 25 07:27:00 2004 From: Alexander.Gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de (Alexander Gottwald) Date: Tue, 25 May 2004 07:27:00 -0000 Subject: slow cygwin /x applications In-Reply-To: <20040521193648.32152.qmail@web21003.mail.yahoo.com> References: <20040521193648.32152.qmail@web21003.mail.yahoo.com> Message-ID: kirat shah wrote: > Hi, > > I recently downloaded the cygwin and cygwin /x > applications (Full download) from cygwin website on my > Pantium III machines.

Make _sure_ xorg-x11-bin-dlls package is installed. Reinstall that package. _Don't_ reinstall any xfree-* packages. There exists the cygcheck command which can check if a package was installed and verify if all files from that package are present.

A bit scary though. > > Kris User mounts are most definitely *NOT* ignored by services -- as long as they are for the appropriate user. Services run as a *user* on your machine called SYSTEM (note the case; a.k.a. LocalSystem), and if that *user* has user mounts, they work just like for any other user. User mounts for the SYSTEM user are not the same as system mounts. Some of the "connotations" that I mentioned above are that a) it's usually hard to set up and later detect SYSTEM mounts, and b) if you, at some point, decide to change the root mount of Cygwin, services may indeed not run properly anymore (because they will have a user mount that overrides the system one *and* points to a now non-existent directory). Also, as you pointed out, it *is* possible to have a system mount for /tmp and a few user mounts for /tmp (one for each user). The user ones will override the system ones when they're present. For a user with no user mounts (e.g., SYSTEM), a system mount will be used. As I said, this is here mostly for completeness. You're absolutely right that it's scary -- it should be (at least for essential paths like "/usr/bin", etc). It is, in general, rather dangerous to have both user and system mounts for the same paths, as they can run out of sync very easily. So use this setup at your own risk, and only if you know what you're doing (or had it explained to you in detail). However, it should work just fine for /tmp, unless you have some application that relies on *sharing* data between users through /tmp (anyone know of any?).

In the package listing screen click the button "View" until the text nearby say "Partial". Now the packages are listed which are about to install. Deselect all but the xorg-x11-* packages. If no xorg-x11-* packages are selected switch back to the "Category" view and select the xorg-x11-* packages from the X11 category. > I also tried to > unzip a copy of it in a temp folder, but nothing happened (I tried "tar x > xorg-x11-bin-dlls-6.7.0.0-4.tar.bz2", but the command never terminated -- > had to use Ctrl-C). You used tar the wrong way. Use tar xjf xorg-x11-bin-dlls-6.7.0.0-4.tar.bz2 The option "j" enables bzip2 decompression. The option "f" tells tar to extract from the given file not from stdin. But using tar to extract cygwin packages is not advisable in general. The install scripts will not be started and the installation may be incomplete. bye ago -- Alexander.Gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723 From alexander.gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de Wed May 26 13:23:00 2004 From: alexander.gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de (Alexander Gottwald) Date: Wed, 26 May 2004 13:23:00 -0000 Subject: Right mouse button functionality and cygwin-xfree In-Reply-To: <11492.1085562717@www55.gmx.net> References: <11492.1085562717@www55.gmx.net> Message-ID: On Wed, 26 May 2004, Ariel Burbaickij wrote: > Hello dear mailing list participants, > I have got following issue with Xfree86 version > of cygwin, interplaying with X-server on Solaris: > right mouse button still does not work.

They are two different pieces of software written be different authors to solve different problems. I have read these posts now for a few days... What you are doing is not helping you or anyone.

This is the symptom of someone who did a "Download from Internet" rather than a "Install from Internet".

No. Reconnection is a feature of the x client not the xserver. How can the xserver restore the last state if it crashed?

Now the packages are listed which are about to install. > Deselect all but the xorg-x11-* packages. Sorry, but this is wrong. Deselecting the checkboxes will result in *uninstalling* the respective packages altogether. What Allen needs to do is select the "Keep" radio button, so that all of his packages will be kept as they are, and then go to the "Full" view and click on the "xorg-x11-bin-dlls" version until he sees "6.7.0.0-4". If "6.7.0.0-4" *is* the current version, click on it until "Reinstall" is shown. Then go to the "Partial" view to verify that this is the only thing that will be installed, and click "Next". Another thing to try is the "-cv" option to cygcheck, which will do a rudimentary integrity checking on your installation of a particular package, e.g. cygcheck -cv xorg-x11-bin-dlls If the status column shows anything but "OK", the missing files should be listed above it. > If no xorg-x11-* packages are selected switch back to the "Category" view > and select the xorg-x11-* packages from the X11 category. > > > I also tried to unzip a copy of it in a temp folder, but nothing > > happened (I tried "tar x xorg-x11-bin-dlls-6.7.0.0-4.tar.bz2", but the > > command never terminated -- had to use Ctrl-C). > > You used tar the wrong way.

It might be user error instead of a problem with Lyx :-) When I run Lyx and want to view or update the document using the "View" menu item, the "Update" and "Latex Logfile" items are grayed out. Lyx seems to work except for this problem. Am I missing some files or do I need to install something else? I had installed Lyx about a year ago and it ran just fine. I had to install miktex and some other programs. But I see now that the Cygwin installer includes Lyx as an option, which is what I am running right now. Any help would be appreciated.

Multisample is a glx feature, right? Have you already tried XWin_GL? This is a binary which uses the windows OpenGL libraries and has many visuals. But is not in a stable version and still has some rough edges.

A common problem is not to check for special modifiers like num or scroll lock. Or they only expect a two button mouse. You could also try xev with Cygwin/X and the other xserver and check where the output differs. bye ago -- Alexander.Gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723 From lchen@secsg.uga.edu Thu May 27 19:05:00 2004 From: lchen@secsg.uga.edu (Lirong Chen) Date: Thu, 27 May 2004 19:05:00 -0000 Subject: Problem with startx Message-ID: <1876.128.192.15.166.1085669107.squirrel@128.192.15.166> Hi, I followed the installation procedure to instal cygwin/X, then when I type: $ startx, the message went up as following with no Xwin opened: -------------------------------- $ startx Welcome to the XWin X Server Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 6.7.0.0-9 Contact: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com XWin was started with the following command line: X :0 -multiwindow -clipboard _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root winValidateArgs - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1 (II) XF86Config is not supported (II) See http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html for more information winDetectSupportedEngines - Windows NT/2000/XP winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw installed winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 00000007 winSetEngine - Multi Window or Rootless => ShadowGDI winAdjustVideoModeShadowGDI - Using Windows display depth of 32 bits per pixel winAllocateFBShadowGDI - Creating DIB with width: 1400 height: 1016 depth: 32 winFinishScreenInitFB - Masks: 00ff0000 0000ff00 000000ff winInitVisualsShadowGDI - Masks 00ff0000 0000ff00 000000ff BPRGB 8 d 24 bpp 32 null screen fn ReparentWindow null screen fn RestackWindow InitQueue - Calling pthread_mutex_init InitQueue - pthread_mutex_init returned InitQueue - Calling pthread_cond_init InitQueue - pthread_cond_init returned winInitMultiWindowWM - Hello winInitMultiWindowWM - Calling pthread_mutex_lock () winMultiWindowXMsgProc - Hello winMultiWindowXMsgProc - Calling pthread_mutex_lock () MIT-SHM extension disabled due to lack of kernel support XFree86-Bigfont extension local-client optimization disabled due to lack of shar ed memory support in the kernel (--) Setting autorepeat to delay=500, rate=31 (--) winConfigKeyboard - Layout: "00000409" (00000409) (EE) Keyboardlayout "US" (00000409) is unknown Rules = "xorg" Model = "pc101" Layout = "us" Variant = "(null)" Options = "(null)" ------------------------ Please help, what I did not completed?

X did get started, but the default mode is now multiwindow (as evidenced by the above log snippet), and you won't see a root window. Just open your X apps as usual. If you want a root window, use "startx -- :0" (or something of the sort, someone will surely correct me if I'm wrong).

Message-ID: <200405271535.i4RFZGmh020958@hartley.stat.tamu.edu> Hello, I have three monitors (WinXP Pro): 1 <-> 2 <-> 3 where 2 is the primary monitor (desktop) and 3 is driven by a old PCI based VGA card. 1 & 2 are driven by the same AGP card. When I start an xterm, it always loads on monitor 1 and everything seems to work. When I move that xterm to monitors 2 or 3 it stops repainting (goes white). Wait! You are about to tell me about -multiplemonitors. That works only if I disable monitor 3. If I have extended/activated the monitor 3 desktop repainting on both monitors 2 and 3 is disabled, regardless of the presence of the -multiplemonitor switch. Is this a known problem? Alternatively, does anyone have this configuration working, so I know the fault is my setup, not cygwin? Is there a work around? Another data point: If I disable monitor 3 and start XWin on multiple monitors, it works and both monitors 1 & 2. If I then enable monitor 3, it continues to work on 1 & 2, but not 3. If I start Xwin with all three monitors enabled, only monitor 1 repainting works.

Cygwin doesn't "run in background". Cygwin is a DLL that you link to applications. If your Windows GUI just creates an input file, why can't your Cygwin program read that file? > If it is then what is the best way to do it. I think you need to explain what you want in much greater detail.

Ok, but how does that relate to making your Windows GUI interact with your Cygwin Fortran code via an input file?

Monitor 1 on the right is the primary monitor (a notebook). The resoultion is 1600x1200. Monitor 2 on the left is the secondary monitor, which is 1280x1024. To be short, all of the x-windows can only repaint correctly if they were totally within 1600 pixels starting from the left-most end of Monitor 2. In this new lab of mine (which is very rich....) even the students have two monitors. I am going to teach them C++ since June, and I shall ask them to install cygwin.... I hope that by that time they will not be puzzled by this behavior of cygwin on dual monitors.

I'm trying to work out a way to configure our setups so that it's easy for individual users to choose between running rooted and using ..xinitrc, or rootless (if I can put it that way). Is "xwinwm" a synonym for the Windows window manager? If I start with -nodecoration and stick "exec xwinwm" in my .xinitrc, will I get a rootless bunch of windows managed by Windows?

I suppose you might be wanting to telnet to a remote Sun system using an existing Cygwin terminal window running on your PC, in that case I think you are out of luck. I suppose what I'm suggesting is that you run cygwin/X and use xdm to display your Sun desktop on your PC, then you can have Sun terminals as you want. For what it's worth I have used Solaris platforms for development for many years but I weaned myself off the Sun proprietory terminal emulators very early on. I've standardised on rxvt (which is essentially an xterm without tektronix graphics) and find that there is very little I can't do with that.

The terminology doesn't come to mind: something to the effect that some of the older Sun clients only run in the frame buffer. (There are other issues with some other features - there are fonts that don't display remotely because they're Sun-proprietary and encrypted in some way). Just because it's on the workstation's X display doesn't mean it's usable from a remote workstation. > Certainly all the Sun terminals work here where I'm displaying my SUn > desktop on a PC using xdm. > Yes, I realised that, but what I said is where rxvt 'came from' as it > were. Where it 'came from' is more than that - it discarded all of Xt (the resource mechanism). Originally all of rxvt's optional features were hardcoded - compile-time-only. It has some ability to read resource files (which is not really interpreting the patterns compatibly with Xt), but that came a few years later. Omitting Xt is the major part of reducing size (but most of that is shared memory). Also since it doesn't use Xt, some of the ways it manipulates the graphics are done differently (sometimes a good thing, sometimes now). The comment in rxvt's manpage about Tektronix emulation has been obsolete for several years (see xterm's changelog to note when I made it optional). > > > What do you need sun-cmd or dtterm for? > > > > it's probably what he's using right now. > > > He said ne *needed* them for some things.

I searched the mailing lists and web site, and didn't come up with anything. I'm trying to use cygwin X with an application that sometimes opens big windows. Bigger than fits on my 1024x768 screen anyways. Cygwin X 'truncates' these windows on the right and bottom of the screen, and the content of the truncated area can't be accessed. If I use the same app with Exceed, Exceed allows me to 'scroll' the window. If the window has focus and I move the mouse cursor against the right side of the screen, the window content is scrolled to show the 'hidden' content. Is there any way to achieve the same with Cygwin X? I'm using Cyginw X with the windows window manager, and I've tried to start the X server with a screen size bigger than my physical screen, to no avail.

I think I already mentioned that this is standard cygwin behavior. There is no reason to rehash it again. I'm sure that google would be informative on this subject. If someone don't like the fact that cygwin opens a listening socket whenever it uses select then -- either don't use cygwin or look at the code in select.cc and suggest a better plan. cgf From a.nugent@unsw.edu.au Sun May 30 20:30:00 2004 From: a.nugent@unsw.edu.au (Allen H.

I RTFM, but being no expert in Unix I could not find what I needed to know, namely, how the login process differs for the same user between a bash login shell started on the X server, and one that is started without the X server. The bash login shell on the X server starts up by sending this message before the command prompt appears: lstat(./kpsewhich) failed ... ./kpsewhich: No such file or directory The bash login shell without the X server starts up "normally". The user in both cases is the same, so is it safe to conclude that file permissions are not the cause of this difference? I've attached the output of "cygcheck -s -r -v" in the hopes that someone can spot the problem there. In any case, I'd really appreciate some guidance on how to start debugging this issue. Thanks.

Have you tried -multiwindow or -rootless? These options will allow you to still see your Windows desktop and other Windows apps behind your X apps. Use -multiwindow if you are not using a separate window manager Use -rootless if you are using a separate window manager If you are using XDM it usually starts a separate window manager for you, so try it with -rootless.
