Instead, I have been tracking annoying build warnings and fighting with Windows XP to try to tell it, no, I really do want to search every single file, not just the ones that Microsoft products are known to store text in... anyway... The build warnings are below; they repeat for every Imakefile that is processed during the build. Okay, forget about HasMakefileSafeInclude... I want to fix UseInstalledOnCrossCompile first. Now, UseInstalledOnCrossCompile is a YES/NO define, it is not a flag that is either defined or not defined. Thus, the following lines that declare it are stupid: /* * X-specific things */ #if CrossCompiling # if defined UseInstalled && !defined UseInstalledOnCrossCompile # define UseInstalledOnCrossCompile YES # endif #endif So, if you aren't cross compiling, or if you are but you didn't specify UseInstalled, then the flag will simply not be defined. It won't be defined to NO, like it should be. I made the following changes that seemed to clear up this set of error messages: /* * X-specific things */ #if CrossCompiling # if defined UseInstalled && !defined UseInstalledOnCrossCompile # define UseInstalledOnCrossCompile YES # else # define UseInstalledOnCrossCompile NO # endif #else # define UseInstalledOnCrossCompile NO #endif Any comments?

I can get remote X clients, running on my Linux box to appear on my W2K box providing that my Dial Up Networking is connected to the internet. If I disconnect then the X-Client disappears off my screen. I now believe that this has something to do with the dynamic IP address that my ISP gives me when I connect. I think that the X-Client on my Linux box is using my dynamically allocated IP from my ISP to communicate with my W2K box. It is not using the 192.168.X.X one. This explains why I need to be connected to the internet for xwin to work. I tried this experiment: If I type: xwin -query 192.168.0.2 -from 192.168.0.1 it doesn't work However: xwin -query 192.168.0.2 -from ...
then it works. This confirms to me that LAN network addresses do not work for some reason. I thought maybe this has something to do with firewall settings, but I don't think iptables is even compiled into my debian kernel. This might be a good time to let people know that my W2K box is setup for Internet Connection Sharing (The linux box uses 192.168.0.1 as it's gateway to the internet). Anyone have any ideas!

I can tell you that running xhost on your Windows machine won't help anything. What you need to do is run xhost in a terminal that is running within your -query session. That should setup XWin.exe on your machine to accept connections from local clients. The reason you can run xhost on your Windows machine is that not even xhost has permission to connect to XWin.exe at that point, so xhost cannot modify the access control list. I hope that helps, let us know if it does.

I found this after seeing the source code of xwinclip. I think it would be better if xwinclip process '-display' option as other X clients do, or give error message if the option is not recognized. (Someone may say that it's the bash's fault since bash does not set DISPLAY environment variable.) I tried 'export DISPLAY=:0' and 'xwinclip' instead of doing 'xwinclip -display :0', then it works.

The only interpreter for batch files is cmd.exe. After being started, cmd check if it has console (the windows terminal window) attached and creates one if not. Xterm (or better the bash running in xterm) has no possibility to tell cm.exe to use the xterm window.

Windows cmd.exe has no problem with running within an xterm, as can be easily verified by typing cmd.exe at a bash prompt. However, once cmd.exe is running, any *cygwin* program started from that cmd (e.g., bash) will pop up a new window. ISTR some discussion of this on the cygwin list, but don't remember whether there was any resolution.

However, I believe I have an explanation of what's happening, though not a solution: Cygwin programs running in an xterm have a tty that does not have a console window associated with it. When any cygwin program is invoked, it checks (through a part of cygwin1.dll) whether it's running in a tty, and if so, does not try to manipulate the console at all. However, when cmd.exe is run in such a setting, it loses the tty information. Thus, a program invoked from this cmd.exe session has neither a tty nor a console window, so it has to allocate one. Hope this makes sense. To the original poster: since there is no way to propagate tty information through a cmd.exe session, I suppose the best solution would still be the one Alexander proposed, i.e., live with it.

Ah, I guess I meant something like Christopher Faylor's followup comment: why would one want to call a batch file that calls cygwin programs (from Cygwin)? I don't see why you'd need to use batch files for internal development... As long as Cygwin's /bin directory is in the Windows path, they can invoke shell scripts through 'sh scriptname.sh' from either cmd.exe or xterm with the output going to the right console. There's no need for a batch file. The ant build script is a harder case. Here, if I understood correctly, you actually utilize a Windows program (WebLogic RMIC) from a Cygwin program (ANT). However, the problem you describe only appears if a Cygwin program is used from a batch file, which is in turn called by a Cygwin program. So either the RMIC process calls some Cygwin program (instead of its Windows equivalent), which is probably an error anyway, or something else is happening that was not intended to happen. Perhaps someone else on the list might have a better idea on how to deal with this, or you might provide further details. I still think that, as long as you cleanly separate Windows programs from Cygwin, you will not be affected by the tty problem.

It does not work in fullscreen mode because the defaults for the fullscreen dimensions are calculated before the command line parameters are parsed (as far as I could figure out).

I like it alot! I am currently trying to get a build of Kensuke's latest multiwindow patch posted and a patch to xwinclip to handle the -display parameter. Once I get those done I will start merging your patch. Or, I may merge them both at once, but it would probably be wiser to wait so we have two versions to assign bug blame :) Thanks for the patch, Harold Nick Crabtree wrote: >Hi, > >I attach a patch for multiple monitors, diffed against >xwin-20021107-0015.

I got everything in place... the source code, the binary, the web page updates, etc. Then I noticed that my XWinrl.log was over 400 KB for only two minutes of running XWin.exe. I then tried to go back through your code and #if CYGDEBUG the ErrorF messages... but that got to be pointless because you may have updated the code since sending it in. Could you please go through the code and wrap each of the ErrorF messages with something like #if CYGMULTIWINDOW_DEBUG ? Then define CYGMULTIWINDOW_DEBUG in win.h to be YES, or NO, just like the other flags that we use (like CYGDEBUG). Then you can have the debug messages for multiwindow mode print out, and I can easily disable all of them (except the really important ones) when I try to make a test release.

However, I have a few questions. In winshaddd.c/winAllocateFBShadowDD () (etc.) you load the height and width (dwHeight, dwWidth) of either the screen or the virtual screen, depending upon whether we are using multiple monitors or not. You then use the equality or non-equality of the height and width of the screen or virtual screen versus the size specified on the command-line to determine whether or not to switch the display mode of only the primary display. That doesn't make much sense. We really can't be switching modes of any of the multiple monitors when the size of the virtual screen does not match the requested size. I mean, how would we know which monitor to change the resolution of, and by how much, without some extensive logic that is simply not present? I suggest that we leave out the changes in winAllocateFBShadowDD and its cousins. Am I simply misunderstanding things, or does this make sense to you too?

I have added a command-line flag -multiplemonitors which activates the extra code. This works on my machine in both windowed and rootless modes for engines 1, 2 and 4. It does not work in fullscreen mode because the defaults for the fullscreen dimensions are calculated before the command line parameters are parsed (as far as I could figure out). It should be possible to make this behaviour the default (SM_CXSCREEN == SM_CXVIRTUALSCREEN etc. if there is only one monitor), which would remove many of the if {} else {} blocks, and also might make fullscreen mode work My machine is running Windows 2000. Both my graphics cards are set at 1600x1200 32bit colour.

It will be surprising to you to receive this proposal from me since you do not know me personally. However, I am sincerely seeking your confidence in this transaction, which I propose with my free mind and as a person of integrity. My name is Owen Mubane, the first son of Mapele Mubane, of the most popular black farmer from Zimbabwe, murdered in the land dispute in my country. As led by my instict, I decided to contact you through email, after searching for contacts via the internet, as it is the only means I can contact anybody since I am cutting off ties with Zimbabwe for security and safety reasons. However, I apologize if this is not acceptable to you. The purpose of this letter is to seek your most needed assistance in a business venture. Due to the land and political problems in Zimbabwe, as a result of President Robert Mugabe's introduction of new Land Act Reform wholly affecting the rich white farmers and the few rich black farmers, and his desire to hold on to power for life, my father for saw the danger that came in Zimbabwe. Before he was murdered, he withdrew all of our business foreign accounts in dollars and sold up our shares in major companies. We then went to SOUTH AFRICA to deposit the sum of US$14.5 million (Fourteen million, Five Hundred thousand US dollars), in a private security company. This money was deposited with this Private Security company for safety and security reasons, and was to be used for the purchase of land, new machines and chemicals establishment of new farms in Europe. President Mugabe's support for the violent Zimbabwean war veterans and some lunatics in the society, led to the murder of my beloved father and other innocent lives. I was continually threatened to abandon my inheritance from my father after he was murdered. I resited for a while, but when the danger became unbearable, and I survived two murder attempts, I fled Zimbabwe. I am currently staying in the Netherlands where I am seeking political asylum. In fact my decision to come here to seek asylum, is because the security company from South Africa, has a branch here, and they have moved the deposit from their office in Johannesburg down here. I need to transfer this money to an account and invest part of the money. Since the law of Netherlands prohibits a refugee (asylum seeker) to open any bank account or to be involved in any financial transaction, this is why I am seeking a genuine and reliable partner, whose account this money can be transferred, hence this proposal to you.You have to understand that this decision taken by me entrusts my future and in your hands, as a result of the safe keeping of this money. If you accept to assist me, all I want you to do for me, is to assist with arrangements to claim the deposit from the security company from their office here in The Netherlands, as it has now been transfered from Johannesburg, South Afri! ca to their branch here. The company will be legally informed of you representing me. For your assistance, I have two options for you. Firstly you can choose to have 10% of the money for your assistance, and helping me open an account for the money to be deposited here, or you can go into partnership with me for the proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you want, please to notify me in your reply. I have also set aside 1%($145,000,00) of this money for all kinds of expenses that come our way in the process of this transaction, and 4% ($580,000,00) for Charity donation. If you prefer to accept the 10% for assisting with opening an account, then 85%will be left in the account here for me. Please, I want you maintain the absolute secrecy for the purpose of this transaction. I look forward to your reply and co-operation, and I thank you in advance as I anticipate your co-operation.You can reach me on my direct line which is 31 612 722 388 or via email owenmubane2000@rediffmail.com.

With VNC you are able to forward display, mouse and keyboard to another machine. Thereby it is possible to connect from UNIX to Windows and start the application via mouseclick. In my case it is necessarry to start the windows-application through a Unix-Application (Perl-Script, Shell-Script, etc).I don't think, that there is a solution for that problem using VNC. Is it ?

If you need aceess to Windows GUI applications (you mentioned Notepad), you need a way to export the GUI. Windows is not X-Windows based so you have to use something else. We suggested VNC. There are others. Rdesktop if the Desktop is NT 4 or higher. You could run Windows Terminal Server and use either Rdesktop or the Citrix ICA java client. BTW, I use and SSH tunnel for VNC everyday. I can run any application I want included Cygwin applications.

I'm no windows expert but maybe you try to not run the sshd as a service but start it up during the user login on the windows machine. This way I think that the sshd will be connected to the local display.

Message-ID: REQUEST I am MR REUBEN SAVIMBI one of the favorite sons of Mr.JONAS SAVIMBI (The Rebel leader) and also the head of the Unita Forces of Angola who was killed in the Struggle between Angolan arm forces and his unita rebels On Friday the 22nd of February 2002. I am from Angola but currently I am currently on exile due to the War in my country between the Rebel Group (Unita rebels) Led by my father Jonas Savimbi and the Angolan Government. I want a trust worthy, honest and God fearing individual to go into business Partnership with and that is the reason why I have decided to contact you. The fund for investment is US$45.5M (Forty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) and Diamond worth over Twelve Million Dollars. This fund was realized from the sales of Diamonds during the crisis between the Unita Rebels (headed by my father Jonas Savimbi) and the then President Jose Eduardo dos Santos Of Angola. I fled from my country with this fund, which my father suppose to use procure more arms for the Unita Rebels. This is because I felt that the battle waged by the Unita Forces was more of rebellion and it was baseless. I had this fund sealed in a diplomatic box and deposited in a private Security Company in Europe. I will need assistance from you to use your facilities to effect the removal of this fund and subsequently transferred to your nominated account in your country. This business has to be done in a more confidential manner. For participating in the business with me, I have two options for you. You can choose to have certain percentage of the funds or you can go into partnership with me for proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify me. The money is presently lodged with a security firm and I will give you further details immediately I hear from you. Please contact me immediately for the next line of action then I will introduce you to the security company where the funds are been deposited. I would like you to include your personal phone and fax numbers for more confidential Communication with the Security Company. I will like you to understand that I have no access to telephone for now so you are advice to contact me through my email address. Regards REUBEN J.SAVIMBI.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <3E235D3C.204@msu.edu> Francisco, Do you know what a DirectColor visual is? Do you know why you would need a DirectColor visual? Do you know of any Windows-based graphics cards that actually support DirectColor? My understanding of DirectColor is that it allows you to specify the range of colors that will be used in a mode that is similar to TrueColor... however, I don't know of a single Windows graphics card that allows you to do that. I don't know of any program that utilizes such a visual either. As such, there is no support for DirectColor in Cygwin/XFree86. I don't expect that there will ever be DirectColor support in Cygwin/XFree86 unless someone can explain to me that I am way wrong. DirectColor seems like a lot of things in X: it was thought to be REALLY useful when X was designed, but it turned out to be anything but useful. I read about those things once, then I ignore them after that. So, anyone else know what DirectColor is?

DirectColor is a read/write colormap just like PseudoColor. TrueColor is a read only colormap just like StaticColor. Direct/True giving more colors than the other two though. Alan.

If you can't get a read/write colormap from Windows, then apart from emulating it, it'd be pretty hard to support it. There are some applications that would use it though, if it were available. There are a few graphics cards that support this mode in the *nix versions of XFree86 though. Alan.

4.3.0 status update Message-ID: <20030114145100.GG824@fairlite.demon.co.uk> This is what David Dawes wrote about the forthcoming 4.3.0 release. Harold, Alex, and others. Can you take the time to really test the current CVS and get patches in now. Thanks. Alan. ----- Forwarded message from David Dawes ----- Here's a quick status update regarding the 4.3.0 release. With one or two exceptions, most of the submissions that came in before the feature freeze have been integrated. The remaining ones should be done over the next week, and the next snapshot tagged (4.2.99.4). Also, the bug fixes submitted in the last few days should be reviewed and integrated soon. There have been some unavoidable delays related to a combination of unresolved bugs, the Holidays, and day job commitments that some of us have, so it's looks like the release date will slip by 2-3 weeks. The current tentative schedule is: Last submission date for non-critical fixes 1 February 2003 End of integration of non-critical fixes 5 February 2003 Last submission date for documentation(*) 10 February 2003 Last submission date for release notes 14 February 2003 4.3.0 tagged for release 15-16 February 2003 4.3.0 available from ftp.xfree86.org 17 February 2003 4.2.99.4 snapshot tagged 17-19 January 2003 4.2.99.901 (RC1) tagged 25-26 January 2003 other release candidates tagged as-needed Note the usual disclaimers: This is a tentative schedule only, and may change without notice. It's as accurate as I can make it, but don't plan your life around it! Most of the XFree86 release work is handled by volunteers on their own time, and most of us have day jobs that have to take priority over spare-time work like this.

I think the rootless (not multiwindow) mode and multimonitor are nice features for 4.3.0 too bye ago From huntharo@msu.edu Tue Jan 14 15:35:00 2003 From: huntharo@msu.edu (Harold L Hunt II) Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2003 15:35:00 -0000 Subject: 4.3.0 status update In-Reply-To: <20030114145100.GG824@fairlite.demon.co.uk> References: <20030114145100.GG824@fairlite.demon.co.uk> Message-ID: <3E242BC0.1070602@msu.edu> Once I make an official release of the multi-monitor patch I can submit both the multi-window and multi-monitor patches.

Basically, we need to get things in before Jan 17, right? After that it means that we will have two distinctly different versions in the branches, right? That has always been a pain in the past.

No. I think it's too early for that patch anyway. I was hoping the pseudo reloc stuff would just work without any intervention, but alas it doesn't so I wouldn't want to make such intrusive changes at this stage. Alan.

The XFree86 CVS will branch to become xf-4_3_0-branch and new work will continue on HEAD. Patches to 4.3.0 will be applied to the xf-4_3_0-branch. Strictly speaking - no new features are allowed at this point, only bug fixes. So the new multi-window/monitor stuff shouldn't be allowed. But I'll see what I can do when I see the patch. Alan.

No. A new branch will be created for bugfixes for 4.3.0 and new features will only go to the main branch. > That has always been a pain in the past. Depends on how you use it. If we get a lot of patches for 4.3.0 and apply these and also get a lot of new features for the main branch, we'll get very different branches. But if we fix bugs only in the main branch, then we don't need the branch. bye ago -- Alexander.Gottwald@informatik.tu-chemnitz.de http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723 From alexander.gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de Tue Jan 14 16:02:00 2003 From: alexander.gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de (Alexander Gottwald) Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2003 16:02:00 -0000 Subject: 4.3.0 status update In-Reply-To: <20030114153541.GI824@fairlite.demon.co.uk> Message-ID: On Tue, 14 Jan 2003, Alan Hourihane wrote: > No. I think it's too early for that patch anyway.

In the past it has been difficult to submit, and get Alan to commit, dual patches for both head and a branch. After about a month, I think Alan deletes the branch, so patches to it seem to go to lala land. So my point is pretty much: January 17 for fewer headaches. :) Harold > >>After that it >>means that we will have two distinctly different versions in the >>branches, right? > > > No. A new branch will be created for bugfixes for 4.3.0 and new features > will only go to the main branch. > > >>That has always been a pain in the past. > > > Depends on how you use it.

If there's a delay in committing, then it's nothing to do with deleting branches etc. It's to do with my time. Alan.

Message-ID: <91B8B800D848D611903F000347992DC10235DDCE@sbnex642.als.allied.com> After starting xwin with "startx &", using a customized .xinitrc to start icewm, I am unable to append a network font path using the xset command, as in xset fp+ tcp/server_name:server_port This hangs the x server, and requires me to kill it using alt-F-4. On the other hand, if I start the server with startx -- -fp tcp/server_name:serverport & the server does start without hanging, and appears to use the network font server successfully. There doesn't seem to be a way to append to the font path using startx, because extra arguments eventually get passed to xwin, which only allows a complete specification of the font path, rather than allowing prepends, appends, deletes, etc as in xset. So the apparent bug in xset seems to be a roadblock to what I want to accomplish.

patches were lost. I am talking about patches that I submitted after the 4.2.0 branch. After about two weeks you stopped committing them to both trees, even though I noted that they should be committed to both trees. I thought I remember you telling me at one point that you didn't have a local 4.2.0 tree anymore... I could be wrong, but I got the impression that I shouldn't waste more time with 4.2.0 patches, so that's what I did. Are you telling me instead that you will be able to apply bug fixes to a stable 4.3.0 tree for the life cycle of that version? That would be nice indeed.

Well, it doesn't take me two seconds to get another 4.2.0 tree, if you really want stuff committing there. I have to draw the line at fixes to the 4.2.0 branch as purely fixes for bugs though. So if there's still something missing, let me know. > Are you telling me instead that you will be able to apply bug fixes to a > stable 4.3.0 tree for the life cycle of that version? That would be > nice indeed. Yes. But again, purely bug fixes - no features. Alan.

I believe so. Officially, direct color is the superset for colormaps excluding TrueColor. Unofficially, it allows for simultaneous usage of several colormaps, normally Xservers allow (3 simultanous colormaps-read/write (dynamic) based on Xlib books). >Do you know why you would need a DirectColor visual? We have a pseudo-color application in-which we update the bitmaps using the colormap table, which are updated through mouse events. The bitmaps are typically on the order of 1024x1024. (Without the read/write colormaps we would have to redraw the pixmaps everytime, too much to update. I have tried this using TrueColor already. We can get redraw update delays on the order of several seconds and get performance issues with X) The problem with this program is the flickering in 8 bit mode. Most of the window managers want to use a wide range of colors (openbox, afterstep, etc..). To minimize the flickering, we attempt to take over the screen and switch the Xserver and window manager to 8 bits. (We still get flickering) Ideally, I would like do be able to allocate a dynamic colormap without all the flickering associated in 8 bit by running in 24 bit, thus directcolor, and be able to do the same updates without redrawing the pixmaps as we currently do. Actually, I would be satisfied, if the XFree86 running 24 bit True color would have a 8 bit pseudocolor visual available and be reported by xdpyinfo. Then I could match the visual and be happy..:) --I am not sure how to enable backingstore with cygwin/XFree86 either. >Do you know of any Windows-based graphics cards that actually support >DirectColor? --Actually, I do not know.

The information given by that backtrace is completely useless since XWin as well as the Cygwin DLL don't contain debugging symbols. The addresses have no meaning w/o that info.

I have a couple of applications that run fine on Exceed, but if I run them on XFree, the windows produced from various menu options selected in the main X-app window are larger than my desktop. I know that I can press Alt and left/right click my mouse to resize these windows, but it seems strange that they are fired up this way, when the size is constrained within the desktop on Exceed. Is this a configuration issue that I can fix?

You are right that it is not needed at all actually. Invoke XWin with a startxwin.bat batch file with start XWin -multiwindow run rxvt -sl 1000 -e bash -l this will insure your bash prompt wil appear if it is in .bashrc. You can also add stuff like -fg black -bg white -fm 9x16bold --scrollstyle next -sr to the rxvt line to make it look nicer.

I'm having problem with the new mulitiwindow mode when used with kterm, a Japanese capable version of xterm. Rootless mode works flawlessly. If I only have one kterm running, everything seems to be normal. But if I start a second kterm up, things gets funny. It seems that, the two running kterms are trying to copy each other's contents on to their own window, and gets messed up. If I start up third or more kterms, everything comes back to normal again. BTW, I'm using the Test-Server 71. Kterm was compiled using patches from FreeBSD's ports system and a cygwin patch off the net. Is there anything that I could help to solve this problem?

I think what he means is that he has escape sequences in his prompt to update the titlebar of the window, which stopped working as of multiwindow mode. The same thing happened with mine (although I do mine with "export PROMPT_COMMAND" rather than embedding them in the prompt itself), but I wasn't going to say anything. :) As for the now-superfluous root window taskbar tab, I'm sure it will be moved into the system tray soon enough, once the debugging phase is over. And as for the Word document...hmm, no, I'll spare the list. ;) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John Buttery (Web page temporarily unavailable) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

In any case, it may take a little bit of engineering to compartmenalize the functionality in the root window message procedure so that it can be used in fullscreen and multiwindow modes. Just thought I would share that... hiding the root window may not be trivial.

Eric Bracken) Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2003 14:08:00 -0000 Subject: grep: Command not found when starting tcsh Message-ID: <3E26BB88.4060007@ansoft.com> Note to the Cygwin-XFree86 team: I have Cygwin and XFree86 installed, and I was getting annoying messages of the form Grep: command not found every time I started up a tcsh shell. I finally tracked the problem down to the file /etc/profile.d/00xfree.csh. This script apparently executes before all other login scripts and is intended to put /usr/X11R6/bin on your path. Unfortunately it includes this line: eval "echo ${PATH} | grep -q ${X11PATH}" Because it's executing so early on, the PATH hasn't been properly set up yet, and grep was not being found. By replacing "grep" with "/bin/grep", the problem was resolved. This had already been done in the file 00xfree.sh in the same directory so I'm surprised the 00xfree.csh file hadn't been modified too. --Eric From huntharo@msu.edu Thu Jan 16 14:11:00 2003 From: huntharo@msu.edu (Harold L Hunt II) Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2003 14:11:00 -0000 Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Server Test 71 [DEBUG BUILD] In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <3E26BCE8.8040009@msu.edu> JS, Running ``find'' in Cygwin does not search all of your drives, not even all of your local drives. It only searches within your Cygwin installation directory. I want you to go into Windows Explorer, right-click on your C drive and do a search for cygwin1.dll. Then I want you to do it again for your D drive, etc. It doesn't look like the problem has anything to do with threads.

To preload the username, you need to create ~/.ssh/config and specify the "User" option. As for not prompting for the password, to do that you'll need to create a RSA/DSA key pair and use ssh-agent. Check out the following manpages for this stuff: man ssh_config man ssh-keygen man ssh-agent > i'm pretty new to this and i'm definitely no expert, i'm sure someone > has the answer to this; i'm also thinking its possible that a clean > xterm can be requested to be opened from the remote side: a shell with > 'remote@domain.com' after ssh has successfully logged me in without > prompting me. (after it has run in the background while starting up > with the local X-server) You certainly could type "xterm" and have it run...as for doing it automatically, you might find that running X applications automatically on login is more trouble than it's worth. ;) If you want to, though, I would imagine you could put "xterm" in your ~/.bash_login or whatever. > i don't want to depend on any window driver wrappers for ssh. and as > you may know the danger of doing this...if i start kde or gnome, i > can't kill this xterm box without closing up all of kde or gnome in > one shot... Well of course, that's because the ssh client is forwarding the port that those applications are using...kill ssh and you kill the port forwarding. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John Buttery (Web page temporarily unavailable) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

But I gave Test71 with multiwindow a try, and I have a couple of remarks. When I add the options "-auth "$HOME/.Xauthority", the server will die after twenty, thirty seconds. In this time, I can start some clients, which appear without problem (xclock, xterm, ...). Whether or not I start clients, at the end of /tmp/XWinrl.log I always find: ... DISPLAY=:0.0 AUDIT: Fri Jan 17 10:15:31 2003: 392 xwin_new: client 1 rejected from local host (last line 5 times) The "DISPLAY=:0.0" is new, Test69 does not show that. I also get the following output: 182 [main] xwin_new 392 fhandler_console::fixup_after_exec: error opening console after exec, errno 13, Win32 error 5 10 [main] sh 169 fhandler_console::fixup_after_exec: error opening console after exec, errno 13, Win32 error 5 15419 [main] sh 169 fhandler_console::dup: error opening console, Win32 error 5 7 [main] cat 389 fhandler_console::fixup_after_exec: error opening console after exec, errno 13, Win32 error 5 Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server^M Xlib: No protocol specified ^M (last three lines 5 times) Then two minor remarks: - I can not kill a single client/window with Alt-F4, the server dies. - "xterm -geometry 80x50-0-0" positions the window one line too low Just so that you would know what to do this weekend. ;-) Geert =============================== This email is confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.

Anyway, the reason for this post is to make others aware, as I have not seen it mentioned in the archives, - so forgive me if it's there and I missed it - that in order to copy and paste text from an exported SUN dtterm back into Windows (notepad or something), you have to select the dtterm text, CTRL-Insert (copy) within the dtterm, then SELECT some other text from a regular cygwin xterm to push the dtterm text into the clipboard, then you can paste into Windows. If you don't selct the subsequent text from a Cygwin xterm, the dtterm never gets pushed intot he clipboard and you can't past your dtterm text into Windows. You can, however, copy and paste by merely selecting and middle clicking anywhere in Xwindows, or from xterm to windows, just not from dtterm to windows without using the above method. I've tried this numerous times, with the latest xwinclip installed, and using Blackbox as my Window Manager. The other thing that won't work within dtterm is if you open a file in vi the SHIFT special characters, like #, won't work. I get a beep. Anyone know how to fix that one?

'info dll' should help tell what the 0x100f8628 address is related to. However, it would certainly help if you built debugging versions of the X DLLs so that symbol info would be available. It doesn't seem to be dying in the cygwin DLL, that much is relatively clear. cgf On Fri, Jan 17, 2003 at 09:24:59AM +0000, J S wrote: >Still no luck.

Message-ID: <3E28C614.9000401@JaySmith.com> Hi, I have just installed xwinclip on a Window 95 PC according to the instructions on the xwinclip web page. The xwinclip.exe is dated 29 December 2002, thus I assume that it is Test07. It was on my system as the result of an install of Cygwin that was downloaded about a week ago -- I guess Test08 was not in that. I start Cygwin and it seems to take longer to start, but does not give any error messages. I am trying to use xwinclip to copy/paste between Mozilla 1.2 running on a Red Hat 8 server -- Linux/Mozilla is running through the Cygwin XFree86 stuff that is running on this PC. When I try to copy/paste in either direction, I get nothing; nothing happens. No errors, no crashes, just nothing. My primary need is to copy URLs to/from IE 5.x and Linux Mozilla 1.2. Between Window 95 programs, copy/paste works fine. Between Mozilla windows copy/paste works fine. Between other linux windows and Mozilla, copy/paste does _not_ work. ?? How do determine if the xwinclip is even running? ?? How should I further test to try to determine the source of the problem?

I modified the one that prints to the log file, but I did not modify the one used in the call to XOpenDisplay. Thus, there was no functional change in the XWin-Test72-DEBUG.exe binary.

The first problem is totally unrelated to the new multiwindow mode. The problem is, if you startup XWin.exe in gdb, a call to fchown causes a SIGSEGV on every single execution. That sucks. You can avoid that problem by setting a break in _XSERVTransSocketUNIXCreateListener, then stepping until right before the call to fchown, then ``set updateOwner=0'', which causes the call to be skipped. After that you can continue. In non-multiwindow mode the server will run fine after the continue. The second problem is that in multiwindow mode the call to pthread_mutex_init causes a SIGSEGV. That sucks too. I have peeked at the code for pthread_mutex, but I can't figure out much. I might eventually have to setup a cygwin1.dll build environment so I can debug this, but I would really like to avoid that if possible. I actually started building a debug version of cygwin1.dll tonight, but I got to the part where it needs libiberty and I wussed out. I am kinda stuck. Any help would be appreciated. Even saying, ``yeah, we know that gdb doesn't work well when you call fchown'' would be help enough for me. Oh yeah, I also tried this with the 20030117 cygwin1.dll snapshot. Same results.

The problem does also happen when not running in gdb. Perhaps I will just continue past the first two SIGSEGV's and see what the third one is.

Some of the pthread code does a check of invalid memory and ends up raising an exception that is caught by the debugger. Unfortunately, there isn't much that gdb can do to detect that situation so we're stuck just continuing in that scenario. If a continue ends up leaving you in the same place then it really is a SIGSEGV. cgf From bobg@voyinfo.com Sun Jan 19 18:28:00 2003 From: bobg@voyinfo.com (Robert Gottesman) Date: Sun, 19 Jan 2003 18:28:00 -0000 Subject: Can't open display w/Cygwin on Win XP Message-ID: <000001c2bfe4$4e2e96c0$0500a8c0@voyagerxp> Starting Cygwin/Xfree86 (4.2) with starxwin.bat or startxwin.sh or startx ends up with the same message them ..

Is that the case or not? If you do have firewall/VNC software installed, I can assure you that it most likely IS the problem; the fact that other software works fine has no bearing on whether or not Cygwin/XFree86 will work fine. You see, Cygwin/XFree86 is heavily dependent upon TCP/IP working exactly correctly. Remember, we are not just using the Win32 API for TCP/IP... we are using Cygwin to emulate the POSIX/UNIX interface to TCP/IP using the Win32 API TCP/IP calls. This requires taking advantage of some peculiarities of the Win32 API TCP/IP interface. Can you assure us that your firewall/VNC vendor implemented each and every one of those peculiarities correctly? If not, then we just have to assume that the firewall/VNC software is the problem. We have dealt with this issue several times in the past and the correlation between Cygwin/XFree86 not working and firewall/VNC software being the blame is about 100% in cases where firewall/VNC software was ever installed on the machine. Yeah, that's another little bit about the firewall/VNC software: some of the vendors are sloppy and their uninstall routines do not replace the original Win32 API TCP/IP DLLs... they just leave their own in place. We have had people that have uninstalled firewall/VNC software and still could not get Cygwin/XFree86 to work. Then they reinstalled Windows and Cygwin/XFree86 worked. As a final test they reinstalled the firewall/VNC software and Cygwin/XFree86 broke. They uninstalled the firewall/VNC software and Cygwin/XFree86 was still broken. That was all in the mailing list archives, but I felt like writing about it for some reason. Hope that helps, Harold P.S. Oh yeah, and if you have never installed firewall/VNC software on your Windows machine, then kindly disregard the above. :) -----Original Message----- From: cygwin-xfree-owner@cygwin.com [mailto:cygwin-xfree-owner@cygwin.com]On Behalf Of Robert Gottesman Sent: Sunday, January 19, 2003 12:58 PM To: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com Subject: Can't open display w/Cygwin on Win XP Starting Cygwin/Xfree86 (4.2) with starxwin.bat or startxwin.sh or startx ends up with the same message them ..

This functionality is accessible via the ``-clipboard'' command-line parameter. (Harold Hunt) 2) Delay the execution of the Multi-Window Window Manager thread until the X Server has finished starting up. (Harold Hunt) 3) Restructure the way that the Multi-Window Window Manager handles fatal errors. Return FALSE when we encounter an initialization error so that the server can make a clean exit, instead of aborting immediately by calling exit (1). For later errors, call pthread_exit (NULL) instead of exit (1) so that only the Multi-Window Window Manager aborts; there is no need to kill the X Server process since work could still be recovered without the window manager module. (Harold Hunt) 4) Destroy the pthread mutex and condition variables, used for synchronization in the Multi-Window Window Manager, upon X Server exit.

Is that the case or not? If you do have firewall/VNC software installed, I can assure you that it most likely IS the problem; the fact that other software works fine has no bearing on whether or not Cygwin/XFree86 will work fine. You see, Cygwin/XFree86 is heavily dependent upon TCP/IP working exactly correctly. Remember, we are not just using the Win32 API for TCP/IP... we are using Cygwin to emulate the POSIX/UNIX interface to TCP/IP using the Win32 API TCP/IP calls. This requires taking advantage of some peculiarities of the Win32 API TCP/IP interface. Can you assure us that your firewall/VNC vendor implemented each and every one of those peculiarities correctly? If not, then we just have to assume that the firewall/VNC software is the problem. We have dealt with this issue several times in the past and the correlation between Cygwin/XFree86 not working and firewall/VNC software being the blame is about 100% in cases where firewall/VNC software was ever installed on the machine. Yeah, that's another little bit about the firewall/VNC software: some of the vendors are sloppy and their uninstall routines do not replace the original Win32 API TCP/IP DLLs... they just leave their own in place. We have had people that have uninstalled firewall/VNC software and still could not get Cygwin/XFree86 to work. Then they reinstalled Windows and Cygwin/XFree86 worked. As a final test they reinstalled the firewall/VNC software and Cygwin/XFree86 broke. They uninstalled the firewall/VNC software and Cygwin/XFree86 was still broken. That was all in the mailing list archives, but I felt like writing about it for some reason. Hope that helps, Harold P.S. Oh yeah, and if you have never installed firewall/VNC software on your Windows machine, then kindly disregard the above. :) From davidf@sjsoft.com Mon Jan 20 19:44:00 2003 From: davidf@sjsoft.com (David Fraser) Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2003 19:44:00 -0000 Subject: Using XFree to replace explorer.exe as the window manager for Windows In-Reply-To: <9920848EF398D311BDC400508BF339F980A59E@ldnisp14.evolution.net> References: <9920848EF398D311BDC400508BF339F980A59E@ldnisp14.evolution.net> Message-ID: <3E2C25B3.2030306@sjsoft.com> Stuart Adamson wrote: >Yep - I've done this. > >However - some of the control panel stuff didn't work correctly afterwards >(like the program installation wizard).

Just like the window-managers for X implement a bit of functionality.

The progeny mirror has the updated setup.ini that lists 4.2.0-21 as available, but if you select it setup.exe doesn't download anything. However, the mirrors.rcn.net mirror does have the package and setup.exe does actually download it from there.

I use mouse focus under win32 (the "Activation follows mouse" option in tweakui), and my xterms are misbehaving.. each time a new window is spawned from one (for example, run notepad from an xterm), if the xterm loses focus, it spews newlines into the terminal.. The problem becomes particularly apparent in xev.. hold down enter and move the mouse out of the window, you get a stream of KeyPress/KeyRelease and then a LeaveNotify as expected.. do it again with mouse focus enabled, and the keypress/release events keep coming, despite the window losing focus... I haven't tested this in other modes (rootless, etc), but I'm fairly sure that'd be pointless anyway... just my guess, though. -Rob From huntharo@msu.edu Tue Jan 21 15:16:00 2003 From: huntharo@msu.edu (Harold L Hunt II) Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2003 15:16:00 -0000 Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Server Test 71 [DEBUG BUILD] In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Erik and JS, Okay, David seems to be having a problem with setlocale, but your problems have nothing to do with setlocale, as that function is never called. In fact, XWin.exe is crashing with both the clipboad and multi-window window manager waiting for the signal that the server has finished starting up. Therefore, I need you guys to do two things to help me debug: 1) Run with ``XWin.exe -clipboard'' and report your results. Run with ``XWin.exe -multiwindow'' and report your results. It looks like both of you run with ``XWin.exe -clipboard -multiwindow'' last time, so no need to report those results again. 2) You are both running Windows in 24 bits per pixel color, while David is running in 32 bpp and I am running in 16 bpp. Try running Windows in 16 bpp before you launch XWin.exe. This is just a hunch, but it certainly would not be the first time that a tiny little bug had something to do with the color depth.

I wonder what could be causing that problem... I didn't think that there was anything in the MultiWindow mode that touched the bits at such a low level, but now I will have to look more closely. Hmm... actually, try running with this command line (with Windows in 24 bpp) and report your results: XWin.exe -engine 1 -rootless The real problem here may be the way that the GDI DIB engine handles 24 bpp... not necessarily anything wrong with the MultiWindow mode. This seems quick realistic, since the GDI DIB engine is not used unless specified or unless you are using the MultiWindow mode, so a bug in the GDI DIB engine could have gone undiscovered for a long time.

Our VMS is 10 years old (6.0). We use UCX as TCP/IP stack. I connected to VMS via rexec, starting a command procedure for the SET DISPLAY/CREATE command. 1. I had to run xmodmap to adapt some keys. 2. What's the problem with fonts? In the 75pi directory are dec-fonts: term14, termB14, tech14, techB14. If you want more information, tell me, but you have to wait a few days.

Hopefully, this will help get you started.

This is the "dead-key" variant of the (german?) keymap. To solve it, you must change the keymap the the non-deadkey variant. If you're using the XF86Config file, you have to add the line Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys" to the Section "InputDevice" with the Identifier "Keyboard1" bye ago From colin.harrison@virgin.net Wed Jan 22 16:41:00 2003 From: colin.harrison@virgin.net (Colin Harrison) Date: Wed, 22 Jan 2003 16:41:00 -0000 Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Server Test 73 Message-ID: <200301221618.h0MGIv301437@chamonix.straightrunning.com> Hi Minor observation.

The problem was that we were not checking if the Windows window handle (hwnd) was valid (i.e., not NULL) before calling the functions GetWindowRect and GetClientRect. Of course, I was not checking the return value from those functions either. The functions failed and returned bogus values, which I then calculated a huge negative offset for the Window region from. I then passed a rectangle with negative coords to CombineRgn and it flipped out. Now we just return without doing anything if the Windows window has not been created yet. This will be in the next test release.

The GDI DIB engine (specified with the -engine 1 parameter and used automatically by the -multiwindow mode) is crashing when running on a Windows display set to 24 bit color. The GDI DIB engine works fine when running on Windows displays set to either 16 or 32 bit color. I recall seeing somewhere that the GDI DIB documentation is wrong when it comes to 24 bit DIBs and that instead of the pixels being packed, they are actually aligned on 32 bit word boundaries, just like a 32 bit DIB. Am I crazy? Did I just dream seeing this? I am suspecting that this might be the case because this would mean that I am not allocating enough space for the DIB memory, which would probably cause a crash when we try to blit portions of that memory that do not exist... but I could be wrong. Actually, I am going to test that out later by just blitting to all sections of the DIB, to make sure that all of its memory is valid. I thought that the problem lay in the parameters that we pass to X to tell it about our screen: width, height, depth, bits per pixel, bits per rgb, and the color masks. However, so far I have found no diference in the way that the GDI engine handles 32 bits per pixel and 24 bits per pixel. I have also found no difference in how the GDI and DirectDraw engines handle 24 bits per pixel color. So, I am stuck for now... if anyone has any deep insight, be sure to share it with me.

A short look into the docs, without actually trying anything out, says that scanlines must be padded to a 32-bit boundary (for all data types actually, not just 24 bits). Does the code do that?

That value is identical to the value used by the DirectDraw engine in 24 bits per pixel color mode... which it should be since DirectDraw uses a DIB for their Surface objects. As for the colormap... the MSDN docs are wishy-washy on that... the colormap for a non-pallettized DIB has to have the first three entries set to the color masks. It is not clear if the rest of the map has to have anything in it... we never have put anything in it, and I believe that other documentation (since MSDN is sometimes blantantly wrong) seems to suggest that you don't have to do anything for the rest of the color map since you aren't really using one. Unfortunately I am not on a machine that supports 24 bits per pixel right now, so I am unable to test any ideas.

Do you get these messages? Yes, I had the same problems. I performed a dir decw$terminal:menu*.pcf on VMS and found several files: Directory SYS$COMMON:[SYSFONT.DECW.100DPI] MENU10_100DPI.PCF;1 MENU12_100DPI.PCF;1 Total of 2 files.

Directory SYS$COMMON:[SYSFONT.DECW.EURO_75DPI] MENU10.PCF;1 MENU12.PCF;1 Total of 2 files. Grand total of 4 directories, 8 files. Do you have these? After I found these, I ftp'd them to /usr/local/font then I did: $ xset fp- /usr/local/font $ mkfontdir /usr/local/font $ xset fp+ /usr/local/font and tried MCR DECW$CLOCK again. I no longer got the messages but I still see the dotted square. BTW, you might want to hold off on the "enhancement" to .xmodmap-vms that I posted. It caused unexpected problems when I did added this.

It is not clear when these were added, but they are certainly no longer needed and are likely the cause of the first segfault that occurs if you debug XWin.exe under gdb. (Takashi Sawanaka) 2) Remove the condition variable used in the startup of the threaded clipboard manager and multi-window window manager; the condition variable was not needed and actually caused a race condition that could prevent either manager from starting up. Instead, just use a mutex to hold the threads until the server has started, at which point the mutex is unlocked. (Harold Hunt) 3) winmultiwindowwm.c, winclipboardthread.c - Remove calls to _Xsetlocale and replace them with calls to setlocale, since _Xsetlocale is just defined to be setlocale. (Kensuke Matsuzaki) 4) Fix a problem where the server window would shrink each time the server was reset. This problem only happened in non-rootless, non-fullscreen, non-nodecoration, and non-scrollbars modes. In other words, it only happened when you ran the X Server in a single window that had a window border but no scrollbars.

If someone want this too then he must use the config file.

I tried that and it doesn't work either. XWin starts the xdmcp session fine but then starting xwinclip gives me this: UnicodeSupport - Windows 95/98/Me Could not open display, try: 1, sleeping: 4 Could not open display, try: 2, sleeping: 4 Could not open display, try: 3, sleeping: 4 Failed opening the display, giving up So for right now, I can't get xwinclip to work either as a stand alone or as a switch on XWin.

I can not provide a complete fix. I can only tell you what I did to get it working (after a fashion). I offer the following as a means for others to get it working . First, I added commands to my xdm configuration such that xhost is run duing XDM login. In my situation (Red Hat 8) that amounted to adding a file as follows: create /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/xhosts and make it executable (as the other files in initrc.d). --------------------------- xhost inet:. xhost inet:. --------------------------- Second, I am starting Cygwin/X from the Cygwin bash shell using the startxwin.sh script as modified below: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- #! /bin/sh export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 PATH=/usr/X11R6/bin:$PATH eval `ssh-agent` # Cleanup from last run. rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix XWin -query . & sleep 60s xwinclip & exit ------------------------- Third, after running startxwin.sh, you have 60 seconds to get logged in. If you do, xwinclip starts and works great. If you do not, you get the typical error messages from xwinclip. I have not yet tried the new versions that support -clipboard. If/when I delve more deeply into this and figure out how better to set XDMCP/X security/authority, I'll let you know. It is my general feeling that this is, in part, due to my inability to figure out how to start the X display as DISPLAY .:0 (ie a "real" IP rather than 127.0.0.1:0). I sometimes hit similar problems when trying to run remote X apps from a RH console with DISPLAY as ":0" instead of ".:0" or when trying to run PC-XVision without having set the DISPLAY to .:0.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <1043448212.934.37.camel@fred.williams.etc> Thanks for replying. Since I have more time on my hands than sense, I decided to play with various versions of XWin.exe and xwinclip.exe to see if your guess is correct. Hate to tell you this, but your guess was not correct. The older version of XWin.exe does indeed work. Here's the setup: XWIN.exe (2 versions): 1) 4.2.0-15 2) Test74 xwinclip.exe (2 versions): 3) Test06 4) Test08 Batch file to start XWin and xwinclip (don't recall what the -ac switch is for): SET PATH=c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin;c:\cygwin\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\bin;%PATH% SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 start c:\cygwin\usr\x11r6\bin\xwin -ac -query 192.168.0.10 sleep 40 start /m xwinclip exit Results of 4 combinations: #1 & #3 - works #2 & #3 - does not work #1 & #4 - works #2 & #4 - does not work *Works - can copy/paste *Does not work - can not copy/paste So you can see that the version of xwinclip doesn't seem to matter. It's the version of XWin.exe that determines if my copy/paste functionality works or not. The batch file remained the same for all tests. There was a slight difference in the way xwinclip exited after closing down my xdmcp session. The newer one seems to take a lot longer to realize that the xdmcp session has closed and thus takes longer to close itself. So I think I'll stick with the older xwinclip.exe as well as the older XWin.exe. Anyway, thought you'd like to know just in case it helps to get clipboard functionality sorted out. I'll keep watching for any updates to test. Getting that -clipboard switch working would be swell! Thanks again!

The aim of this program is to provide integration between the Windows clipboard and the X clipboard, but so far the results have been less than stellar. There are several commercial X Servers for MS Windows that have several desirable features that we have been unable to reproduce: 1) Not having to reown the XA_PRIMARY atom when the selection changes in X. We copy the X selection to the Windows clipboard whenever it is changed, but the only way to receive future change notification seems to be to retake ownership of the XA_PRIMARY atom. This causes the selected text, in say xterm, to become unselected. Many programs have features that allow you to manipulate selected text, so this is obviously a problem. None of the commercial X Servers have this problem. We have tried an alternative of only stealing ownership of XA_PRIMARY when our X Server loses the focus in Windows... but non of the commercial X Servers even does that; they NEVER steal ownership of XA_PRIMARY. 2) Since we are running an X Client to perform the clipboard integration we have problems with security on XDMCP sessions. The problem is that the local xwinclip client cannot connect to the local X Server unless you run xhost within you XDMCP session and specifically allow connections from the localhost. None of the commercial X Servers for Windows requires any special handling of the clipboard support for XDMCP sessions. These two problems have been largely unsolvable for me. Recently (i.e. this week) I integrated the functionality of xwinclip into the X Server executable, with the "clipboard manager" running in a separate thread than the X Server. Now that I have done this, I started thinking that there has to be an easier, perhaps "internal", way to both monitor the updating of the selection and to prevent our clipboard manager's connection from being rejected. I remembered seeing somewhere in the X Server source code references to a "fake connection number" or something of that sort. I was wondering if there is a mechanism whereby the X Server can call functions in the X Client interface without actually having to authenticate with itself. If that was possible, it would seem that at least our authentication problem would be taken care of. So, does anyone know if that exists or have I been missing too much sleep lately? :) Any hints, tips, suggestions, or anything else related to the above two issues would be greatly appreciated.

In-Reply-To: <1043448212.934.37.camel@fred.williams.etc> Message-ID: Marc, Thanks for providing some actual data. That is very useful, even though it proved me wrong. However, you did also confirm my suspicion that you were doing something that is altogether naughty and impure: you are using the -ac command-line parameter. The -ac parameter basically tells XWin.exe to drop its pants to the LOWEST bidder; that parameter lets any X Client connect, including your X girlfriend's. :) (sorry, rotten pun, I will stop) So the -ac parameter is at least part of the equation, but I find it interesting that later versions of XWin.exe made xwinclip fail to connect. I would really like to see the results of Test72 and Test73, as the clipboard functionality was integrated in Test73. If Test72 connects then I have introduced a bug that is not disabled when you leave out the -clipboard parameter. If you have a chance, please run those tests. Thanks for testing, Harold -----Original Message----- From: cygwin-xfree-owner@cygwin.com [mailto:cygwin-xfree-owner@cygwin.com]On Behalf Of Marc Williams Sent: Friday, January 24, 2003 5:44 PM To: Cygwin list Subject: RE: xwinclip usage? Thanks for replying. Since I have more time on my hands than sense, I decided to play with various versions of XWin.exe and xwinclip.exe to see if your guess is correct. Hate to tell you this, but your guess was not correct. The older version of XWin.exe does indeed work. Here's the setup: XWIN.exe (2 versions): 1) 4.2.0-15 2) Test74 xwinclip.exe (2 versions): 3) Test06 4) Test08 Batch file to start XWin and xwinclip (don't recall what the -ac switch is for): SET PATH=c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin;c:\cygwin\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\bin;%PATH% SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 start c:\cygwin\usr\x11r6\bin\xwin -ac -query 192.168.0.10 sleep 40 start /m xwinclip exit Results of 4 combinations: #1 & #3 - works #2 & #3 - does not work #1 & #4 - works #2 & #4 - does not work *Works - can copy/paste *Does not work - can not copy/paste So you can see that the version of xwinclip doesn't seem to matter. It's the version of XWin.exe that determines if my copy/paste functionality works or not. The batch file remained the same for all tests. There was a slight difference in the way xwinclip exited after closing down my xdmcp session. The newer one seems to take a lot longer to realize that the xdmcp session has closed and thus takes longer to close itself. So I think I'll stick with the older xwinclip.exe as well as the older XWin.exe. Anyway, thought you'd like to know just in case it helps to get clipboard functionality sorted out. I'll keep watching for any updates to test. Getting that -clipboard switch working would be swell! Thanks again!

The server is at the point where it draws most things correctly usings only spans, but we need to iron out the last few bugs before we can start implementing translations of some of the X graphics functions into GDI graphics functions. You can download the last work that we did on Native GDI from the SourceForge project that we used to host the development: http://sourceforge.net/projects/xoncygwin/ I am sure that we will get back around to Native GDI after the MultiWindow code and the Clipboard Manager code stabilize. On the other hand, Alan Hourihane might appreciate anyone willing to look at the code right now. He understands drawing spans much better than I do, but he would still appreciate some help fixing those last few glitches with our spans routines.

My previous bat file - which I've been successfully using for months - looked like this: SET PATH=c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin;c:\cygwin\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\bin;%PATH% SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 start c:\cygwin\usr\x11r6\bin\xwin -ac -query 192.168.0.10 sleep 40 start /m xwinclip exit 1) Using this exact bat file with the latest XWin.exe and xwinclip.exe ***DOES*** work. (XWin-test74 and xwinclip-08). Just as before. 2) By simply removing -ac and changing nothing else, XWin produces my xcmcp session fine but xwinclip gives the following: UnicodeSupport - Windows 95/98/Me Xlib: connection to "127.0.0.1:0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified Could not open display, try: 1, sleeping: 4 Xlib: connection to "127.0.0.1:0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified Could not open display, try: 2, sleeping: 4 Xlib: connection to "127.0.0.1:0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified Could not open display, try: 3, sleeping: 4 Failed opening the display, giving up I tried this with several versions of XWin going back to Test65 and two versions of xwinclip with similar, if not identical, results. It would seem I need that -ac switch. 3) Since my ultimate goal is to be able to run with the -clipboard switch, I tried running the following bat file (notice the switches) with Test74: SET PATH=c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin;c:\cygwin\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\bin;%PATH% SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 start c:\cygwin\usr\x11r6\bin\xwin -query 192.168.0.10 -clipboard exit This produces no obvious errors but doesn't allow for copy/paste to work. 4) Modifying the preceding bat file by adding the -ac switch causes my xdmcp session to behave strangely - my login screen appears but upon completing the user name and password and hitting Enter, my session disappears. What reappears a few seconds later is my login screen once again. I can continue this cycle (logging in with each new login screen) until I get a fatal Windows error. So it would seem that I am stuck running the latest XWin and xwinclip the old fashioned way, stand alone, for now. I need to be running like #1 i.e. with the -ac switch. n.b.

Just as before. 2) By simply removing -ac and changing nothing else, XWin produces my xcmcp session fine but xwinclip gives the following: UnicodeSupport - Windows 95/98/Me Xlib: connection to "127.0.0.1:0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified Could not open display, try: 1, sleeping: 4 Xlib: connection to "127.0.0.1:0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified Could not open display, try: 2, sleeping: 4 Xlib: connection to "127.0.0.1:0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified Could not open display, try: 3, sleeping: 4 Failed opening the display, giving up I tried this with several versions of XWin going back to Test65 and two versions of xwinclip with similar, if not identical, results. It would seem I need that -ac switch. 3) Since my ultimate goal is to be able to run with the -clipboard switch, I tried running the following bat file (notice the switches) with Test74: SET PATH=c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin;c:\cygwin\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\bin;%PATH% SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 start c:\cygwin\usr\x11r6\bin\xwin -query 192.168.0.10 -clipboard exit This produces no obvious errors but doesn't allow for copy/paste to work. 4) Modifying the preceding bat file by adding the -ac switch causes my xdmcp session to behave strangely - my login screen appears but upon completing the user name and password and hitting Enter, my session disappears. What reappears a few seconds later is my login screen once again. I can continue this cycle (logging in with each new login screen) until I get a fatal Windows error. So it would seem that I am stuck running the latest XWin and xwinclip the old fashioned way, stand alone, for now. I need to be running like #1 i.e. with the -ac switch. n.b.

But then, I do not know much about that. What I do know is that you have to restart kdm in order for those changes to take effect. The easiest way to do that, short of restarting your machine, is to drop to run level 3, then go back to run level 5. You do that by running: init 3 [wait about a minute] init 5 One side question: you DO see a graphical login screen when you sit down at your linux machine, right? If not, you aren't running kdm so XDMCP connections are not being accepted simply because you are not running a program that accepts them.

Um, what's Edmunds? ...googling... Hmm. A Cygwin CD. How novel. >Is there anyway to buy this on CD? I only have a slow dial-up >installation, so downloading is not practical. Sure, it's practical. Start the download going before you go to bed. Even if it fails, you'll be partway there. Do that for a couple of days and you'll have what you need. If you start now, you might even get it faster than the amount of time it would take to ship a CD. >Also are there any books and manuals on cywin? You found the web site, right? Some of it is there. All of it is available via either the "man" command or the "info" command right on your computer. If you want printed documentation, then, AFAIK, the answer is know. Unless there's a site out there shipping that, too. cgf From huntharo@msu.edu Sun Jan 26 13:54:00 2003 From: huntharo@msu.edu (Harold L Hunt II) Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2003 13:54:00 -0000 Subject: Can't Get XDMCP Login on Mandrake 9.0 Box from XP References: <002a01c2c4f0$593732a0$0400a8c0@WRECK20> Message-ID: <3E33803A.1040901@msu.edu> Curt, First, lets just double-check that Mandrake 9.0 is still using kdm and that your machine was configured to use kdm: [harold@foo harold]$ ps -A | grep .dm 31622 ? 00:00:00 kdm 31637 ? 00:00:00 kdm 31651 ? 00:00:00 kdm_greet So, run ``ps -A | grep .dm'' as above. If some other ?dm is listed, then that would explain why editing the kdm config file didn't change anything. Harold Curt Lindner wrote: > OK, I'm really confused now.

I will see how AOL (ugh) takes to a night-long download - I use AOL because I used to change location a lot, and they have our website. I finally suceeded getting XWindows on Cygwin by the simple expedient of installing ALL packages from the Edmunds CD, too many, but I did not know which of the long list were really needed. Are you interested in dynamic-system simulation? If so, look at my web page http://members.aol.com/gatmkorn DESIRE runs under Windows, and I now have a good Linux version, which is yours for free if you are interested in this field. The latest version uses gcc 3.2 optimized for Pentium 4, so my Pentium 4 is now ALMOST as fast as my AMD Athlon! Linux will also be the easiestway to compile for the new 64-bit AMD processors. Edmunds is a very good inexpensive source for Linux CDs. Best regards, and thanks again Granino A.

Since that is the case, no display manager needs to be running until that user logs out. When the graphical login prompt appears, press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a console, login, then run the ps command. Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 (I think, maybe F8) to get back to the graphical login. There should be some sort of Mandrake configuration utility that will let you tell it to stop logging a user in automatically on startup. Look around for that.

However, I still am unable to get a login prompt from the XP machine using "xwin -query [mandrake] -from [xp]". I still only get the blank X windows screen with the "x" cursor. Also, I just spent 30 minutes looking at every possible configuration program/menu option for dealing with users and login, and the only option I saw for automatically logging in was unchecked. But, it does automatically log me in. Harold, you've been really responsive, and I certainly appreciate that. But, I must also say I'm surprised that these tools don't work better with one another out of the box, so to speak. I guess I'm just spoiled by Microsoft. If it takes me this long to get this working, just think how long it will take to set up Samba, mail servers, web servers, database, etc. Thanks again, -Curt From: "Harold L Hunt II" To: Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2003 13:05:31 -0500 Subject: RE: Can't Get XDMCP Login on Mandrake 9.0 Box from XP Reply-to: cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com Curt, The mistake you made while installing Mandrake 9.0 is to tell it to automatically log on a certain user when the machine starts up.

I'm fairly certain that it was people like that who were the main root cause of the spread of the code red worm. Easier != better. Some computer functions, particularly server functions, actually take a little time to learn, whether it's MS, Linux, or VMS. > If it takes me this long to get this working, just think how long it will > take to set up Samba, mail servers, web servers, database, etc. Every one of those services comes with a learning curve. I don't know about you, but I wasn't born knowing any of the material required to pass my MCSE. It took time. Same goes for Linux. It probably is true that MS makes their server installation easy enough that a chimpanzee could do it. That doesn't make it right however. Setting up most MS server installations *correctly* takes time and skills. Same with Linux. When I first started learning about Linux, I chose not to learn from a classroom. I bought a book. Red Hat Bible, if memory serves. Then I subscribed to a dozen or more mailing lists. Then I performed a ton of googling. And I read: man pages, web sites, etc. Anything I could get my hands on. And you know what? In a couple months time I had all those services (and more) you mentioned running and running well. Was the effort worth it? For me, yes. And by an order of magnitude at that. If I inferred a meaning from your post that wasn't intended, my apologies.

It is not normally needed. Hey, here is a question that usually has something to do with people having problems that I forgot to ask: do you have more than one network card (even if it is not being used) in your Windows machine? Do you have a built in NIC and an add-on NIC? Are you using a wireless NIC? If your network configuration on your Window machine is anything other than a single, wired, network card then we need to know about it. Cygwin often has problems determining which network card is the default network card in those situations and there can even be problems finding the NIC in the list of NICs that the machine has. I have a feeling that we are close to solving this problem, so don't give up yet.

Since that is the case, no display manager needs to be running until that user logs out. When the graphical login prompt appears, press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a console, login, then run the ps command. Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 (I think, maybe F8) to get back to the graphical login. There should be some sort of Mandrake configuration utility that will let you tell it to stop logging a user in automatically on startup. Look around for that.

This after a cold reboot. When the Mandrake box boots up, it goes right to the KDE desktop. When I log out of that, it drops to a console type view, then, after a moment, goes to a graphical login prompt that says "Welcome to [machine name]" at the top, and has options for user/pass, session type, a menu option to restart the x server, and a shutdown option. I'm using a straight install from the Mandrake 9.0 ISO images, and I tried to select every possible package during the setup process. I just assumed that kdm would be running, as if it were some underpinning of kde. Remember, I don't know anything about Linux! I have used eXceed in the past to log into Sun and IBM unix boxes, so I understand the process, although that was almost 10 years ago.

Or you might be running kdm, on port 177, but not allowing any actual accesses. I don't know about kdm, but its daddy xdm has a configuration file /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess for that sort of thing. Try running: # netstat -plun | grep 177 ...and see if kdm is listening; if it is, you have an error in your permissions/configuration. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John Buttery (Web page temporarily unavailable) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

But, there might be some complications here. The XP machine is connected to a switch. The Mandrake box is connected to a hub that is connected to the switch. Both have hard wired IP addresses in the 192.168.0.x range. the switch is connected to a negear DSL router that acts as the gateway at 192.168.0.1. Remember, I can get an xterm sesssion going if I use the basic startup batch file, set xhost +, telnet to the Mandrake box (reachable either by IP or by machine name), export DISPLAY=[XP IP], then run xterm, emacs, etc. I think I never asked one of the questions that I started with this list for. Since I have to do an xhost + to get through security, where in the cygwin-xfree directories can I set this as the default behavior? I'm behind a router that is reasonably secure, so I'm not worried about folks getting in. -Curt From: "Harold L Hunt II" To: Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2003 22:14:23 -0500 Subject: RE: Can't Get XDMCP Login on Mandrake 9.0 Box from XP Curt, Try leaving off the -from parameter. It is not normally needed. Hey, here is a question that usually has something to do with people having problems that I forgot to ask: do you have more than one network card (even if it is not being used) in your Windows machine? Do you have a built in NIC and an add-on NIC? Are you using a wireless NIC? If your network configuration on your Window machine is anything other than a single, wired, network card then we need to know about it. Cygwin often has problems determining which network card is the default network card in those situations and there can even be problems finding the NIC in the list of NICs that the machine has. I have a feeling that we are close to solving this problem, so don't give up yet.

However, I still am unable to get a login prompt from the XP machine using "xwin -query [mandrake] -from [xp]". I still only get the blank X windows screen with the "x" cursor. Also, I just spent 30 minutes looking at every possible configuration program/menu option for dealing with users and login, and the only option I saw for automatically logging in was unchecked. But, it does automatically log me in. Harold, you've been really responsive, and I certainly appreciate that. But, I must also say I'm surprised that these tools don't work better with one another out of the box, so to speak. I guess I'm just spoiled by Microsoft. If it takes me this long to get this working, just think how long it will take to set up Samba, mail servers, web servers, database, etc. Thanks again, -Curt From: "Harold L Hunt II" To: Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2003 13:05:31 -0500 Subject: RE: Can't Get XDMCP Login on Mandrake 9.0 Box from XP Reply-to: cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com Curt, The mistake you made while installing Mandrake 9.0 is to tell it to automatically log on a certain user when the machine starts up. Since that is the case, no display manager needs to be running until that user logs out. When the graphical login prompt appears, press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a console, login, then run the ps command. Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 (I think, maybe F8) to get back to the graphical login. There should be some sort of Mandrake configuration utility that will let you tell it to stop logging a user in automatically on startup. Look around for that.

This after a cold reboot. When the Mandrake box boots up, it goes right to the KDE desktop. When I log out of that, it drops to a console type view, then, after a moment, goes to a graphical login prompt that says "Welcome to [machine name]" at the top, and has options for user/pass, session type, a menu option to restart the x server, and a shutdown option. I'm using a straight install from the Mandrake 9.0 ISO images, and I tried to select every possible package during the setup process. I just assumed that kdm would be running, as if it were some underpinning of kde. Remember, I don't know anything about Linux! I have used eXceed in the past to log into Sun and IBM unix boxes, so I understand the process, although that was almost 10 years ago.

You are using "Memphis", which is a beta (i.e., not supported) pre-release version of Windows 98: http://news.com.com/2100-1001-201734.html?legacy=cnet We cannot possibly support the various beta versions of software the Microsoft is constantly releasing. I am sorry, but I think you are going to have to bite the bullet on this one and upgrade (or downgrade, I don't care) to one of Windows 95, Window 98, Windows Me, Windows NT Workstation 4.0, Windows 2000, or Windows XP. I would not doubt it one bit if the reporting of information for the installed network interfaces changed slightly or even significantly from Memphis betas to the actual Windows 98 release. Anyone that tried supporting Windows 95 knows that it was notorious for losing or corrupting its own network configuration settings, so I am sure that a lot of work was done in Windows 98 to make those configuration settings less prone to corruption. With all that being said, I am sure that someone will chime in that all Windows 98 versions released in Europe say Memphis when you run winipcfg... in which case I will have to eat my words. I'll have you know that I like to eat my words, so come on and tell me :) Harold Hans Zimmerman wrote: > Alexander Gottwald wrote: > >>Hans Zimmerman wrote: >> >> >>>The output from ls_netdev-w95.exe >>>ls_netdev $Id: ls_netdev.c,v 1.6 2002/11/10 16:14:32 ago Exp >>>$ >>>OS Version: Windows 9x 4.0 Build 67306684 B >>>Querying devices using ioctl >>>lo: family=TCP/IP (0) addr=127.0.0.1 >>>lo: metric=1 mtu=3924 >>>Querying devices using internal function >>>ifname: "0001" >>>driver: "NetTrans\0005" >>>IPAddress: "192.20.40.134", IPMask: "255.255.255.0" >>>lo: family=TCP/IP (0) addr=127.0.0.1 >> >>Can you send me the output of ipconfig? >> >>please check if there is a registry key: >> > > \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\System\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\Class\\Net\\0001 > >>I guess the references are out of sync.

You should be using instead: start XWin -multiwindow -clipboard Now, you also need to REM out any windowmanager (twm, mwm, etc.) and you need to REM out xwinclip. I suspect that you are starting xwinclip, which is causing a crash when you also use -clipboard.

You changed DISPLAY=127.0.0.0:0.0 to DISPLAY=:0.0 and you told XWin.exe -nolisten tcp. That is not a small change! Both the Clipboard Manager and the MultiWindow Window Manager try to connect to the local server via TCP/IP on 127.0.0.1:display.screen One of my messages from a few days back says that we were changing from connecting to (essentially) :0.0 to (essentially) 127.0.0.1:0.0. We did that because UNIX domain sockets did not seem to be working correctly for some users. Thus, you are going to have to drop the "-nolisten tcp". You can keep DISPLAY=:0.0, but you have to get rid of "-nolisten tcp". You can watch the mailing list to see if we ever change the CM and MWWM back to connecting to :0.0.

And .xinitrc was just a copy of /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc. I added a line at the beginning to echo the path, but the never gets executed. So I don't think the error is caused by a problem with ~/.xinitrc (aside from the fact that the same the safe file gets sourced when I successfully run startx from /usr/X11R6/bin). I think it might be the xinit executable itself, since that's the only code that runs before .xinitrc. I presume that people have tried startx from their home directory and got it working? Just looking for a few responses as a sanity check. Thanks.

OK, I lied. There is still some occasional problem where closing one (non-XFree) window will cause the focus to switch insanely between the XFree windows.

This is a synchronization with all the fixes that have been applied from Server Test Series - Test 69 through Server Test Series - Test 77. These fixes are summarized below: 1) Fix memory leaks in rootless mode. (Kensuke Matsuzaki) 2) The test releases, and all future stable releases, are now built with GCC 3.2. There were no problems encountered when switching to the new compiler version. (Harold Hunt) 3) EXPERIMENTAL: New multiwindow mode (invoked with the "-multiwindow" command-line parameter) that creates each top-level X window in a Microsoft Windows window. Note that there are still debugging options on in this release, so do not expect multiwindow mode to be polished enough for everyday use. (Kensuke Matsuzaki) 4) Attempt at fixing the segfault on startup that some users are reporting. (Kensuke Matsuzaki) 5) New "-multimonitor" command-line parameter that is used to tell XWin.exe to display across all available displays. (Nick Crabtree) 6) winmultiwindowwindow.c - Add an evil, naughty, ugly, shameless, and worthless hack to the multi-window mode to enable the X Non-Rectangular Shape extension. This will need to be evaluated and fixed by other developers. (Harold Hunt) 7) Preliminary integration of the xwinclip functionality into the main server executable. This functionality is accessible via the "-clipboard" command-line parameter. (Harold Hunt) 8) Delay the execution of the Multi-Window Window Manager thread until the X Server has finished starting up. (Harold Hunt) 9) Restructure the way that the Multi-Window Window Manager handles fatal errors. Return FALSE when we encounter an initialization error so that the server can make a clean exit, instead of aborting immediately by calling exit (1). For later errors, call pthread_exit (NULL) instead of exit (1) so that only the Multi-Window Window Manager aborts; there is no need to kill the X Server process since work could still be recovered without the window manager module. (Harold Hunt) 10) Destroy the pthread mutex and condition variables, used for synchronization in the Multi-Window Window Manager, upon X Server exit. (Harold Hunt) 11) xc/lib/xtrans/Xtransutil.c - Remove Cygwin-specific defines of fchown and fchmod to chown and chmod, respectively. It is not clear when these were added, but they are certainly no longer needed and are likely the cause of the first segfault that occurs if you debug XWin.exe under gdb. (Takashi Sawanaka) 12) Remove the condition variable used in the startup of the threaded clipboard manager and multi-window window manager; the condition variable was not needed and actually caused a race condition that could prevent either manager from starting up. Instead, just use a mutex to hold the threads until the server has started, at which point the mutex is unlocked. (Harold Hunt) 13) winmultiwindowwm.c, winclipboardthread.c - Remove calls to _Xsetlocale and replace them with calls to setlocale, since _Xsetlocale is just defined to be setlocale. (Kensuke Matsuzaki) 14) Fix a problem where the server window would shrink each time the server was reset. This problem only happened in non-rootless, non-fullscreen, non-nodecoration, and non-scrollbars modes. In other words, it only happened when you ran the X Server in a single window that had a window border but no scrollbars. (Harold Hunt) 15) winshaddd[nl].c/winReleasePrimarySurfaceShadowDD[NL] - Check that pddsPrimary is not NULL before calling IDirectDrawSurface[2|4]_SetClipper. This most likely showed up as a crash during video depth changes. (Alexander Gottwald) 16) winshaddd.c - Change a few accidental IDirectDrawSurface4 references to IDirectDrawSurface2. (Harold Hunt) 17) winshadgdi.c/winAllocateFBShadowGDI - Fix how dwStride was being calculated, which was causing a crash on startup with both the -engine 1 and -multiwindow command-line parameters. (Harold Hunt) 18) Only call setlocale () once per process. This was causing crashes on startup when using both the -clipboard and -multiwindow command-line parameters. (Kensuke Matsuzaki, Harold Hunt) -- Harold Hunt To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'XFree86-xserv' from the 'XFree86' category. You may need to click the "Full" button if it doesn't show up. Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. In the US, ftp://archive.progeny.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Japan, ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/gnu/gnu-win32/ is usually up-to-date. In DK, http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror.

When I compile xfig 3.2.4 with xaw3d, it reports that many "_Xt..." functions are redifined in both the Xaw3d library and the Xt library. I then downloaded the xaw3d 1.5 source and compiled it by my self. After I replaced the /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.a file with the new compiled file. Now I can compile xfig with xaw3d without problem. Therefore, the xaw3d coming with cygwin might be somewhat broken. This is how I compiled xaw3d source on cygwin: 1. Download it from ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/widgets/Xaw3d/R6.3/Xaw3d-1.5.tar.gz 2. Change the Imakefile by (1) add EXTRA_INCLUDES = -I. (2) (optional) Uncomment EXTRA_DEFINES = -DARROW_SCROLLBAR -DUSEGRAY 3.

Thanks for the good work. There is, however, some undesirable behaviour with Test 77, which is not present in XWin-4.2.0-20. 1. I use the virtual desktop virtuawin. When I switch from another desktop to the one containing the xterms, I get incessant switching between xterms if there is more than one. This behaviour was reported by others, I think. 2. I have 2 xterms, one partially covering the other. If I click the one underneath to bring it to the front, the overlap area comes up only in outline. I can still see the material in the other xterm underneath. It is as if the xterm brought up is transparent on the overlap area! These 2 problems are not observed with XWin-4.2.0-20. Let me know what details you need to know in connection with these two problems. Because of them, I normally still use XWin-4.2.0-20, manually starting xwinclip if necessary. Although I am not 100% sure, but I think every X server later than XWin-4.2.0-20 that I tried exhibits similar problems.

The stripping should not have any effect on your problem. So your problem has only to do with the -multiwindow mode. I think Kensuke needs to look at this. There may be some sort of race that is happening in the multiwindow code and the reproducibility of the bugs may be rather random. I might look at it, but I won't have a lot of time until next week.

No window come up at all. You probably have an older version of the XFree86-xserv package that doesn't have the MultiWindow code in it. Try running the Cygwin setup program and upgrading. > BTW, there's no way to reply a message in the browser? > I have to subscribe the mailing list and send messages > by emails? No, and yes, respectively. The answer to your other question is that twm doesn't resize windows the way you're probably used to from other window managers; you can't just grab any side or corner and stretch. You resize windows in twm by clicking on the resize box in the upper right corner of the window (aka on the right end of the titlebar) and dragging out from there. Note that if you want to make the window smaller, you have to make it larger first; in other words, drag it out larger and then with the mouse button still down, drag it back smaller. It sounds more complicated than it is. Oh, and don't say twm isn't configurable just because _you_ don't know how. :) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John Buttery (Web page temporarily unavailable) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I emailed Harold my startup script file earlier. The peculiar thing is that Xwin-4.2.0-20 (pre -clipboard release) does not suffer from these problems when I run it in multiwindow mode. It seems to me that this perhaps has to do with how the clipboard code affects the multiwindow mode. I want to mention also that with XWin-4.2.0-25, sometimes I would not get the overlapping xterm transparency right away, but after virtual desktop switching, it will invariably come on.

I'm redirecting this to the proper mailing list. I also suggest that reading http://cygwin.com/bugs.html will be a good first step to debugging the problem. cgf >> via ssh, I get the following message in the xterm: >> bash: /usr/bin/ssh: Permission denied >> >> then another message appears in a window with the message: >> A required .DLL file, CYGCRYPTO-0.9.7.DLL was not found.
