I don't use the toolbar, so I would have the blind keys working fine at zero cost.

Sounds like a compose sequence - and if so, it's puzzling that passing key-presses from different levels in the widget hierarchy would interfere with that. The main difference with the toolbar configuration is that xterm's using a form to contain the toolbar and the vt100 window. The buttons take care of themselves, but that area to the right of the buttons is dead. To make it somewhat friendlier, xterm adds the actions used for the vt100 window (except for the ones related to the mouse) to the toolbar area. I omitted the mouse-related ones since it seems that they'd interfere with the menus. I also did the same for the scrollbar widget (since keystrokes there used to be lost - it would seem that you could reproduce your problem also by looking at the behaviour around the scrollbar). -- Thomas E.

Hi Thomas, yes, with mouse over the scrollbar the problem is reproducable. A blind key is a key that needs to be followed by another key to produce something. The problem here is, when running vi in an xterm and the mouse slowly (unnoticed) moves over the scrollbar or out of the xterm, and you want to jump to mark "a, you need to enter `a, that is in keystrokes 1. blind key ` 2. space 3. letter a, the bug will drop the `, so you will not end up with the cursor at mark "a, but you will move the cursor one character forward and there enter append mode. Which is something totally different than the intention. Or if you type :%s/^x/y/ You will really get :%s/ x/y Hopefully you notice it before pressing Enter ... Exaples refer to a German keyboard layout. Thank you for looking into this.

WHAT'S NEW IN X11R7.6? ====================== * Over 260 binary packages have been updated, including the latest upstream improvements and bug fixes, all built with GCC 4.5. * The xorg-server package has been rebuilt to match the updated libGL. * The xcb-util libraries have been rearranged upstream. This should be transparent to the end user as long as these packages are updated simultaneously. * Windows NT4 is no longer supported. FURTHER DEVELOPMENT =================== Development of Cygwin/X is primarily focused on the XWin server; most other components are extremely stable and work OOTB. Anyone who despaired of touching the old monolithic tree will find things much easier with modular packages. If you want to see XWin stay current and add new features, then WE NEED YOU. Here are some of the projects that could be worked on: * Update the Cygwin/X website. * Implement hardware-accelerated AIGLX support in desktop mode. * Implement Extended Window Manager Hints in multiwindow mode. * Implement the Composite extension in multiwindow mode. * Implement the XVideo extension. * Implement newest XRandR protocol. * Continue development of WindowsWM extension and xwinwm. FEEDBACK ======== All comments, questions, bug reports, patches, discussion, etc. should take place on the cygwin-xfree list. CREDITS ======= Jon Turney for continuing to develop xorg-server, pushing our existing patches upstream and contributing many new patches to this release. Numerous users for their bug reports and suggestions during the 7.5 cycle. And whomever else I may have inadvertently neglected to mention. Enjoy!

Please try test releases and report problems to the Cygwin/X mailing list. Testing helps ensure good releases! In addition to upstream fixes and improvements [1][2], this contains the following cygwin-specific changes since 1.10.3-1: * Make XWin support the same XKB private actions for grab debugging as XOrg * Minimize redraw events after resizing/moving windows in multiwindow mode (Thanks to Oliver Schmidt for patch) * Fix AltGr key sometimes firing an additional Ctrl-L key on non-US keyboards (Thanks to Oliver Schmidt for patch) * Handle some more Motif window decoration hints Due to the way we currently work around some linkage problems with Mesa due to PE/COFF limitations, you should also upgrade libGL1 to 7.10.3-1 or you may experience X server crashes when using OpenGL applications which use indirect rendering. 130a6308ee66f99dd0e910b57a08d0fd *xorg-server-1.11.1-1.tar.bz2 02f025b88d081a3b034864191381b02a *xorg-server-dmx-1.11.1-1.tar.bz2 75af84d8b1da33493005ccd390ceda19 *xorg-server-1.11.1-1-src.tar.bz2 [1] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-announce/2011-August/001729.html [2] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-announce/2011-September/001736.html -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/ From yselkowitz@users.sourceforge.net Wed Oct 5 22:21:00 2011 From: yselkowitz@users.sourceforge.net (Yaakov (Cygwin/X)) Date: Wed, 05 Oct 2011 22:21:00 -0000 Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xterm-275b-1 In-Reply-To: <20111005040326.F41339@mail101.his.com> References: <20111005040326.F41339@mail101.his.com> Message-ID: The following package has been updated for the Cygwin distribution: *** xterm-275b-1 xterm is a terminal emulator for the X Window System.

It has probably to do with the mouse pad on the lap, as the problem is gone if I use an external mouse. If it is of interest for anyone I can provide relevant logs. Which ones, in addition to cygcheck.out and Xwin.0.log I dont' know, but just let me know.

Yes, I think you are correct. A hook has the advantage that X event dispatch will continue to occur during all the modal event loops that Windows has, rather than just the ones we have noticed :-) -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/ From jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk Thu Oct 13 13:27:00 2011 From: jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk (Jon TURNEY) Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2011 13:27:00 -0000 Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xorg-server-1.11.1-1 (TEST) In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <4E96E72D.80707@dronecode.org.uk> On 05/10/2011 21:09, Jon TURNEY wrote: > The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution: > > *** xorg-server-1.11.1-1 > *** xorg-server-dmx-1.11.1-1 > > These packages contain XWin and the other X.Org X11 servers. > > This is the first release of the xserver 1.11 series.

No, that's not the reason. The file mkshortcut should be trying to create is "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Cygwin-X\XWin Server.lnk" i.e. adding the relative path "Cygwin-X\XWin Server.lnk" to your all users start menu programs directory. I guess for some unknown reason, mkshortcut's use of cygwin_conv_to_win32_path() thinks "Cygwin-X\XWin Server" is an absolute path, rather than a relative one, and converts it to an absolute windows path.

You can download my currently used version of XWin.exe from: http://min.us/mgtjlVdju This version includes also my other patches (e.g. experimental redrawing of windows while they are resized/moved, see http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2011-08/msg00049.html). I'm using this version daily, so it can be considered stable for my personal usage patterns ;-) However if the redrawing patch causes problem on your setup I could prepare a version without this patch. For me the most missing feature from the official Cygwin's x-server is the possibility to programmatically raise windows in multi window mode, so I'm happy to hear that others are interested in this feature too.

It works fine for me, so my best guess is that this is related to your other X problems. But you might try a recent Cygwin snapshot, on the off chance that that helps.

How about... xterm... yepp this works too, with readline and command completion, emacs-X11, yepp, shell process forked nicely, works. So many problems fixed with just this one little change! Thanks again, Gustav ________________________________ From: Pierre A. Humblet Subject: RE: exim-4.76-1 fails to remove lock from spooler on delivery Hi Gustav, [...] 1)Go to http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ 2)Download the latest cygwin1-XXX.dll.bz2 (perhaps ask Corinna for one that is known to work. In my experience most do.) 3)Bunzip it, chmod it to executable by all and place it in /bin. 4)Kill all Cygwin processes 5)From Windows (cmd or explorer) rename the existing cygwin1.dll to something else, and conversely rename the new cygwin1-XXX.dll to cygwin1.dll 6)Restart Cygwin In case of trouble reverse step 5. There is no downside risk.

Typing dead key ` apostrophe > then press letter "a" while the mouse pointer is over the scrollbar area of an xterm? yes - I can reproduce it. Actually once I was made aware of the issue, I could see in my mind where the problem might lie. But I just verified it since you reminded me (on one of my Linux machines). My idea about the problem is that since xterm has setup translations (which capture the input) on more than one widget (without appearing to address this special case), that it might be that there's a better point in the widget to attach the translations to. This was discussed a little late in the #277 cycle to want to hold that up, so I had in mind to spend some time investigating a solution for it during #278. -- Thomas E.

"XTerm-color" includes "XTerm". I'd modify the latter.

The "XTerm" is used, but "XTerm-color" is not. Copying the color stuff into the "XTerm" file works, but I can't figure out how to set default font to TrueType, and default font size. Anyone?

The short answer is ./configure with --disable-glx-tls (In general I would suggest always looking at the .cygport file and checking you understand if you need to use the configuration options used there :-) Slightly longer answer is because XWin links with mesa's libGL to provide the glapi functions (to avoid other problems which PE/COFF linkage causes us), XWin needs to be built with the same TLS-ness as libGL. Since X server 1.10, X has changed from disabling TLS by default to autodetecting if TLS is available, but mesa doesn't build with TLS enabled on cygwin for reasons I never got around to looking into... -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/ From jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk Mon Oct 31 19:22:00 2011 From: jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk (Jon TURNEY) Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2011 19:22:00 -0000 Subject: -nolisten tcp -multiwindow combination crashes in XWin startup In-Reply-To: <1319954770.81475.YahooMailNeo@web114412.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> References: <1319954770.81475.YahooMailNeo@web114412.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> Message-ID: <4EAEB486.5090002@dronecode.org.uk> On 30/10/2011 06:06, Dave A wrote: > Upon upgrading to version 1.11.1-1 built 2011-10-05, I found my usual startup of X no longer succeeds. > > It appears it's a combination of -nolisten tcp and -multiwindow that leads to the problem.

I have tried this on two somewhat similar machines - 5 years difference in hardware, but both XP Pro up-to-date on Microsoft Update, and both running the cygwin versions present on mirror.mcs.anl.gov as of this weekend - both were upgraded, then after both were, I checked that there were no further upgrades posted in between.?

I don't know if that line got generated but lost in output redirections, or if this way of starting X is maybe seeing yet a different problem.? This line seems similar to that reported by Denis Beauchemin, Wed, 19 Oct 2011 14:17:54 +0000. Any suggestions re how else to get the backtrace you desire, or any other info that might be helpful? --- The below were run within a shell within Emacs running on an X server other than :0.? The behavior looks the same as when running in a Windows CMD shell, except here the XWin output seems to be printing locally rather than going to XWin.0.log.? The "@@@@@@@"s are hand-edited whiteouts. The note below about Zonealarm is "interesting".? No Zonealarm, tho do have McAfee's firewall enabled. The run under gdb seemed to startup ok; I closed up X after a little while via "Exit..." on the taskbar icon. _> XWin -multiwindow -nolisten tcp Welcome to the XWin X Server Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 1.11.1.0 OS: Windows XP Service Pack 3 [Windows NT 5.1 build 2600] (Win32) Package: version 1.11.1-1 built 2011-10-05 XWin was started with the following command line: XWin -multiwindow -nolisten tcp (--) Windows reports only 2 mouse buttons, defaulting to -emulate3buttons (II) xorg.conf is not supported (II) See http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html for more information LoadPreferences: /home/@@@@@@@/.XWinrc not found LoadPreferences: Loading /etc/X11/system.XWinrc LoadPreferences: Done parsing the configuration file... winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw installed, allowing ShadowDD winDetectSupportedEngines - Windows NT, allowing PrimaryDD winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed, allowing ShadowDDNL winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 0000001f winTaskbarInit - Could not get SHGetPropertyStoreForWindow address winSetEngine - Multi Window or Rootless => ShadowGDI winScreenInit - Using Windows display depth of 32 bits per pixel winAllocateFBShadowGDI - Creating DIB with width: 1280 height: 800 depth: 32 winFinishScreenInitFB - Masks: 00ff0000 0000ff00 000000ff winInitVisualsShadowGDI - Masks 00ff0000 0000ff00 000000ff BPRGB 8 d 24 bpp 32 winInitMultiWindowWM - Calling pthread_mutex_lock () winMultiWindowXMsgProc - Calling pthread_mutex_lock () Screen 0 added at virtual desktop coordinate (0,0).

Either used alone > seems to work ok, the two together yield the crash. Thanks very much for reporting this problem. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce it, and the stacktrace is not as helpful as it might be as the crash is occurring in a dll, but the stacktrace doesn't record which dll loaded at what address... Following the instructions at [1] to use gdb to get a backtrace for the X server when it crashes would be of great help.

Those are all in the manpage - look for (1) "*customization: color", (2) faceName, and (3) faceSize -- Thomas E.
