The XFree86-xserv-4.2.0-5 package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution.
This is a synchronization with all the fixes that have been applied Server Test Series - Test 57. These fixes are listed below: 1) winwndproc.c - Call DefWindowProc after processing WM_NCMOUSEMOVE messages. This should fix the highlighting of the minimize and exit buttons in Windows XP. (Jehan Bing) 2) winwndproc.c, win.h, winallpriv.c - Make the cursor state variable, fCursor, a static local variable in winwndproc.c/winWindowProc (), rather than a member variable in the winPrivScreenRec structure. This makes sense because the Windows cursor is either hidden or shown, as Windows does not hide or show the mouse cursor on a per-window basis. This also greatly simplifies the handling of hiding and showing the Windows mouse cursor. (Jehan Bing) 3) InitOutput.c, win.h, wincreatewnd.c - Add a -nodecoration parameter that creates the Cygwin/XFree86 window that is the same size as the desktop, without a border. The end effect is that you can still get to the taskbar (even with Auto Hide enabled) and easily switch to other application while not giving up any screen space to the title bar, borders, etc. (Jehan Bing) 4) winkeybd.c - Disregard the bogus key releases that we see when losing the focus via Alt+Tab. (Stuart Adamson) 5) win.h, winkeybd.h, winkeybd.c, winwndproc.c - Release all pressed keys when the X server loses the keyboard focus. (Stuart Adamson) 6) InitOutput.c - Fix a typo that set iE3BTimeout to TRUE instead of the specified timeout parameter when using the 3 button mouse emulation timeout parameter with a single X screen. (Stuart Adamson) 7) wincursor.c - See if we are the foreground window before warping the Windows cursor position. This fixes the new bug that occurs if you launch Cygwin/XFree86 and give another application the focus. In that case the Windows mouse cursor would still jump to the center of the screen, even though the Cygwin/XFree86 window was not active. (Harold Hunt) 8) winkeybd.h - Fix the bug where pressing both shift keys then releasing them both would still cause all keyboard input to be shift-modified. The fix was to set the fixup for the non-extended VK_SHIFT key to KEY_ShiftL. (Harold Hunt) 9) wincreatewnd.c - Pass SW_SHOWNORMAL instead of SW_HIDE to ShowWindow when running a DirectDraw engine in fullscreen mode. This fixes the bug where launching Cygwin/XFree86 then giving another application the focus before the Cygwin/XFree86 window was displayed would cause Cygwin/XFree86 to never display a window or register a window handle on the Windows taskbar. (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.
