On X11R6.99, I start X with a link on desktop, 'XWin Server', whose target is:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe bash -l start_XWin.sh and in /usr/local/bin, start_XWin.sh is ---------------------------- #! /bin/bash export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 export PATH=/usr/bin:"$PATH" # Cleanup from last run. rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix # We have added +bs, i.e. BackingStore XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error +bs & # Return from sh. exit ---------------------------- It is just /usr/bin/startxwin.sh stripped from superfluous comments, from the start of xterm and with +bs for XWin. It starts only the X server. With X11R6.99 this works just fine, but with the new X11R7.4 (also -3) there are two annoying dos windows (which appear for less than an instant), in the second of which (after many tries) I have seen that there is this written: ---- The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
Warning: Type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 symbols Ignoring extra symbols
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server ---- If, from the link target I remove 'run', i.e. if I start with: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -l start_XWin.shthe same happens, as if, in the first case, 'run' [1] does not work correctly.
Cheers, Angelo. --- [1] Should 'run' avoids/hides dos windows?
