Re: Xwin remote calls to Solaris machines/ font server bug
I never looked into it... it isn't a problem for me. Harold Michael Sadd wrote: Was this issue ever confirmed and/or resolved? I find the same behavior when connecting to a font server on a Red Hat 7.3 font server. Thank you and best regards, Mike - Original Message - From: Harold L Hunt II huntharo at msu dot edu To: cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com Sent: Mon, 11 Aug 2003 08:58:17 -0400 Subject: Re: Xwin remote calls to Solaris machines/ font server bug Dr.D.J.Picton wrote: I have two observations to make concerning the use of 'XWin -query' to Solaris machines. 1. Firstly, the FAQ states that Solaris can't cope with 24-bit colour depths. This may have been true for older releases, but all recent versions of Solaris (and recent Sun hardware) support this depth! 2. The FAQ refers to the 'hang' when you attempt to contact a remote Solaris host using XWin -query e.g. Xwin -query sunhost The cure is to specify a Solaris font server on the command line, e.g. XWin -query sunhost -fp tcp/sunhost:7100 However, this shouldn't be necessary for recent Solaris releases. The XSetup script on the Sun machine automatically adds the font server to the font path, before the dtlogin window appears. Okay, so people running newer versions of Solaris won't look at the FAQ. No problem there. The real reason for the problem is a bug in XWin, which 'hangs' if I try to mix local fonts with a Solaris font server. The following procedures work OK: 1. Start up an XWin server with normal local fonts, then replace them with a Solaris font server: xset fp= tcp/sunhost:7100 2. Start up an Xwin server with -fp tcp/sunhost:7100 on the command line. 3. Add a second Solaris font server when the fontpath already contains one. The following procedures cause a 'hang': 1. Start up an XWin server with normal local fonts, then append a Solaris font server: xset fp+ tcp/sunhost:7100 2. Start up an XWin server with -fp tcp/sunhost:7100 on the command line, then try to append a local font to the path: xset fp+ /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc I am inclined to believe you. However, I do not have a Solaris machine that I can test this with. It would be most helpful if either yourself or someone with a similar setup could build a debug version of XWin.exe and step through this until they find the hang. Thanks, Harold

From the xwin ssh window to my linux computer, I type something simple like 'xterm -display windowscomputer:0' and I get the following error: Xlib: Connection to windowscomputer:0.0 refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified The way ssh X forwarding works is by setting up a proxy X server on the X client machine (your Linux box) that listens on localhost:n (where n is greater than 0, starts at 10 usually I think). This accepts connections from X clients e.g. xterms and tunnels them back through ssh to the real X server at your desktop. The login process should set the DISPLAY variable for you automatically. If it doesn't there's a sign something else is up. e.g. I ssh from home (my Cygwin machine) to college (a Redhat machine). When I type setenv|fgrep DISPLAY into the shell at college, it tells me DISPLAY=localhost:10.0 This is the ssh proxy X server's display. If I'd set it manually myself to say my-home-pc:0.0 then an xterm (or whatever) on starting would attempt to open a normal, unencrypted TCP/IP connection straight to me rather than going through ssh. For the record, I am writing this mail in an xterm on my college server, which is displaying on my home PC via an ssh tunnel; which is in turn forwarding its entire desktop as a Terminal Services session via ssh to my work PC where I sit typing -- because I can ;-) Andrew.
RE: Running remote programs locally
Thanks for your response. After reading the others' responses, this was the final clincher for me. It also helps me for times like now when I'm working on some random wireless link (Starbucks, in this instance) and I'm behind a proxy server or for some other reason can't refer to myself by my IP. This way I don't have to type xterm -display some.random.ip.number:0 which of course doesn't work in this instance. I do have one question though: why do I set my DISPLAY environment variable on the same line as my ssh call? What's the deal with that?

Re: Running remote programs locally
You don't set them on the same line. He was typing in short-hand. What he meant was: export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 ssh -X linuxcomputer Now, you will notice that following the directions in the Cygwin/XFree86 User's Guide (which says to do this in an xterm) does not require setting DISPLAY at all. The reason for this is that the xterm already has DISPLAY set (or else it wouldn't have been able to connect to the X Server in the first place). So, doing this from an xterm drops a step from the instructions and makes it a little more fool-proof. Hope that helps, Harold Andrew Clarke wrote: Thanks for your response.

Re: ctrl-c swallowed
That's what the mailing list is for. This kind of discussion should be kept on the mailing list so that it can be found in the archives. The information generated by cygcheck should not present any security issues, but I'll let others comment on this. The reason I asked for your /cygwin.bat was that others reported that Ctrl-C becomes ineffective if start was used to fire off the bash shell, so if you had modified your /cygwin.bat, that would explain the problem. As for the cygcheck output, I'd've looked for the contents of the CYGWIN environment variable there, especially the setting of tty (as was already suggested on the list by Brian Dessent). Also, having the list of packages and DLL versions in the cygcheck output lets others duplicate your environment in an attempt to reproduce your problem.

The terminal will not display any output, just consume input. stty sane or reset did not alter that behaviour... I find this behaviour if i set the cygwin=tty variable after having started the bash prompt. Setting it before (ie adding it to the system environment variables) has no problems. ctrl-C and (i think) ctrl-T not working in nano are the only reasons i set cygwin=tty.

Please read it again and report back, if the description of raw devices is a bit clearer now. Definitely better, but why not change: Windows NT/W2K/XP additionally support raw devices like floppies, disks, partitions and tapes. These are accessed from Cygwin applications using POSIX device names which are supported in two different ways. Up to Cygwin 1.3.3 the only way to access those devices was to mount the Win32 device names to a POSIX device name but this usage is discouraged since Cygwin 1.3.4 and only kept for backward compatibility. to something like: Windows NT/W2K/XP additionally support raw devices like floppies, disks, partitions and tapes.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] updated: nasm-0.98.37-1 and nasm-0.98.37-2
nasm-0.98.37-1 and nasm-0.98.37-2 have been uploaded to sourceware. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: === Many many developers all over the net respect NASM for what it is - a widespread (thus netwide), portable (thus netwide!), very flexible and mature assembler tool with support for many output formats (thus netwide!!). RELEASE NOTES: == Upstream news from the CHANGES file: * Paths given in -I switch searched for incbined as well as %includeed files. * Added stabs debugging for the ELF output format, patch from Martin Wawro. * Fix output/outbin.c to allow origin 8000h. * Make -U switch work. * Fix the use of relative offsets with explicit prefixes, e.g. a32 loop foo. * Remove backslash(). * Fix the SMSW and SLDT instructions. * -O2 and -O3 are no longer aliases for -O5 and -O10. If you mean the latter, please say so! :) Setup.exe: -- nasm is in the category 'Devel'. New versions will remove older versions. nasm-0.98.37-2 is built for cygwin-1.5.2 and is marked test accordingly. It *WILL NOT WORK* under cygwin-1.3.22. Other notes: Please be aware the upstream ChangeLog is no longer maintained. nasm output will retain binary compatibility with previous versions, and the output should be unaffected between nasm-0.98.37-1 and nasm-0.98.37-2. The Portable Document Format and PostScript versions of the documentation are no longer distributed in the binary package, although they can be built with the source package. The text and HTML versions of the documentation are still available in /usr/doc/nasm-0.98.37 As always, you should conduct an appropriate level of testing before using any new product in your production environment. MAINTAINER: === Dean Scarff, announced 1 September, 2003 GENERIC INFORMATION: INSTALLATION: - 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 'nasm' from the 'Devel' category. DOWNLOAD: - 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. These mirrors already got the package, the others will probably have the latest version of this package fairly soon: In Australia, ftp://planetmirror.com/pub/cygwin/ offers a reliable high bandwidth connection. QUESTIONS: -- If you want to make a point or ask a question concerning the package, the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place.

Unable to allocate heap
I get the following error running CygWin find and xargs from within a TCL script: Error executing 'C:/cygwin/bin/find TempDir/QACData -name *.lock -type f -print0 | xargs -0r rm -r'... c:\cygwin\bin\xargs.exe: *** unable to allocate heap, heap_chunk_size 384, Win32 error 0 The error is intermittent and I haven't been able to reproduce it outside the TCL script (whether from bash, cmd, tclsh, whatever). There's similar prior art in the archives, but this one has the crucial difference that the reported heap_chunk_size is small but non-zero. I've had a look through the relevant source (shared.cc, heap.cc), and my initial thought was that shared_info::heap_chunk_size() was returning a rogue size for some reason. It seems that the memory-zeroing behaviour of Win32 CreateFileMapping() is used to initialise shared_info::heap_chunk to zero. Is CreateFileMapping() completely trustworthy in this respect? cygcheck.out Description: Binary data -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Cygwin OpenGL version
I have just started using Cygwin and learning OpenGL and am a bit confused about the installed version of OpenGL. During Cygwin setup it looks like the OpenGL version is 1.1.0-6. However I am successfully compiling tutorial programs which contain GL commands from later versions of OpenGL. I am guessing that this may be because Cygwin is linking to the Windows XP installed version of OpenGL. Is this the case?

Thanx Pick your favorite mirror, download the Cygwin release directory, setup.exe, and setup.ini, and burn a CD. Maintain the directory structure from the mirror (i.e. make sure you have all the packages in the 'release' directory and that setup.exe and setup.ini are in the parent directory.) Put all this in a directory called cygwin on the CD as well. You can, of course, weed out packages you don't want to install and/or older versions of packages and source from the release directory, to make it fit nicely on 1 CD. Be aware that you're bound by the GPL to include source for any binaries you distribute with this CD, so it's best to keep the source on the CD for packages you include. See the email archives for more discussion of this topic if you still have questions. It's been discussed there allot, so you should find the answers to just about any question you might have about this process. Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: cygwin-1.5.3-1
I've made a new version of the Cygwin DLL and associated utilities available for download. As usual, a list of what has changed is below. This is the first non-test 1.5.x release. This means that the 1.5.x series of the cygwin DLL will be the default from now on. As previously reported here, 1.5.x versions of cygwin1.dll contain major changes in some APIs such that 64 bit file I/O operations are now available. This means that some structures such as those found in 'stat' and 'dirent' have changed. This version also supports 32 bit uids. Older applications will continue to work correctly but DLLs and libraries which use any structures whose size has changed will need to be recompiled and relinked. There have been two problems with previous 1.5.x releases. One involved any application that used fdopen and another involved any application that used -lc on the command line. If you have rebuilt a library or application for 1.5.0 or 1.5.1 and you used either of these, you will need to relink your app for 1.5.3. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience. Executables linked for/with 1.5.2 or 1.3.32 or earlier should continue to work fine. 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. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.

Using ActivePerl 5.8 on a cygwin system
I have had cygwin installed on this PC for quite some time, but hadn't updated it for a while. I wanted to run yahoo2mbox.pl and found it wouldn't work with the perl 5.6.1 I had installed, so I downloaded ActivePerl 5.8.? and tried running the script from a Windows XP prompt, but it used the cygwin perl. So, I just copied the ActivePerl over the cygwin perl (yeah, I know, not a good idea) and then it still wouldn't work because some of the lib files used by it weren't there either. I copied a few of those as well, but still to no avail. Have I just hosed my cygwin? Will downloading the updated perl help? How can I download just perl without going through the installer and selecting keep on every single other item?

Rerun setup, find Perl in the list of packages and toggle the state until it becomes Reinstall. Continue from there. You don't need to tell setup.exe to Keep anything. It knows what you have installed and will automatically leave it as Keep unless there is some updated version from the last time. You can change the view to see if that's the case. If you didn't just updated today and you weren't using the test (Exp) releases of packages before, you may find there are quite a few updates. But you're better off with them.

Re: sshd setup question
Thanks for the comment about cygrunsrv and the method of removing service from win2k That worked well Since I have inetd working well. I have a telnet server and also a FTP server, but neither is available outside of my firewall. I thought that I would try and see if I could use the sshd server that I just setup via the inetd thing. When I did this, I got an error message of: ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer What would this mean? This is the only error message that I have been getting from the ssh deamon when I try and connect, and even before I ran that setup script.

It seems to not want to start the service after that point. Any more suggestions. Also does anyone know how to remove a service from the listong in Win2k once it is no longer desired. I am hoping to change from telnet/ftp to ssh access which means I would be able to get rid of the service of inetd that is in my win2k control panel thing.

Re: display remote X client on cygwin machine's display?

Is there a way with cygwin to display X clients I launch on a remote machine on the local display? best, cyggie You'll find more expertise on this subject on the cygwin-xfree list (which deals with all issues XFree86).
