Re: Emacs crashing with XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-50
Hi, the tip helped. I just added line ForwardX11Trusted yes to the ssh_config file. This fixed also the other problem of Alt Gr not working.

Alt-gr not working in Emacs and Clipboard crashes emacs
Hi all!
Since I downloaded the latest updates to Cygwin including the 4.3.0-1
version of XFree86 I have been having two big problems with emacs (GNU Emacs
21.3.2 (sparc_sun-solaris2.8, X toolkit, Xawd3d scroll bars)). I am running
emacs on a remote machine using openssh.
First, if I select text using the mouse emacs crashes with the following
output:
X protocol error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) on protocol request
38
I have tried following the advice in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2004-03/msg00178.html but that has not
helped.
Second, if I try to type {} and other characters requiring that I use the
AltGr key I get the main character of that key so instead of getting {} I
get 70.
Ive seen that I am not the only one with this problem
(http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2004-03/msg00161.html) here is my xev
output:

Keyboard problems with XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-50
After upgrading to XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-50, I've noticed two annoying changes for which I don't have any explanation: - the '' key does not work - I've got to run `setxkbmap de` manually. I've just re-installed 4.3.0-47, and everything is fine again (except from the occasional emacs crashes ;-)). As for the '' key: xev reports: KeyPress event, serial 17, synthetic NO, window 0xa1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 234144937, (34,7), root:(464,541), state 0x10, keycode 94 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: I'd guess XLookupString should yield (as in 4.3.0-47), but I've no idea how to fix that As for the german keyboard setting: In my .profile I have the lines if [ ! -z $DISPLAY ]; then setxkbmap de fi ...which seems to be sufficient with 4.3.0-47 to get a german keyboard layout. With 4.3.0-50, I need to run setxkbmap de again(?) from the command line to get german layout. Still without the '' key, that is. I guess both issues are related and I'd just have to re-install one of the packages. Though downgrading to 4.3.0-47 apparently solves both problems, I would be grateful for hints about how to fix things in 4.3.0-50 -- Cheers, haj P.S.: The differences beteen the XWin.log files are: --- XWin.log.0472004-03-08 11:36:48.912067100 +0100 +++ XWin.log.0502004-03-08 11:40:54.519870200 +0100 @@ -1,18 +1,20 @@ +Welcome to the XWin X Server +Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project +Release: 4.3.0.50 +Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] + +XWin was started with the following command line: + +XWin -rootless -clipboard + ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens winInitializeDefaultScreens - w 1280 h 960 winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning OsVendorInit - Creating bogus screen 0 -(==) Using config file: /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 -Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting, - (++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational, - (WW) warning, (EE) error, (??) unknown. -(**) FontPath set to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/ -(**) RgbPath set to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb +winValidateArgs - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1 winDetectSupportedEngines - Windows NT/2000/XP winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw installed -winDetectSupportedEngines - Allowing PrimaryDD winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed -winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 001f -InitOutput - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1 +winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 0007 winScreenInit - dwWidth: 1280 dwHeight: 960 winSetEngine - Using Shadow DirectDraw NonLocking @@ -43,14 +45,5 @@ (--) Setting autorepeat to delay=500, rate=31 (--) winConfigKeyboard - Layout: 00090407 (00090407) -(**) Using keyboard Keyboard1 as primary keyboard -(**) Option AutoRepeat 500 30 -(**) AutoRepeat: 500 30 -(**) Option XkbRules xfree86 -(**) XKB: rules: xfree86 -(**) Option XkbModel pc105 -(**) XKB: model: pc105 -(**) Option XkbLayout de -(**) XKB: layout: de -Rules = xfree86 Model = pc105 Layout = de Variant = (null) Options = (null) +Rules = xfree86 Model = pc101 Layout = us Variant = (null) Options = (null) winPointerWarpCursor - Discarding first warp: 639 480 winBlockHandler - Releasing pmServerStarted

OpenSSH configuration and many recent problems
Hi all, just wanted you to know, that OpenSSH 3.8 configuration seems to be the reason for some of the recent problems presented here (e.g. AltGr not working, emacs crash). I've had those problems, too. Takuma Murakami suggested that I checked my OpenSSH configuration. When I added ForwardX11Trusted yes to /etc/ssh_config, all my problems went away. It also seems that setup.exe is currently not delivering all required library files, so sometimes just getting all XFree86 files may solve the problem. As far as I know, Harold and others are fortunately working on this. Cheers, Tuli .. MTV3 Laajakaista - Hauskemman elämän puolesta. http://www.mtv3.fi/liittyma/hankinta/laajakaista/

French Keyboard ALT_R on HPuX
Hello, I'm using cygwin/X to acces an HPuX system (11.00). In this case the Altgr key on a french keyboard is not working. Even the input device setting seems to be OK. If I use XkeyCaps while connected to the HpUx the key is known with the right keycode (0x071) but the caracter show when pressed is like if Altgr was not pressed. Any idea?

Alt Gr key beeps!
Hi, I still have a small but annoying problem with the Alt Gr key. When using emacs on Solaris 8, every hit on the Alt Gr key produces also a beep sound. Otherwise it works ok. Funny enough, the beep comes only on Solaris 8, but not with any Linux box. I'm using XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-50, and using -xkblayout option and -xkbvariant nodeadkeys. If it helps anything, the describe-key command on Solaris emacs for the Alt Gr key says: key-3 is undefined (and it doesn't beep then!). The Solaris 'xev' output of pressing the Alt Gr key is below: KeyPress event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0xe1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 33292101, (-490,220), root:(599,243), state 0x0, keycode 113 (keysym 0xfe03, ISO_Level3_Shift), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 characters: KeyRelease event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0xe1, root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 33292201, (-490,220), root:(599,243), state 0x80, keycode 113 (keysym 0xfe03, ISO_Level3_Shift), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 characters: Any suggestions?

Any known problems with Pro/E?
I have a new Pentium 4 2.6 GHz running XP pro. I installed the entire cygwin program and had the x portion of it running fine. Was able to set xhost +, then telnet to another machine, export the display to the local IP, and run any x software I wanted. Now after installing Pro/E it no longer works. After exporting the display and then running lets say emacs it returns after a very long time and says Chek the DISPLAY environment variable or use ‘-d’. Also use the ‘xhost’ program to verify that it is set to permit connections from your machine. Are there any known problems with Pro/E or McAfee firewall?

XWin Architecture
Hi, I'm curious about how the cygwin XWin server works? My understanding is it is similar to an X Server on linux but instead of rendering to the graphics card framebuffer, it is rendered to an offscreen surface and then bitblt'd to an on screen pixmap using direct draw, or GDI if dd is unavailable. Does the MacOS X Xserver work in the same way? Does this use a lot of existing code, eg from either vnc or xvfb servers? How does the rootless stuff work, does this just figure out where the top level windows are and only bitblt those but into separate surfaces/windows. I've read somewhere that there is some generic rootless code in the xc tree, where abouts is this? Thanks Jeremy

It works with a smaller root area of 2560x2048 4 1280x1024 projectors arranged in 2 rows. Yes, it sounds like your remote application has a problem trying to draw to a window that is larger than a certain size. That is, it has not problem with 2560x2048, but it just won't work with widths greater than some amount. Assuming your application respects the standard -geometry WIDTHxHEIGHT+X_OFFSET+Y_OFFSET, then you should be able to run a test with your twenty monitors (or whatever the full number was) with a window size restricted like the following: my_app_name -geometry 2560x2048+0+0 If it runs, then try bumping the width value until you figure out that it has a problem; if it eventually has a problem, then you have found a bug or limitation in your application that will have to be fixed, there is nothing we can do to fix this for you. If your application does not run, then it is because it does not like the size of the root window being too large; this means that once you have a display area larger than a certain amount then the application will fail to run. You could always run it within an Xnest server that was restricted to a specified size, but this would not help you get it working on 20 monitors. I hope that helps. Is the application that you are using open source or closed source? If it is open source, then perhaps we could take a peek at it; if it is closed source there is nothing we can do. :) What does the multiplemonitors option do? It tells XWin.exe to use the space on all monitors instead of just on the primary monitor. In other words, without -multiplemonitors you can only display applications on the primary monitor. Harold
X/Cygwin icon proposal

sigproc.cc (proc_subproc): make -j hang

While it probably shouldn't be doing what you discovered, the only effect your fix should have is to bypass a no-op call to muto::release. Once a muto has been released, calling release again should have no effect. So, calling release twice should not be a problem. If this was truly a problem then every exec would have a problem. What seems to be happening in the CVS version of cygwin is that cygwin routines are getting incorrectly interrupted during the function execution instead of after the function returns. cgf

Re: zsh 4.1.1-3 on W2000 hangs with command not found

On my Gentoo Linux box (same hardware, same .zshrc) I have no problems and not a single second delay. If the problem is the same for you I might suggest debugging this with strace (with all the correct options set and after that unset).

1.5.5.1 fgetc returns no error for bad file descriptor
Hi All, The 9th assertion of fgetc in IEEE std 2003.1-1992 Test Methods for Measuring Conformance to Posix-Part1 System Interface document states: When the stream pointer argument addresses a file descriptor that is not open for reading, then a call to fgetc()returns a value of EOF and sets errno to [EBADF].

What version of DirectX is supported ? Or more exactly what version of DirectInput? I need DirectInput 8, but LPDIRECTINPUT8, DirectInput8Create() are not recognized by libdinput.a (it seems like libdinput.a goes for DirectX 7). Is the answer in the FAQ: Why isn't package available in Cygwin? (Or, why is your package so out of date?) http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_toc.html If so, can I link a gcc compiled program from cygwin against the static Win32 libs .lib ?

1.5.5.1 posix conformance for fopen
Hi All,
I found following problems in fopen system call. Problems are written
against there assertions which were tested. I am not sure whether these
problems are due to implmentation limitation or because of underlaying
Windows system. Can somebody help me in this regard?
The assertions have been written from document IEEE std 2003.1-1992 Test
Methods for Measuring Conformance to Posix-Part1 System Interface
7A -When the filename argument points to a string beginning with a
single slash or beginning with three or more slashes, then fopen()
resolves the pathname by locating the first filename component of the
pathname in the root directory of the process.
In current implementation
path name beginning with /// is not supported.
20A - When search permission is denied on a component of the
filename prefix, then a call to fopen(filename, type) returns a NULL pointer and
sets
errno to [EACCES].
In current implementation
fopen is successful even if search permission is denied.
24A - When the named file is a directory, and when type is w, a,
r+, w+, a+, wb,ab, r+b, rb+,w+b, wb+, a+b, or ab+, then a call to fopen
(filename,type) returns a NULL pointer, sets errno to [EISDIR], and
does not mark for update st_ctime,st_mtime, and st_atime fields of
the file.
In current implementation
when Named file is a directory and mode is w, it returns EEXIST
instead of EISDIR
25A - If {OPEN_MAX}{PCTS_OPEN_MAX}: When {OPEN_MAX} file descriptors have
been opened, then a subsequent call to fopen(filename,type, mode)
returns a NULL pointer ans sets errno to [EMFILE].
In current implementation
when {OPEN_MAX} file descriptors are in use and the file to be opened
does not exist it should fail and return NULL ,
but it returns NONNULL value instead of NULL
33A - When a component of the filename prefix is not a directory,
then a call to fopen(filename, type) returns a NULL pointer and sets
errno to [ENOTDIR].
Call to fopen() when path contains a non-directory component ,
expected ENOTDIR , returned ENOENT

Re: 256 colors for bash/rxvt-2.7.10-4 ?

It usually hangs as soon as you give a non existing command, however sometimes it works correctly two or three times and then hangs. What do you mean by non-existant command? I am running zsh also on Win XP and there it behaves correctly. Some people were already describing similar things (including me). Yes. This problem was reported within 48 hours after 1.5.7 was released. It was reported as a problem which existed in 1.5.6, for which the reporter was waiting for a fix to appear even though the problem was not reported. The problem was fixed within a few hours after being reported and has been fixed in snapshots ever since. So, download a snapshot or wait for 1.5.8. 1.5.8 is due to be released in 2004. I'm already running the snapshot from 2004-Mar-05 (and now downloading the one from 2004-Mar-06) all the 1.5.8 snapshots I tried didn't fix that. Nope. You are mistaken. It works fine. In fact, on checking the archives you even told someone to use the snapshot to fix this problem. Yeah, that was to someone who had problems 1) sometimes when I start zsh it hangs, sometimes it starts normally; (2) zsh command-line editing generally badly messes up the display when long command lines are being edited I never had these problems myself so I told him to upgrade instead of downgrade (what the zsh maintainer advised). If you truly had a problem I am sure that you would have reported it prior to this point rather than implying that it worked. This is just a tiny problems for me. There was a real problem with zsh where *completion* took a long time (it tried to do DNS lookup - according to my Personal Firewall - and timed out when I wasn't online and no DNS was available). This is gone. The other problem is no problem for me because I use the completion and therefor the correct mechanism is /very rarely/ triggered. After that zsh caches the answer and replies immdiately zsh: no such file or directory. (If I'm so dumb to try it again.) But please be aware that there may be different problems. The one I described is with the correct function of zsh (and I figured that out just today).

rebaseall with extra files
Hello, I have recently made a new install of cygwin and found out that my old Perl/Tk application did not work as usual. I googled a bit and found out this was due to the Cygwin rebase problem and consequently I run rebaseall -v This did not solve the problem as I saw that it did not touch the dll:s I made from my manual Perl/Tk installation that is found under /lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int/auto/Tk and its sub-directories. So, I made my own rebaseing by, rebase -v -b 0x7000 `find /cygdrive/c/cygwin/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int/auto/Tk -name *.dll ` and found out that I could now run my application as before. However, afterwards seeing that it is not recommended for us not so experienced users to twiddle around with rebase on its own, I am now a little bit afraid that I may have caused problems with the dll:s that I will run into later and at that time maybe have forgot about this .dll-manipulation. Is there anyone that can recommend me how to rebaseall, but also incorporate the Tk-files above to avoid coming conflicts? -- Best Regards, Caj Zell -- 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/

It usually hangs as soon as you give a non existing command, however sometimes it works correctly two or three times and then hangs. What do you mean by non-existant command? I am running zsh also on Win XP and there it behaves correctly. Some people were already describing similar things (including me). Yes. This problem was reported within 48 hours after 1.5.7 was released. It was reported as a problem which existed in 1.5.6, for which the reporter was waiting for a fix to appear even though the problem was not reported. The problem was fixed within a few hours after being reported and has been fixed in snapshots ever since. So, download a snapshot or wait for 1.5.8. 1.5.8 is due to be released in 2004. I'm already running the snapshot from 2004-Mar-05 (and now downloading the one from 2004-Mar-06) all the 1.5.8 snapshots I tried didn't fix that. Nope. You are mistaken. It works fine. In fact, on checking the archives you even told someone to use the snapshot to fix this problem. Yeah, that was to someone who had problems 1) sometimes when I start zsh it hangs, sometimes it starts normally; (2) zsh command-line editing generally badly messes up the display when long command lines are being edited I never had these problems myself so I told him to upgrade instead of downgrade (what the zsh maintainer advised). I figured I'd better weigh in here on this before my words get used in someone elses battle. :) For the record, I've advocated both downgrading to 1.5.5 or using the latest snapshot, depending on the users environment, skill and needs. My debate with Larry Hall on this is in the archives. Also, for the record, I've just tried the latest snapshot, 20040306, and running missing commands do not hang or have any other strange behaviour as your describe: ([EMAIL PROTECTED])[101] ~ % les zsh: correct 'les' to 'ls' [nyae]? n zsh: command not found: les zsh: 1240 exit 127 les ([EMAIL PROTECTED])[102] ~ % /bin/les zsh: no such file or directory: /bin/les zsh: 1245 exit 127 /bin/les ([EMAIL PROTECTED])[103] ~ % uname -a CYGWIN_NT-4.0 garfunkel 1.5.8s(0.111/4/2) 20040306 23:59:38 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin ([EMAIL PROTECTED])[104] ~ % cygcheck -s | grep zsh zsh 4.1.1-3 ([EMAIL PROTECTED])[105] ~ % setopt | grep correct correct correctall ([EMAIL PROTECTED])[106] ~ % If you truly had a problem I am sure that you would have reported it prior to this point rather than implying that it worked. This is just a tiny problems for me. There was a real problem with zsh where *completion* took a long time (it tried to do DNS lookup - according to my Personal Firewall - and timed out when I wasn't online and no DNS was available). This is gone. The other problem is no problem for me because I use the completion and therefor the correct mechanism is /very rarely/ triggered. After that zsh caches the answer and replies immdiately zsh: no such file or directory. (If I'm so dumb to try it again.) My example above has both correct and correctall on and I don't experience any problems no matter how many times I try to run a bad command. This goes for weither zsh tries to correct the command or not. But please be aware that there may be different problems. The one I described is with the correct function of zsh (and I figured that out just today). Davide Marchignoli's problem seems to be different: % aoidfjkl# immediately: zsh: command not found: aoidfjklj % /bin/aoidfjklj # hangs for about ten seconds until zsh: no such file or directory: /bin/aoidfjklj Sorry, mine returnes immediately, no delay at all. And this is on an old 400MHz PII running under a vmware emulator. Oh, and I tried this same setup, with the latest snapshot on a 1.7Ghz system running MS Windows native without any problems either. I also tried both of these on network mounted drives and didn't have any delays or problems. I feel you should examine your environment thoroughly. Perhaps you have more than one copy of cygwin1.dll in your PATH? When you last upgraded, are you sure you existing all cygwin based processes before starting a new shell window? Thorsten -- Peter A.

killing processes owned by others with kill.exe
Hello, I've noticed that /bin/kill.exe is unable to kill processes that are run as another user (e.g. SYSTEM) (even with -f). Is this intentional? If not, would it be possible for someone to use the attached code to make it possible? It is basically a regular version of windows kill, except that it gets debug privileges before trying to kill the process - a nice trick left over from the NT 4.0 resource kit days. Currently, I have to distribute my own fkill.exe to all the systems where I need it, but it would be handy if it was part of Cygwin. I know this is a pretty lazy request, but it seems like functionality that many people might use. (It's especially useful for killing broken windows services that run as localsystem, and don't shut down properly). Thanks, Rob. P.S. - I would do this myself, but I don't think I'm qualified to mess with core Cygwin stuff. fkill.c 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/
