It sounds like you are running a Windows console program which does not work on Cygwin ptys without using an interface like winpty. What steps did you take with which console and python to install pex and ia? -- Take care.

Having trouble with a pip installed internet archive addon on Cygwin
Hi, I've been trying to run the internetarchive pip python script in Cygwin and when I try to enter "ia configure" to set up my Internet Archive account it hangs when I enter my email address instead of asking me for my password afterwards and I cannot continue. I'm not sure what to do because it works fine on the Windows command line but not on Cygwin. Please help! -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Re: Bug in libX11 or something near ?
Hi Jon, glad to view an answer ! Just for your information, since I posted, I did some others tests, and I can reproduce it with k3b (which use qt4) but NOT with kcalc (which use qt5). Then I tried some little python tests from Envisage for qt5 and wasn't able to reproduce this crash. So I guess there's something wrong with qt4. Tomorrow I'll try your snapshot to confirm or not your fix ! Thanks for your time.

I don't really know where to begin, but I'm able to crash some applications via the application's menu, only with Cygwin/X (no crash with Xming, and no crash under any Linux distributions). For information, It goes through VirtualGL. I'll give the example on how to reproduce it with a free software : Paraview (under linux). So you open Paraview, then clic on "View" > show the "Toolbars" submenu, then you move your mouse directly on the "Sources" or "Edit" menu, then it crashes immediately.

I got those lines in the XWin.0.log file : SetupSysMenu: GetSystemMenu() failed for HWND 0x130746 winTopLevelWindowProc - WM_DESTROY - WM_WM_KILL Thanks for reporting this problem, and the clear reproduction steps. This is an interesting bug in the Cygwin X server's multiwindow mode. It seems that under some circumstances, when removing a WM_TRANSIENT_FOR window which in turn had a child WM_TRANSIENT_FOR window (e.g. a menu which has a sub-menu), the X server's integrated WM would get confused and think that the main window had been closed (so terminating the application).
