Emacs silently fails to run after last cygwin update

2013-02-17 Thread Bryan M. Kramer
I upgraded cygwin on both an XP and a Windows 7 box this week. In both 
cases, the x windows version of emacs fails to start. In both cases the 
X server is cygwin X running on the windows 7 box). I have tried 
reinstalls on most of my cygwin  packages on both hosts to no avail. 
emacs-nox does run normally and reports version 24.2.1. emacs -q makes 
no difference. No error is reported on the console. I have gdb on the 
windows box - trying to run emacs gives a

During startup program exited with code 0xc013.
I have no trouble firing up other x windows programs such as xterm, 
xemacs, or the latest emacs from a linux virtual machine. All of the 
boxes have all of the latest windows updates.


Emacs was working for me on these hosts a couple of weeks ago.

Downgrading emacs and emacs-x11 to  23.2.9  doesn't help.

Several internet searches and forum searches have not revealed anyone 
else having this problem.


Does anyone know what the solution might be?

Thanks

linux xemacs, cygwin x - make-frame-visible, raise-frame, etc. broken

2004-12-11 Thread Bryan M. Kramer
I'm running xemacs on a linux box (XEmacs 21.4 (patch 15) \Security
Through Obscurity\ [Lucid] (i686-pc-linux, Mule) of Fri Jun 25 2004 )
using an X server running on a Windows XP machine. I'm running the
latest update of cygwin and am using xwin -multiwindow -clipboard
-clipupdates 1 .
The problem is that functions like raise-frame and make-frame-visible
do not work at all. Am I missing a setting somewhere or is cygwin xwin
broken?
Thanks in advance
