X forwarding from Windomaker menu item (problem)
I just recently upgraded to Win2K from WinNT. In doing so, I also upgraded to the latest and greatest cygwin release. After doing this, everything works fine (most things better) accept for my X forwarding of apps via menu items from WindowMaker. Here is how I have my environment set up: First I start X with ssh-agent, and use ssh-add to authenticate to the agent. I have menu items in windowmaker that look like: ssh -X user@unix box some X program. I use this to run various things, usually off a Linux box. This worked fine until I upgraded. If I issue the above command from an xterm, it works. I've run sshd in debug mode as well as the client redirecting the output to a file and according to the output, the commands work and the X programs are forwarding somewhere, but they don't show up on my local display for some reason. I have to go kill them on the remote machines too, they don't die when I shut down X locally. The only thing I see that is different (other than the obvious version differences) is I get the following now on any X forwarding session: Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding. But I get that even when the X Forwarding works. Attached is some output from sshd runing netscape off a sun box. Anybody with a clue, please help. I'm plum out of cluefulness. R.

rxvt v2.7.9-04 crashes when an xterm change pixmap sequence is sent.
Rxvt v2.7.9 - released: 04 OCTOBER 2002 When I enter an xterm escape sequence to change the pixmap in the current window, rxvt crashes. Below is the command that I enter to do this. echo '^[]20;/home/user/alexhat^G' I have attempted this in numerous ways, with the same results each time. 1) as above 2) just the name alexhat 3) just the name with extension (alexhat.xpm) 4) full path with name and extension. If I load the pixmap with the -pixmap argument in the command line to rxvt, it works just fine. I can move the pixmap around in the window using the escape sequence as shown below. echo '^[]20;;+20+20^G' So the problem just seems to be with loading the file. Given that the image can be loaded form the command line, this indicates that the .xpm file is good. I have included a stack dump from the last attempt.

Re: rxvt v2.7.9-04 crashes when an xterm change pixmap sequence is sent.
Carl, I don't normally use rxvt, but this intrigued me for some reason. Well, I've been unable to reproduce your problem (in both the X and the non-X modes). I'm running Win2k SP3, with Exceed as my X server. The relevant versions are: $ rxvt -v ... Rxvt v2.7.9 - released: 04 OCTOBER 2002 Options: XPM,transparent,menubar,multichar_languages,scrollbars=rxvt+NeXT+xterm,.Xdefaults ... $ And the cygwin1.dll was compiled from CVS today. This brings up three possibilities: 1) Your pixmap has something wrong with it. 2) This action triggered a bug in Cygwin that is fixed in the latest snapshot. 3) This is a bug in XFree86 (as this works under Exceed). If you post the pixmap you're trying to use, I'll try to eliminate the first possibility. You trying out the latest snapshot of Cygwin will (probably) eliminate the second. Someone else with XFree86 will have to eliminate the third (you could also try rxvt in non-X mode to see if this still crashes it). Igor P.S. The stack trace you posted was absolutely useless without the output of cygcheck -svr attached to the message, since the function addresses change with every version of the cygwin DLL (and some of them weren't from the DLL anyway, although the top frame looks like it was). FYI, read man addr2line and try using it to debug the stack dump. On Fri, 7 Feb 2003, Carl L.

XFree86 lockup with screensaver
Hello, I've encountered this once today and a coworker of mine is encountering it frequenty. When the windows system goes into screensaver mode and he comes back, X is locked up and he can't do anything. He has to forcibly kill the X processes and restart. It happens every time for him and I had him do various things like minimizing and restoring the XFree86 window, as well as checking with XFree86 in the foreground, background, or minimized. Also, he says it happens regardless of which screensaver is selected. When it happened to me, I noticed that XWin.exe was taking up a considerable amount of CPU (it was at 100%) from windows task manager. I haven't been able to reproduce it since then. I've searched the mailing list archives and wasn't able to find anything related to this. Maybe someone else has encountered this or knows what's up? thanks! -Abe His box: Windows 2000 SP3 cygwin-1.3.18-1 fvwm-2.4.7-2 XFree86-base-4.2.0-1 XFree86-bin-4.2.0-2 XFree86-etc-4.2.0-1 XFree86-fenc-4.2.0-2 XFree86-fnts-4.2.0-2 XFree86-lib-4.2.0-3 XFree86-startup-scripts-4.2.0-3 XFree86-xserv-4.2.0-15 X startup parameters: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -c startx My box: Windows XP Home SP1 cygwin 1.3.19-1 fvwm-2.4.14-1 XFree86-base-4.2.0-1 XFree86-bin-4.2.0-2 XFree86-etc-4.2.0-1 XFree86-fenc-4.2.0-2 XFree86-fnts-4.2.0-2 XFree86-lib-4.2.0-3 XFree86-man-4.2.0-1 XFree86-prog-4.2.0-1 XFree86-startup-scripts-4.2.0-3 XFree86-xserv-4.2.0-25 X startup parameters: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -c XWin -rootless -emulate3buttons -clipboard
Re: xman cannot display manpage
I don't think anyone has guaranteed that xman works properly in Cygwin/XFree86. I have launched it a few times and been generally disappointed everytime. Other than that, I haven't really used it. Someone will have to be annoyned enough with xman to search for the problem on their own... Harold WU, ALEX (SBCSI) wrote: My system is Win2000, running cygwin 1.3.18.

Re: XFree86 lockup with screensaver
The XFree86-4.2.0-23 (Test75) package contained a fix that could be related to your coworker's problems: http://xfree86.cygwin.com/devel/shadow/changelog.html You don't seem to be having as many propblems, so please upgrade your coworker to XFree86-4.2.0-25 (the latest release) and see if that helps at all.

Re: XFree86 lockup with screensaver
Abe, Next time this happens, try attaching to the 100% CPU process with strace (see strace --help for options) and see what it's spending its time on. If it's reproducible for your friend, have him run xev while this happens, and see what events X gets. It might also be worth it to try the latest snapshot of Cygwin (although you probably might as well just wait a bit for 1.3.20 to come out).
