Re: How to get my auto repeat back?
Jeff, You got this version: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree-announce/2003-11/msg6.html If so, remove all flags that you have added (e.g. -kb, +kb, etc.) and stop using your config file if you were not using it before. I think you should be back to normal. Harold Jeffrey C Honig wrote: As happened to many people, the recent changes to the server disabled the windows autorepeat and left it up to X. I'm using ``fullscreen'' mode with ``-engine 1'', no XF86Config-4 file and am unable to get autorepeat to work. I tried the ``+kb'' argument to Xwin, with and w/o that ``xset r rate 200 40'' says that there is not an extension present for handling rate. I really miss auto-repeat. How can I find it again? Thanks. Jeff

Okay, now try with -kb.

Harold Sure, just thought I'd get that info into the archives. BTW, two notes about the above functionality: (a) some packages, notably apache, will show up as incomplete due to a directory rename in the postinstall script, so it's probably better to specify exactly which packages you'd like to check, and (b) cygcheck will not check whether the files are the same as in the distribution tarball, just whether they are present.

XFree86-prog-4.3.0-12 is the current release: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree-announce/2003-11/msg5.html libXt refers to the static Xt library; the new shared Xt library isn't called libXt, so you won't find it in a package search for the new versions. It is best if you just run setup.exe and let it automatically select packages that have new versions. With that being said, if you are successfully compiling ddd and still have the same problem, then you have proven that the problem has nothing to do with the shared Xt library, since your are linking against the static Xt library that is distributed with XFree86-prog-4.3.0-2.

If you can reproduce this bug, please send a bug report to [EMAIL PROTECTED], giving a subject like I said before that there appear to be flags that tell ddd that it is being compiled and linked against LessTif instead of Motif. Either these flags don't exist (as the emails that I found suggest), or you guys aren't trying them if they do exist. If they do exist, then that should at least get you closer to a working ddd. I have now realized something that should have been said from the start: DDD needs a porter Somebody needs to take it upon themself to port DDD and make appropriate fixes to make it work on Cygwin/X. This has not been done to date, as far as I can recall, and it is likely to need to be done before ddd will just work. I don't see a lot happening with DDD until someone steps forward to port it properly. We can all continue to offer tips, but I don't think we are going to get anywhere. Harold
Re: Updated: XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-24
Dear Harold and Alexander, Thank you for working on my stupid change. I noticed a problem with it. When -kb option is set, winconfig.c:417 should flag g_winInfo.xkb.disable field. However, it is enclosed in the condition (kbd != NULL) at line 387 so it won't be executed if no primary keyboard is specified. Therefore Windows autorepeat is still disabled no matter whether XKB is disabled or not. If my observation is right, could you fix it? Takuma Murakami ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
