XFree86 command line installation
Hi, This is a question about Cygwin-XFree86 installation. I am trying to install XFree86 from command line in silent mode without any user interface. But on using the command structure setup.exe -L -R "c:\test\xfree86" -q -l "c:\cygwin" -n -5 I am seeing the progress bar dialog. Is it not possible to install completely in silent mode?

Although I filled this information into setup.exe and it worked fine with it, setup forgot the port number on subsequent runs (it fell back to port 80). There is an option to use the same settings as used within Internet Explorer where you define a proxy too. Works automatically for me, actually I only need IE for setup.exe to remember the proxy settings ;) Gerrit -- =^..^= -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

I did some research: The Postscript fonts that Ghostscript uses aren't normally available to X programs, e.g. Xfig. This causes the error messages about missing fonts you mentioned. You mentioned the Debian package gsfonts-x11. This package solves the above problem by telling X of the existence of the Ghostscript fonts. I'm currently working on a similar solution for Cygwin---stay tuned.

Re: New Cygwin/X and Xming maintainer wanted
Hi, Thanks Alexander. I think, like me, the users of Cygwin/X and Xming will miss the fantastic job you've been doing. I compile my own versions, for my own use, and latterly am migrated to Xming on re-builds/new machines. If it wasn't for the daily chore of answering loadsa mail (of which I am guilty myself of many a lazy plea for help when I should RFM), I'd have a go myself at running, at least part, of the shop. I currently am set up to build phreads 2-7-0 and Xming (current CVS xorg) cross compiled using:- MinGW (binutils-2.15.91-20040904-1 gcc-core-3.4.2-20040916-1 gcc-g++-3.4.2-20040916-1 mingw-runtime-3.7 w32api-3.2 ++) on a Mandrake 10.2 based linux machine. The built 'latest and greatest' phreadGC2.dll and Xming.exe (built console less) are stripped and parachuted over an 'out-of the-box' installation and used with a remote linux font server in multiwindow and XDMCP modes (en_GB or en). More details can be supplied, if anyone is keen on DIY, as this setup is more up-to-date, and universal, than Alex's Xming build notes on the web http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Xming_2fBuilding Also these built images could be made freely available on an ad hoc basis..when I need to keep up with Xwin patches or feel the urge for a shiny new system to play with. No promises, but this project should not be left to rust away, and I will be using it for a long time to come.
