trying to build against X
Hi I have had a nosey round and couldnt find anything appropriate on google. I am trying to build fluxbox and it comes back during the ./configure stage saying 'Fluxbox requires the X Window System libraries and headers' I have tried to install all the packages i can find that seem to indicate they provide the libraries. However it hasnt solved the issue. Could someone point me in the direction of a doc or something to help.

XWin 100% CPU usage (Remote Desktop)
Hi! I have XWIN 6.8.2.0-4 and see it using 100% CPU all the time. Maybe relevant : I use MS Remote Desktop from another PC to access the system that actually runs XWin.exe. Is there anything I can do to reduce CPU usage ?

Re: trying to build against X
I got the same problem building mrxvt. $ ./configure ... checking for X... no configure: error: Mrxvt requires the X Window System libraries and headers. I read the configure program. Looks like it is trying to find libXt.{a|so|sl} but failed. I did find libXt.dll.a in my installation, but not libXt.a. Are they the same thing? What do I need to do to get libXt.a?

XWin 100%
Hi, I have this problem (without Rdestop) too. gdb --pid ... shows a loop in the function _Xi18n_lock (). On my WinXP 64 the X server is quite unstable and crashes sometime.

problem displaying Java GUI
Hello, I've looked in the archives for this list and found two or three similar issues but no resolution. I am running Cygwin on Windows 2000 and connecting to a Solaris box. I can connect via ssh and run applications like xterm, xclock, and xcalc successfully. Running my own Java code, compiled on the Solaris machine, fails to display on my Windows machine. I get the following message: Warning: Cannot convert string "-monotype-arial-regular-r-normal--*-140-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct then nothing. This behavior occurs with both the -X and -Y ssh switches. Has anyone solved this problem?

With fantastic timing, I've managed to eliminate the problem (although I haven't found a true solution). Removing the line: JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true); from my code allowed the GUI to run and be displayed on Windows. This suggests that the problem lies with the Solaris JDK rather than Cygwin.

RE: problem displaying Java GUI
Should we need to install a new font type, namely, Fontstruct, into our PC, when enabling JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated. Did you have JDK installed on your PC?

Can't make XWin on secondary monitor big enough...
I've got a Thinkpad with a 1024x768 LCD screen connected to a 21" CRT monitor which I've enabled as a secondary monitor at 1600x1200 resolution. I'd like to run XWin in windowed mode on the secondary monitor and take up the full resolution. However, try as I might, I can't make XWin any bigger than 1024x768 on the secondary monitor. Here are the obvious command-lines I've tried: XWin -screen 0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] This results in a 1024x768 windowed XWin on the secondary monitor XWin -screen 0 @2 -fullscreen This results in a 1024x768 fullscreen XWin on the primary monitor Any ideas? -Tom -- 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/
RE: Can't make XWin on secondary monitor big enough...
Isn't the command somewhat like this? ... XWin -screen 0 1000 768 blah blah I have yet to reach to the point in the cygwin/x docs where it allows the command with options such as -screen 0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Are we allowed to specify arguments of this option this way? (I'm not too prone to reading user docs/guides until I get into trouble). My actual command is XWin -screen 0 1900 1400 -multiplemonitors -emulate3buttons -scrollbars -clipboard -silent-dup-error I believe multiplemonitors option allows cyg/x to recognise the second monitor and to allow you to move your cyg/x window to the second monitor, which I always do. I needed the scrollbars option for reasons I cannot clearly recall. Without the option, I seem to recall I could not stretch cyg/x window to the extremities of my large second monitor without maximizing the window. == Somewhat Important Disclaimer. == This email, while purporting to be true, should not have its purporting to be true be in any way that you might construe as legally binding as super-glue.

No. libXt.a would be a static library, while libXt.dll.a is an import library for the shared cygXt-6.dll. You'll need to patch the configure script to look for libXt.{a|dll.a|so|sl} instead.
