Can't build cygwin X server : directory program/xrx is missing

2008-04-29 Thread patrick ficheux

I'm trying to rebuild X server (XWin.exe) from the source tree xorg-x11
6.8.99.901-1 (last stable version)

when I run 'make', I get those errors

$ make World
...
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/xc/programs/xrefresh'
cleaning in programs/xrx...
make: Entering an unknown directory
make: *** xrx: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: Leaving an unknown directory
make[2]: *** [clean] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/xc/programs'
make[1]: *** [clean] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/xc'
make: *** [World] Error 2

The directory /usr/src/xc/programs/xrx is missing

The source package of xorg-x11-bin (which contains xrx.exe) doesn't
contain this directory
Where can I find it ?

I find an older thread here :
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2006-10/msg00045.html
with the same problem  but without solution.

any ideas ?

Regards,

Issue after installing cygwin

2008-04-29 Thread Mansoorali Kudsi
Hello,

I have been using cygwin since long.
Recently I was trying to help my friend install cygwin on his desktop.

After a successful installation, the startxwin.bat was run to start
the workspaces.

However, after starting the workspaces, the green coloured "Window
Maker Preferences" icon does not appear in the workspaces.
The same setup was used to install cygwin on my machine and I could
use the "Window Maker Preferences" to configure my shortcuts.
But somehow this does not appear on my friends desktop.

Any idea

Any help in making this icon visible is highly appreciated...

Regards,
Mansoorali.

Can't remember exactly, but, some time ago (>1 year), it happened to me 
to have problems with Window Maker in a new installation of Cygwin.


It seems to me that I was unable to access the WMaker preferences, 
anyway I solved creating a link or two: try to start Window Maker by 
hand from a terminal, so to have a look at its output/trace and whether 
it misses some file/directory.




Any idea

Maybe I'm wrong but I found:

$ ll /usr/X11R6/GNUstep/
total 1
drwxrwx---+ 3 abcdefg Users0 Feb  4 16:48 Applications/
lrwxrwxrwx  1 abcdefg mkgroup_l_d 14 Feb  4 17:41 Apps -> ./Applications/

It seems to me that I needed to create that link named Apps to the 
Applications directory.
