You haven't given us anywhere near enough information to let us work
out what your problem is.

What follows is a general procedure to follow to get X working.


If you installed cygwin with DOS line endings, you would be better off
cutting your losses and uninstall cygwin.  Then start again using UNIX 
line endings.  DOS line endings just cause more trouble than they are 
worth, and there is no good reason to use them. (The option is being 
removed from setup for cygwin 1.7)


Next, read these links (even if X is now working):

Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/
FAQ:   http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/


Implicit in this is a pointer to the instructions for installing
Cygwin/X as recommended by the Cygwin community.  If you need help
from the Cygwin community, it's best to use the resources that are
maintained by the community.  We can't vouch for or support other
sources.

Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/
FAQ:   http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

If you still have a problem, check /tmp/XWin.log for errors.

If you're still no wiser, try searching the mailing list archive:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/

In particular, search the archives for references to any error 
messages you see in /tmp/XWin.log.  If XWin aborted, the error message
related to this will usually be near the end of the file, so it's best
to work backwards through the file.

You might be suffering from http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA 
If you have any of the software on the list, it's important to try
uninstalling it.  Just disabling it is unlikely to be enough to stop 
such badly written software from interfering.

Finally, if you're still stuck, you need to follow the instructions 
here:

 Problem reports:   http://cygwin.com/problems.html

In particular, *attach* the output from running cygcheck -svr.
For X related problems, you should also attach /tmp/XWin.log.

Problem: How do I detect and configure a keyboard in solaris

2008-10-15 Thread pimenta
I was looking at your tutorial in the link below:
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-non-U.S.-keyboard-layout

My problem is in the first step of 4.1.2, once that I didn't know how to
detect the keyboard as you said in the especific topic (4.1.2).
I'm using windows and share interface of solaris. In windows the keyboard
is detected, but in the other this don't happend!

I looked at the configuration of the keyboard in windows configuration I
found this:
Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft PS/2 Keyboard

The problem is when I try to write ç , ´ , ` and ^ in the solaris
interface.

Can you show me how to provide a correct configuration for the keyboard in
this situation, or detect it correctly?

Thanks for the atention,
