Still problems starting X
On X11R6.99, I start X with a link on desktop, 'XWin Server', whose target is: C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe bash -l start_XWin.sh and in /usr/local/bin, start_XWin.sh is #! /bin/bash export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH # Cleanup from last run. rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix # We have added +bs, i.e. BackingStore XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error +bs # Return from sh. exit It is just /usr/bin/startxwin.sh stripped from superfluous comments, from the start of xterm and with +bs for XWin. It starts only the X server. With X11R6.99 this works just fine, but with the new X11R7.4 (also -3) there are two annoying dos windows (which appear for less than an instant), in the second of which (after many tries) I have seen that there is this written: The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: Warning: Type ONE_LEVEL has 1 levels, but RALT has 2 symbols Ignoring extra symbols Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server If, from the link target I remove 'run', i.e. if I start with: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -l start_XWin.sh the same happens, as if, in the first case, 'run' [1] does not work correctly.

Hi Florent,
Thanks for the bug report.
Ignore the GetWindowProp - pWin or name was NULL, this is just log spam and
a red herring.
As you have surmised, the problem is GLX related. There are some reports of
remote GLX clients working (Ubuntu 8.10), so perhaps it is related to the
client being built for an older version of the GLX extension...
If you are able to rebuild the X server yourself, could you confirm that the
attached patch fixes the crash (GL is still broken, though, it looks like the
something isn't initialized correctly...)
Rebuilding the source *should* be as simple as:
1) Run cygwin setup, select cygport,the xorg-server source package, and the
packages for the build-time dependencies and devel packages corresponding to
run-time dependencies listed in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/usr/share/doc/Cygwin
2) cd /usr/src/
3) cygport xorg-server-1.5.3-3.cygport prep compile
I have made a start at updating http://x.cygwin.com/docs/cg/cygwin-x-cg.html,
so you may find that helpful, but it still needs more work so don't take it
as gospel.
