X11 apps failing after upgrade
All help gratefully received! I haven't found this problem through searches, apologies if I've been searching for the wrong terms. In my first update in a few months I picked up the major upgrade to the X server. XWin -version now reports 1.5.3.0. After having the problems below I did a full reinstall of Cygwin, with no success. My symptoms look similar to tunneling via `ssh -X`, but it happens with both `ssh -Y`, and when I do `xhost +` and display directly to server:0 without ssh tunneling. My client machine is Solaris. Everything worked fine before the update. I'm running the installed startxwin.bat startup (with xterm REM'd out). I can display xclock fine. xterm appears up, but as soon as I hit a key it crashes with: $ xterm xterm: warning, error event received: X Error of failed request: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 136 (XKEYBOARD) Minor opcode of failed request: 16 (XkbSetNamedIndicator) Serial number of failed request: 117 Current serial number in output stream: 130 During which, my /var/log/XWin.0.log gets 8 lines of: GetWindowProp - pWin or name was NULL I can't run GNU Emacs at all (self-built Emacs 22.3.1 on the client Solaris machine, but I also tried 21.3.1 installed from sunfreeware.com, same result): $ emacs X protocol error: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter) on protocol request 20 Fatal error (6)Abort (core dumped) Nothing in /var/win/Xwin.0.log on that failure though. I /can/ run the local, Cygwin-installed GNU Emacs - kicked it off via the X server system-tray menu. Any suggestions gratefully received, including what other info I can supply or what diagnostics can I run? Since it seems nobody else is screaming about this suggests it's something about my setup, but I can't think what. On the plus side, I've now fixed my Emacs configuration to work better in the terminal :). Thanks in advance, James. -- 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/
Installed CygwinX and xhost not found
Hi, I have just installed CygwinX on my new laptop which is running MS XP Pro version 2002 service pack 2. I used install options All User and Unix mode. I also took the default of downloading all packages. I am trying to setup a X window environment so I can run the Oracle Universal Installer to load Oracle onto my zOS mainframe environment. The first time I started Cygwin from the desktop short cut, I issue the command xhost + , I then received the error message 'bash: xhost not found'. So I have searched the FAQs and found a note that says to add a path statement to correct this problem. Next, I remembered the installation said I could customize the C:\cygwin\home\rraso\.bash_profile by adding this statement PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:$PATH.So I customized the profile and retried the shortcut, followed by xhost +, same resulting error message. After removing the change, I tried inserting the path statement into the Cygwin.BAT file, both before the change directory command and after the bash logon command. Both tests produced the same results 'xhost + not found'. Next, I reinstalled the software but I installed the CygwinX support. I checked the CygwinX documentation and in chapter 4, it talks about starting CygwinX with either startwxin.bat, or startxwin.sh or startx. I have searched my Cygwin files for this members and do not find them. I was expecting to find one or more of them. Do I create a startxwin file? If not, did my installation not work correctly? So at this point, I am not sure where to insert the path statement or even if I have the right statement to insert into someplace the Cygwin files. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated. -- 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/
Recent X11 upgrade and getting _gl?? Undefined references compiling another package
I periodically do test compile for OpenSceneGraph in Cygwin and up until I recently accidentally updated to the latest X11 stuff the compiles had been working fine. With the recent change I now getting a lot of undefined references for various _gl?? References. I posted this to the OpenSceneGraph list and they suggested I also post here. The package uses ccmake/cmake and from the settings in ccmake when I review them it seems to be properly finding OpenGl according to cmake as: OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR /usr/include OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY/usr/lib/w32api/libopengl32.a OPENGL_glu_LIBRARY /usr/lib/w32api/libglu32.a the following is the errors and I have include the output from cygcheck -a -r -v.

RE: Installed CygwinX and xhost not found
Lots of apps have moved into their own packages. xhost can be found in the X11 group, to be installed on its own. However, it's generally a good option to connect to your client with ssh -Y and then you can display directly, without using xhost. I have a Cygwin-X menu item, with XWin server option in it. I think that's a default install... It runs /usr/bin/startxwin.bat (which was created/installed automatically). If you don't have that it must have been one of the X11 items I selected - not sure which.

WMaker compile
Hello, let first start by introducing myself: I'm a long time linux user, and tired of rebooting the home machine because childrens can't play Zoo Tycon under linux. I've just fiddled a bit with WindowMaker, and finally compiled the latest version, 0.92. It ran out of the box, configured as CC=gcc-4 CPP=cpp-4 CXX=g++-4 ../configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libexecdir=/usr/sbin --localstatedir=/var --datadir=/usr/share --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-gnustepdir=/usr/lib/GNUstep/System Two explanations: 1) the path reflect the way there are setup in the corresponding debian package 2) I compiled it under gcc-4 In order to make it run: 1) create a ~/.xserverrc file with export CYGWIN=server exec X :0 This ensures the X server starts with the MIT-SHM ewtension enabled, run 'cygserver-config' once to have the required service enabled under Windows 2) launch wmaker at the end of .xinitrc as exec env CYGWIN=server LANG=fr_BE.UTF-8 wmaker This ensures that wmaker can access shared memory from the client side So ... it works. I used it with Belgian french locales. I would like to share the new wmaker package. To this end I tried to install it locally as make PREFIX=/usr/src/WindowMaker-0.92.0/package/ install but the package ended up being installed under /usr Could someone tell me how to generate a package under cygwin ? Where should I sent it to have it included in the cygwin distribution ? Which compiler should I use ? gcc-3 ? MingGW ? gcc-4 ?
