setup.exe crashes when removing xorg-server
Hello, After (actually during) my last cygwin update, the installation procedure crashes when setup tries to uninstall xorg-server. I am running on windows XP I have updated to the latest setup.exe (2.573.2.3), and rebooted. I do not see any x-processes in either task manager or windows services. What are my other options other than a complete re-install? (I looked to see if I could manually remove the package, but I did not see any posts on that). I also tried hiding bash.lst.gz, but that did not help. Thanks, Mirko (Sorry for cross-posting. I was not sure which mailing list this topic would fall under) -- 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/
xterm Home/End keycodes
I'm a bit confused about those. They didn't change during the xorg transition, did they? I could have sworn they sent VT220-style ^[[1; and ^[[4; but actually they send PC-style ^[[H and ^[[F. Of course I should have realised this when I changed F1 to F4 to PC-style codes in MinTTY ...

PC-style is the upstream default (I don't recall whether cygwin's older package modified the app-defaults files). Thanks, I think my confusion actually stemmed from starting with PuTTY code, which sends VT220-style keys when set to Xterm mode. I tend to ignore PuTTY's keyboard options, since they don't really match xterm's options. I note that Debian uses PC-style too. Is this issue fairly settled then, i.e. do most systems use the PC-style keycodes for their xterm terminfo entries? PC-style's the default since a long time ago when the keyboard tables were constructed for the PC keyboards. I implemented the VT220-style editing-keypad as something that could change from that default, but (aside from one of the terminfo's several years ago using VT220), xterm's used the PC-style since I've been working on it in 1996. -- Thomas E.

Is there anything I might try to get it start correctly ? Current versions of openbox require glib2 and pango, which are both horribly outdated in the distro. With Cygwin development focus shifting to 1.7, first I need to rebuild X, update those deps (adding any new prereqs along the way), then I can adopt and update openbox.
