Re: Hardware acceleration

 that for 2-3 seconds, then I start to see some flickering(the gears
 seem to be constantly struggling to rotate), but the fps displayed in
 the terminal is not affected(I get a constant  average of 1500fps),
 just the rendering gets strange.

What you're seeing is a result of aliasing, which is an interaction
between the framerate of the software and the refresh rate of the
display.

Maybe check to see if different extensions are negotiated on the Linux
X server vs CygwinX ?

 No. No slowdown when connecting from a linux machine.

 Is the remote machine a Unix one ? If so the you can look at

 Yes it is a Unix cluster. A2 worked, but Matlab is approx. 60 times slower
 than normal - or even worse.
 Can this be solved?

Do you get the same slowdown when logging in with ssh -Y from a

Re: xterm access violations (again)

2011-04-04 Thread richardvo...@gmail.com
 FWIW, I know what is causing the problem but not how to fix it.  It's
 similar to

 http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2011-04/msg1.html

 Rebasing should fix that particular problem but it's not a panacea.

The strace output in that other thread shows that GetLastError of 997
formerly caused some pipe handling functions deep in cygwin1.dll to
return success and now is converted to an error.  997 is one of the
rare non-zero success codes (in some sense).

#define ERROR_IO_PENDING 997L

 This was already discussed in the main cygwin list.  There is a
 workaround in the latest version of Cygwin 1.7.x.

 http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-05/msg00477.html

 That's not a workaround for the problem with consoles popping up, but a
 workaround for a W7 x64 specific problem.  There's a bug in the W7 x64
 console code (which appears to be mostly rewritten in W7 anyway) which
 breaks DLL initialization in child processes which have no copy of the
 original console handles from console startup anymore.  This bug has been
 reported upstream and is marked as being resolved, which hopefully
 means it will be fixed in the final W7 release.

 As for the console windows popping up, thats a generic bug in the new
 console code in W7, affecting 32 and 64 bit versions.  For some reason
 the AllocConsole call does not honor the fact that the application
 switched to another active WindowStation.  Thus, console windows which
 are meant to be hidden in another, hidden WindowStation, are wrongly
 created on the desktop of the original, visible WindowStation.

 I reported this bug upstream as well, but unfortunately I got the reply
 that this bug won't be fixed in this Windows release.  I'm still trying
 to convince Microsoft that this is a serious problem, though.

Corinna,

Do you have a link to a bug report on Connect?  I'll upvote it.

And should I download the latest release in order to validate this, or
are there testing builds?  I haven't installed Cygwin on my 64-bit
Win7RC box yet but I need to, can't use any computer long without an
ssh client.

Are there any other bugs you'd like validated and upvoted?  I'm not
exactly sure how to reproduce that issue you found with the cost to
access directories on NTFS increasing exponentially with nesting
level well repro might not be hard but pinpointing MS-provided
code as the problem vs antivirus or just about anything else might not
be the easiest thing.  This new AllocConsole window station thing
seems a lot more straightforward.

After all, what's MVP status good for if not telling 'em they broke
valuable cygwin stuff.
