Yes, the remote X server can't connect to your local machine, the path to 
which is contained in the variable DISPLAY. The latter is unset in your 
case, most probably because you need to login with "ssh -X".

What do you mean, the terminal doesn't close? that's normal, the process that
will terminate (exit) is XWin which runs in the background.

Could be a permission problem, the user does not have the necessary permissions
to open the required ports (this happens in Unix, I've never seen it in Cygwin).
 Is your user a member of the PowerUsers or Administrators group?

What version of Windows are you using?

Dear Sir/Madame,

Upon issuing the command

startxwin.bat

I receive an error message saying:

"A fatal error has occurred and Cygwin/X will now exit.
Please open /tmp/XWin.log for more information."

But Cygwin does not exit.

The log states:

"Fatal server error.
Cannot establish any listening sockets."

Can you please help me understand this problem and make the
appropriate correction?

Thank you,

You have most likely started the xserver twice. It is already running if 
you see the "X" symbol in the traybar.

RE:Cygwin/XFree86 logged into KDE3 causes strange Cygwin error

2002-05-10 Thread Heiner . Speth

I had similar problems and have solved them by installing all XFree
components (I thing the Xserver with frame buffer helps)
The main thing was to reduce the colours from 32 bit to 16 bit on the
windows 2000 Laptop (IBM ThinkPad E23)
Now I am happy and can work on the Linux Server with KDE3 and German
Keyboard settings via kdm.
This is a planed solution for some scientists, which need an graphical
access from windows 2000 Laptops to a Linux-cluster with Splus and other
applications.

It sounds like typical memory overwrite problems.  I have never
seen that error show up in any other application.  I thought I had actually
turned off assertions in the released version of cygwin.  Guess I was
mistaken.

There are only two popular users of vfork that I'm aware of: sh and make.
It's possible that their needs are simple enough that they're not
triggering a cygwin bug that kde is triggering.  It's also possible that
kde is just doing a plain old fashioned overwriting of memory.

It should be fairly simple to figure out what's stomping on the memory
but it will have to (obviously?) be done by someone who has kde and
feels up to debugging the cygwin DLL.  Just watching what happens to
cygheap->fdtab.fds_on_hold during a vfork should pinpoint it pretty
quickly.

It's coming from vfork.  Something's stomping on memory that is supposed
to hold a copy of the fd table.

RE: Cygwin/XFree86 logged into KDE3 causes strange Cygwin error

2002-04-05 Thread Harold Hunt

Oh yeah, by "sketchy" I meant that after it happens a few times and I switch
the focus away from Cygwin/XFree86 two things happen:

1) Cygwin/XFree86 freezes solid.

2) The Windows mouse cursor disappears and the Windows mouse doesn't work
until I reboot.  The mouse doesn't even start to work again when you press
Ctrl+Alt+Del and get the Windows Security box that usually works perfectly
even when programs have crashed.

Yeah... that's pretty sketchy.

Cygwin/XFree86 logged into KDE3 causes strange Cygwin error

2002-04-05 Thread Harold Hunt

This is the first time I have every seen anything like this in
Cygwin/XFree86.

I just installed KDE3 on my Linux box and when I login via XDMCP and run
Konsole I get this error message in Windows:

---
Error
---
Failed assertion
fds_on_hold != NULL
at line 643 of file
/cygnus/netrel/src/cygwin-1.3.10-1/winsup/cygwin/dtable.cc
---
OK
---


So far this has happened only when I launch Konsole.  Cygwin/XFree86 doesn't
crash when this happens, but things seem to get sketchy after it happens a
few times.

Any ideas?

Harold




xdvi/xfree86/cygwin error ...

2002-03-01 Thread Nicolae Santean


Has anybody given a solution to the problem below? I am
running into the same problem and I would greatly appreciate
any guidance. -- Nick,   [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've just setup Cygwin/Latex/XFree86 and am trying
to setup xdvi. I followed the previous threads to
correct the xdvi makefile such that make, and
make install, appear to work correctly.

However, if I startx and try to open a dvi
document, xdvi spits out some errors, and then dies.

The errors I am seeing are:

fcntl F_SETOWN (xdvi): Invalid argument
setsid: Not owner
- mktexpk --mfmode cx --bdpi 300 --mag 'magstep(0)' --dpi 300 cmtt10 '>&3'
xdvi: fcntl F_SETOWN: Invalid argument
xdvi: ! Out of memory (reallocating 134195587 bytes).

I checked on the ownership flags of /usr/bin/xdvi.exe
and they look ok.

What have I overlooked / screwed up!?

Thanks for the help.

Dave Hawkins
