Strange window redraw problem (Still)

2004-10-01 Thread Cserveny Tamas
Hi list,

Dave Carrigan wrote a letter previously about this issue.
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 

My problem is pretty much the same, but i'm not using xwinwm. XWinWM would be
workaround for the problem (maybe it makes an additional refrEsh), but it
won't solve the issue. This problem exist in -multiwindow mode. 

I have made some screen shots under http://koli.rulez.org/~smil/xfree

- the level of blankness is not the same for all widgetsets. Eg.
   Motif seems to be more affected and KDE seems to loose rarely one or to 
   lines. (It seems that only fonts get lost, once konsole's tabs but that is
   very rare)

- Moving the mouse on the missing parts would reveal the content. (bug3.jpg)
- There are no window tweaking tool installed on this computer. (XP SP1)
- Tested with local xclients and sun59 clients. (standard tools like xfontset   
   also affeced)

I hope I was able to provide as enough information. If someone has a debug
binary I would be happy to make tests with it. 

(cygcheck's output is uploaded to the above address was well as the xwin.log)

 I fixed our startup scripts to ensure that proper .Xauthority files

 does not appear to be happen if a non X window obscures the X window.

 We are running the latest version of the Cygwin X.org server. The
 systems were all bought from Dell around the same time, so they are all
 substantially the same. Both systems have GeForce 256 cards with
 driver version 5.2.1.6; they're both running Win2k and are completely
 up-to-date with patches. One system is working, one is not.

Phew, thats pretty tough.

Are there differences in installed programs? TweakUI or similar might be 
candidates which change expected windows behaviour. If such programs
are installed, please check if the settings of the programs differ.  

If this does not give any clues there is the possibility to compile 
XWin with massive debugging output. It will print which windows messages
are received and how they are processed. I can provide the binaries in 
the next days.

Strange window redraw problem

Hi,

We are currently testing a deployment of Cygwin/X for my company's
windows-based X server. We currently use X so that Windows users can run
apps (typically written with Perl/GTk) on Linux application servers.

The deployment is going not bad, but on a couple of systems we're seeing
strange corruption of windows: if an X window gets obscured by another X
window, then raised to the top, the obscured part doesn't get
redrawn. The window's frame gets redrawn but the contents do not. This
does not appear to be happen if a non X window obscures the X window.

We are running the latest version of the Cygwin X.org server. The
systems were all bought from Dell around the same time, so they are all
substantially the same. Both systems have GeForce 256 cards with
driver version 5.2.1.6; they're both running Win2k and are completely
up-to-date with patches. One system is working, one is not.

I've tried playing with various combinations of the +/-bs, -su, -wm and
-engine parameters to XWin, but to no avail.

XWin is being started as 

  XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error

I can provide other information if requested.
