Re: Slow response to keypresses in xorg-server-1.8.0-1

The problem is intermittent, but it always happens within a few minutes after starting the server (via the start menu shortcut or a slight variant). Here are some examples: I did an upgrade a few days ago and noticed the same thing. If I use another program for a few minutes then try to alt-tab or use the taskbar to go back to the xterm, the xterm will be unresponsive. The time the xterm is unresponsive appears to be related to the amount of time the xterm has not had focus. The longer the xterm is not used, the longer it takes to wake up. Right-clicking on the X icon in the system tray usually wakes the xterm back up. -- 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/

Now I have Win XP SP2 too, but current Cygwin version is 1.7.1 - It doesn't work. You are trying to launch the Windows screen apps as the user that owns the screen, correct? Thanks, Mike Yes. I'll try to explain better: I'm log on to windows as e.g. User1, that is administrator user. When I start cygwin shell I can simply run: $notepad I see Notepad application correct launched, but If I do it this way: $ssh us...@localhost us...@localhost's password: Last login: Fri Feb 26 18:00:01 2010 from localhost us...@athlon ~ $ notepad I have notepad launched (I see it on process ) but it cannot draw correctly himself on the screen. The same behaviour was in Cygwin 1.5, but then sufficient thing to do was simply select SSHD service option: Allow service to interact with desktop, which was solve the problem. With Cygwins' 1.7 SSHD, selection this option does not take any effect, I have still this unexpected to me behaviour. There are more authentication options in 1.7 which may help: http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#ntsec-setuid-overview However, I will say that you shouldn't get too used to this working, since MS removed the capability after XP. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

Automatically starting CYGWIN with OpenSSH
Hi guys, I'm new to CYGWIN and this forum. Sorry to ask questions immediatley after joining - but I'm at my wits end. I am currently running windows vista x64. I would like cygwin (well, OpenSSH really) to start up with my computer. So I can access the SSH server (remotely) without having to log into my vista PC and manually starting Cygwin and OpenSSH. I am thinking maybe via runservices registry key with a switch at the end to start OpenSSH. Although I am new to this and appreciate there maybe a better way. Hope someone can help! -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Automatically-starting-CYGWIN-with-OpenSSH-tp28849448p28849448.html Sent from the cygwin-xfree mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- 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/
