Packages to update for Cygwin 1.5.4 release?

I am in the middle of rebuilding Cygwin/XFree86 for Cygwin 1.5.4. I wanted to check with others about the list of packages that should be updated for the Cygwin 1.5.4 rebuild. Currently, I am thinking that the following packages need to be updated: 1) XFree86-bin 2) XFree86-fsrv 3)

AltGr is CTRL on Norwegian keyboard (Was: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Server...)

Harold L Hunt II [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Perhaps Test99/4.3.0-9 fixes your problem? Nope. I did an update today, and the AltGr button still misbehaves. I ran xev and pressed and released AltGr. Here's the result: KeyPress event, serial 17, synthetic NO, window 0x101, root 0x3a, subw 0x0,

xterm -ls -e

Hi I'm using almost the default startxwin.bat with the following: start XWin -emulate3buttons run xterm -ls -sl 1000 -sb -rightbar -ms red -fg yellow -bg black -e /usr/bin/bash Funnily enough, the xterm I get did NOT run bash as a login shell (the -ls option), as my ~/.bash_profile hasn't been

RE: xterm -ls -e

This is because you are actually using two shells. The first is what is run by xterm and honors the -ls. The second is run from the first and does not. What should work is putting a -l after the bash you are running as the command (ie. run xterm -ls -sl 1000 -sb -rightbar -ms red -fg yellow -bg

Re: [RFC]: Breaking out fontconfig and freetype into seperate packages

Nicholas, I was wondering how fontconfig and freetype2 were coming along? I have used the following two suggestions in my build for Cygwin 1.5.4: Ditch -DNO_ALLOCA and replace with -DINCLUDE_ALLOCA_H for AllocateLocalDefines. Ditch -DUSE_XWCHAR_STRING -DUSE_XMBTOWC and use -DHAS_WCHAR_H

I've recently been motivated to tinker a bit with compiling XWin.exe on my own. After reading through the Obtaining the Source Code and Native Compiling sections of the Contributor's Guide, I'm left with the following question ... Do I rally need to download and build all of XFree86? Can't I

Strange Cygwin/Emacs/Bash/OpenSSL behavior

I don't believe this is X-specific, but it may be, hence the cross-post... I recently upgraded my Cygwin install (to get a new version of the XFree86-xserv package). I went ahead and let it upgrade everything to the latest packages. All in all, it seems to have gone well, but I have one strange
