Re: multiwindow segmentation fault

[J S]

Harold,

Are you going to apply this patch to the cygwin XFree experimental package?

JS.

Cary,

Thanks for the heads-up. I am always missing Kensuke's patches for some reason. I will have to ask him to send them in a seperate email with a new subject line, prefixed with [PATCH] (Kensuke, did you see that? If not, I will email you directly)

Since I don't have any ideas on how to progress, please do a search for
cygwin1.dll files on your computer.  Report if you find more than one

copy.

Sure. If you just run the command 'xwin -multiwindow' from a bash prompt
then the only thing you're running is xwin anyway isn't it?

$ ps -ef

U752359     868     836 con  16:46:41 /usr/bin/ps

U752359@A217447D ~
$ xwin -multiwindow
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

You are taking care not to run any other window manager, right?
(don't run twm, mwm, openbox, etc. since -multiwindow invokes its

own

window manager)

Hi,

I downloaded all the XFree packages off cygwin today on to my W2K
box, and I'm still getting the segmentation fault when I run 'xwin

-multiwindow'. All the other xwin features work fine. I am using version -18 also. Here's some information from xwinrl.log and

cygcheck:


Try Kensuke's latest patch (dated last night).  (Haven't tried it
myself, just noticed that you guys hadn't seemed to have noticed it
yet.)
