Hello, I updated cygwin a few days ago, now my xwindow-remote sessions are often hanging and are consuming a lot of cpu-power. In detail:
I am running a W2K-machine with 2 cpus and connect to a linux-X-server via cygwins XWin -query 192.168.1.100 -once in order to get the logon-screen of the linux-server. Before last days update all was performing very will (but now i don't know which version that was) Now i get the following output: ****************************************************************************** $ XWin -query 192.168.1.100 -once Welcome to the XWin X Server Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 6.8.2.0-4 Contact: [email protected] XWin was started with the following command line: XWin -query 192.168.1.100 -once _XSERVTransmkdir: Mode of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to 0777 _XSERVTransmkdir: this may cause subsequent errors winValidateArgs - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1 (II) XF86Config is not supported (II) See http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html for more information (==) FontPath set to "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,..." winDetectSupportedEngines - Windows NT/2000/XP winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw installed winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 00000007 winSetEngine - Using Shadow DirectDraw NonLocking winAdjustVideoModeShadowDDNL - Using Windows display depth of 16 bits per pixel winFinishScreenInitFB - Masks: 0000f800 000007e0 0000001f MIT-SHM extension disabled due to lack of kernel support XFree86-Bigfont extension local-client optimization disabled due to lack of shared memory support in the kernel (--) Setting autorepeat to delay=500, rate=31 (--) winConfigKeyboard - Layout: "00000407" (00000407) (--) Using preset keyboard for "German (Germany)" (407), type "4" Rules = "xorg" Model = "pc105" Layout = "de" Variant = "(null)" Options = "(null)" ****************************************************************************** At this point the Cygin/X-windows hangs. Opening the windows taskmanager i killed the second running instance of XWin.exe and get the output ****************************************************************************** 40 [main] XWin 804 fork_parent: child 1524 died waiting for dll loading (EE) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap (--) 3 mouse buttons found winPointerWarpCursor - Discarding first warp: 637 499 winProcEstablishConnection - Hello winProcEstablishConnection - Clipboard is not enabled, returning. winProcQueryTree - Clipboard is not enabled, returning. ****************************************************************************** but than the logon screen of the linuxserver appears in the Cygwin/X-Window and i am able to login. The initialisation of the X-desktop is done as usual. But every time i open an xterm, the Cygwin/X-Window hangs again. Again killing the second XWin.exe brings Cygwin/X-Window back to life, producing an output similar to the following ****************************************************************************** 332281787 [main] XWin 804 fork_parent: child 1476 died waiting for dll loading ****************************************************************************** Can anybody tell me, what is happening ????
