Thanks for the update.  I look forward to the day when this void will be

I've been working on packaging modular X11 for the last few weeks.  I've 
finished everything relevant in util, proto, lib, data, and most of app; 
all that's left now is the rest of app, fonts, docs, and xserver.


I don't want to commit to this yet, until I manage to get everything 
packaged and running, but you should know that it's being worked on.

Re: Removing cygwin

[Igor Peshansky]

This has nothing specific to Cygwin/X.  Redirecting to the main list.
Please remove cygwin-xfree from replies.

If you plan to simply back up Cygwin and restore it at some later point,
then the mount information won't harm you, and you might as well just
delete the directory.  Same applies if you plan to reinstall later but
keep the directory structure the same.

Keep in mind that if plan to reinstall and have set up certain things
(like ssh user identity files, etc) that are referenced by some external
entities (for example, the ssh authorized_keys file on a remote machine),
you should either keep those around, or expect to transfer them again when
you reinstall (since the identity files will be regenerated by a new
installation).

If you really do want to delete all of Cygwin, see the FAQ:
.

FWIW, if all you want is to get some disk space, the following FAQ entry
might help: .

HTH,
Igor

setxkbmap fails

[Blue Camel]

Hi,

I'm using the cygwin-x server on a XP box to get my KDE desktop (via
XDMCP) from a Linux box, running Fedora Core 5. There's a problem with
the KDE keyboard layout switching utility - it simply doesn't work and
I can't switch between languages.

I played a bit with setxkbmap and I'm getting the following results:

When running 'setxkbmap de -model pc105' from a bash console that runs
on the XP box, it works and I'm able to change the keyboard layout of
the cygwin X server.

Running the same command from a console window within the X session
itself (i.e. from within the KDE desktop) fails. Actually, even
running 'setxkbmap' fails with 'Error loading new keyboard
description'.

Here's the strace log.
Any idea?

-S.

output of 'setxkbmap', running within the X session.

Removing cygwin

[Herbert Eppel]

Some time ago I successfully installed cygwin on both my Windows 2000 PC 
and my windows XP laptop.


However, space is getting a little tight now on my laptop, and I would 
like to remove cygwin for the time being.


Is there a special procedure I should follow, or can I simply delete the 
cygwin directory?


Thank you.

Herbert Eppel
