Win32 window manager
Hi everybody, The most annoying problem with XFree and Win32,is the window manager. Some apps were ported to XFree+cygwin but lacking a good (not twm...) window manager makes them useless... What do you use as a window manager on Win32? I tried kde WM (kwin) but it is too heavy for just letting me move/resize the window. The ideal would be a Native Win32 that mimic the Win32 look-n-feel by enabling just the standard win32 buttons, nothingmore. Thanks to share your experiences -jec

Re: keyboard not working
Hi! I have just seen this thread, and report EXACTLY the same problems that Stephan has reported. Mouse, Shift, Alt, Ctrl and the numeric keys do work, the rest does not. I am using a Microsoft Natural Keyboard. I do have the latest DirectX too (don't know if that is related). Xterm does not show characters typed other than numeric chars. xev reports what I mentioned on the previous paragraph. RXVT does not accept input either UNLESS I unset DISPLAY (last version I had did not have this requirement). I have tried to solve this problem by getting a sample XF86Config file and putting in the setting Option XkbModelmicrosoft to no avail. Any hints on what might be happening would be greatly welcomed. I totally depend on Cygwin (I use rxvt all the time), so I would greatly appreciate hints on what to do. Best Regards, JUAN M. MEDINA a.. From: Stephan Schaefer s dot schaefer at sun dot com b..

Reply-to: cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com Which programs have you tried? Please also run xev for testing and press some keys in the Event Test window. Are there some ButtonPress events reported? Yes! Mouseevents are all reported correctly. Additionally I see events from Shift/Ctrl/Alt and, most surprising, the numeric keypad is working as well. Still nothing from the rest of the keyboard Stephan __ Do you Yahoo!? New Yahoo! Photos - easier uploading and sharing. http://photos.yahoo.com/

using xbiff on remote mail
I've been trying to use xbiff to monitor a remote mailbox as in `man xbiff`: checkCommand (class CheckCommand) Specifies a shell command to be executed to check for new mail rather than examining the size of file. The specified string value is used as the argument to a system(3) call and may therefore contain i/o redirection. An exit status of 0 indi- cates that new mail is waiting, 1 indicates that there has been no change in size, and 2 indicates that the mail has been cleared. By default, no shell command is provided. I set up a command line for xbiff in a command file: --8-- top cut 1/2 - bottom 1/2 ---8-- #!/bin/tcsh run xbiff -xrm 'checkCommand /home/ingber/local/bin/mbsize' -update 15 -fg red -geometry 75x75+0+75 --8-- bottom cut 1/2 - top 1/2 ---8-- I've tried some different variations of single and double-quotes in this command. I've tested the `mbsize` command file and it does what is expected by checkCommand(). --8-- top cut 2/2 - bottom 2/2 ---8-- #!/bin/tcsh -f set HEADER = 13 set MB = `ssh -q -x XXX.com -n /home/ingber/local/bin//mbsize` if ( $MB = $HEADER) then /bin/rm -f /home/ingber/.Lester_mailbox echo 2 else if (-e /home/ingber/.Lester_mailbox) then set MBHOME = `cat /home/ingber/.Lester_mailbox` if ($MB $MBHOME) then /bin/rm -f /home/ingber/.Lester_mailbox echo $MB /home/ingber/.Lester_mailbox echo 0 else echo 1 endif else echo $MB /home/ingber/.Lester_mailbox echo 0 endif endif --8-- bottom cut 2/2 - top 2/2 ---8-- When I run xbiff, the mailbox window pops up OK, but it not running checkCommand() as far as I can tell? Thanks. Lester

Re: vtable issue with cygwin 1.5.5.1? [Was: Re: vtable with snapshot =20031123]
Hi Christopher, I ran into a problem with gcc 3.3.1, cygwin snapshots=20031123 (at least, probably also earlier versions). Like 1.5.5, for instance. This isn't specifically a cygwin snapshot issue. Okay, thanks for finding that out. Can I take this as an ack that it's a cygwin issue? Where do we go from here? I'm willing to help, but I need a pointer. 1) There was no cygwin 1.4*. 2) gcc 3.3.1 was released after cygwin 1.5.x. Right. Okay. Fine. So I remember wrong. Sorry about that. I'm already on the waiting list for a new memory implant. [ To prevent us from getting annoyed here because we're not matching our expectations: I guess what I anticipated as an answer was it's a cygwin issue, we'll let you know when we found the reason, or might be a cygwin one, look into some source pointer and see whether you can find out what's going on, or rtfm / wrong list / any other means of education ] Thanks for looking into this, Christopher!

Should setup work when /tmp is a mount?
With a recent new system, I found that setup was aborting, generating neither error message nor /var/log/setup.log* output. After a little messing around, I found that my mount point for /tmp was cuasing the problem. After umount(ing) /tmp, setup worked again. Should this (/tmp being a mounted directory causing problems) be expected behaviour? If so is it reasonable that the log was not generated? cygcheck attached.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Update: lftp 2.6.10-1
I have updated the lftp package to 2.6.10-1. A command line file transfer program. It supports ftp, ftps, http, https, hftp, fish and file protocols. It also supports tab-completion, command histories and more. Changes: -Update to newer upstream version (2.6.10) -Add fix to allow DOS text files to be used as scripts Here's the author's list of changes for version 2.6.10 and 2.6.9: Version 2.6.10 - 2003-12-11 Some bugs fixed. * security fixes in html parsing code. * fxp between ftps session is now possible (unencrypted yet). * fixed a rare bug with access to freed memory in ftp. * fixed a bug in mirror, now it does not incorrectly append directory name when target directory is the root. * fixed compilation on AIX. * Polish translation updated. Version 2.6.9 - 2003-11-19 Some bugs fixed, some new features added. * new setting ftp:ssl-protect-list for encrypting file listings selectively. * don't use PRET again if it is not supported. * added cls --sort=time option (alias for sort=date). * don't set file modification time if it grew while downloading. * new setting cmd:verify-path-cached. * added long options for `open' command. To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. To install lftp for the first time, choose lftp from the packages list, in the Net category. If you already have lftp installed, the update will be pre-selected. Remember that some mirror sites may not have updated before this announcement is made. If your usual mirror does not have the latest version of this package, please be patient or select an alternate mirror. If you have general questions or comments, please send them to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. I would appreciate it if you would use this address rather than emailing me directly. Thanks.

Re: Windows 2003 Server Cygwin Cron
I am running on Windows 2003 server, and set up cron_server per this note. The cron server starts just fine, but reports that it can't open tabs/theuser (where theuser is the user account name). The protection on tabs/theuser is 640 o.g is user.SYSTEM which is probably why cron server can't open it. I changed the group to administrators, which cron_server is part of, but unfortunately, a 'crontab -e' resets the group to SYSTEM.

Is CYGWIN_ROOT still there?
I'm trying to put togethor a windows version of a (unix) GNU-type package. I've run into a problem that the DOS CYGWIN_ROOT parameter does not seem to want to work at least on an XP machine -- no matter what I do it seems to be set to /cygwin (or a different location if that is how setup was run). For instance, if I change c:\cygwin to c:\cygwin_t and use set CYGWIN_ROOT=\cygwin_t a ls / (using a local copy of sh.exe and relevant dll's) gives ls: /: No such file or directory.

Check whether you are running the 'cd' that you think you're running
('type -a cd' in bash). Also, try unsetting CDPATH (see items 19 and 32
of the 'Bash POSIX Mode' node of the bash info file).

The protection on tabs/theuser is 640 o.g is user.SYSTEM which is probably why cron server can't open it.

RSA Authentication with CVSNT
I am wondering if the problem in the following thread was ever resolved: http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2001-December/000202.html To sum up the problem in as few words as possible: A CVSNT server running on windows using RSA authentication via Cygwin's OpenSSH server produces the following log entries when a checkin is made: date 2001.12.06.06.14.02; author SYSTEM; state Exp; instead of date 2001.12.06.06.14.02; author cvsuser; state Exp; If password authentication is used, this problem doesn't show up. I'm also under the understanding that VanDyke's SSH server does not have this problem, but it is a costly solution. According to the thread (back in December of 2001), it looks like Corinna had put some effort into trying to resolve this. Did anything ever come of this? I would appreciate any info on this subject, as I am interested in using this authentication method for CVSNT. Thanks _ Tired of slow downloads?

Re: Really big files?
If I wanted to troubleshoot this, how would I do it? I imagine strace would produce an unbelievable amount of output. ie. dd fails after 35 million read/write pairs. Also, what package is dd in? If I do try this I will only be able to make one debug pass per day because of how slow the dd runs.
