By latest version do you mean that you manually selected 
XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-48?  It is a test package, so it has to be 
manually selected *everytime* that you run setup.exe.  If you install 
it, then run setup.exe again, it will downgrade you back to 4.3.0-47.

Might be a good idea to stick those parameters in the User's Guide

autoconfiguration seems to be working for nearly all users, so there may
be little need for re-enabling the XF86Config support ever.


Some people are still using the config file eg. for setting another keyboard

These options from the configfile are now available on the commandline

Website update - favorites icon

I added a favicon.ico file to the root of x.cygwin.com.  I also manually 
added tags to most of the non-documentation HTML files to point to icon, 
in case people still come into the site through the cygwin.com/xfree, in 
which case our favicon.ico will not be in the root.

You should be seeing the X icon from XWin.exe in your web browser if it 
supports these icons.  Be aware that all web browsers have some weird 
issues with favorites icons, with most not showing the new icon unless 
you close and open the browser.

Hope you enjoy it :)

Nice catch.  Little cut and paste error on my part.  I had it setup as 
image/ico, removed it, then I think I screwed it up when I added it a

Indirect OpenGL acceleration - New notes

I posted some new and simplified notes on how to add indirect OpenGL
acceleration to Cygwin/X:

http://msu.edu/~huntharo/xwin/devel/server/CygwinX-Accelerated-OpenGL-Support-20040229.pdf

In addition, I have checked in the build framework for this into our
tree on freedesktop.org. You can find more information about our tree
on fd.o from this page:

http://x.cygwin.com/devel/server/

All you have to do to enable the indirect OpenGL acceleration build
framework is to edit xc/config/cf/cygwin.cf and change GlxUseWindows
from NO to YES. Then, if you don't want to rebuild the entire tree,
just do the following:

cd programs/Xserver
make Makefile
cd GL
make Makefile
make Makefiles
cd ..
make XWin.exe
That should result in a compilation of the currently empty
GL/windows/indirect.c file, which will cause XWin.exe to fail to link
since it can't find the OpenGL functions. I am a little confused about
why XWin.exe fails to link on so many functions, since it seems that
-lopengl32 is providing those functions (look some of them up via 'nm -g
/usr/lib/w32api/opengl32.a | grep function_name')... I could use a few
pointers on what is happening there.

Implementing indirect acceleration is a required first step to
implementing direct (DRI) acceleration because indirect acceleration is
used by clients that are across the network from the X Server, so you
always have to provide an indirect interface for network clients to fall
back on. DRI could come later if we find that the performance of the
indirect rendering is not acceptable. However, DRI will be considerably
more complex since both the X Server process and the client application
process will need to be able to write to the same OpenGL surface (as
explained to me by Torrey Lyons of X on X fame). X on X got lucky:
Apple wrote them an extension to the OS to provide this functionality :)
We may or may not have a problem with two applications trying to write
to the same surface in Windows; if it is not possible, then there may be
nothing we can do to work around it. Thus, indirect rendering is now
doubly attractive as a starting point since we know it is possible.

Harold

OpenGL header problems

As I mentioned in my email about enabling indirect OpenGL acceleration, 
there are some problems when trying to link to -lopengl32.

I tracked this down to problems with the way that 
/usr/include/w32api/GL/gl.h decorates the function declarations for the 
gl* functions.  There are some collisions between the way that the 
standard windows headers define WINGDIAPI and APIENTRY and the way that 
gl.h expects them to be.

However, the problem is a little trickier than just that: I added a call 
to glPixelStorei in Xserver/hw/xwin/InitOutput.c (without #including any 
opengl headers) and instead made my own prototype for glPixelStorei.  If 
I made it:

void __stdcall glPixelStorei (unsigned int, int);

then the linker would complain about how it had to fixup a reference to 
glPixelStorei as [EMAIL PROTECTED]  But that is exactly what the 
__stdcall was supposed to do, so I am getting a little confused about 
why the prototype was being ignored.

I need an expert on __stdcall and w32api headers to give me a hand here. 
 Igor, I saw a post you made on this subject before, so I am counting 
on you :)

Once this little trick is solved we will have to figure out how to get 
the proper headers in exports/include/GL/; that directory currently 
getes some Mesa headers in it.  I'm not sure if we can cleanly disable 
that and point to the w32api OpenGL headers instead.

Re: cygcheck

2004-02-29 Thread George Hester

Sorry about that.  Tell me if this is better.
Yes I could tell Cygwin under cygcheck -s was retrieving more information
then was in the download.  I did have it set to full.
So I don't know what more I could have gotten.
The result was as I showed.  So you think some of the items
I mentioned as Not Found should have been found choosing Full
in the Setup?  Hmmm

 The cygcheck program in its -s mode (system information) was designed to
 cram as much useful information about your Cygwin installation as possible
 into its output, to help others in diagnosing and/or reproducing your
 problems (and, hopefully, eventually fixing them).
 
 The installed programs part of the output attempts to list some common
 programs that people usually ask about.  This helps in situations where
 some other version of gcc hides the Cygwin version, for example, and
 people complain that gcc doesn't work.  The fact that the programs are or
 aren't found on your system shouldn't bother you unless you need to use
 one of them.  All four of the programs that you listed are development
 tools to let you build and debug programs.
 
 Frankly, I have no idea why cpp not found is (good!).  Perhaps it used
 to be that the gcc package hid cpp in its special directory, and you
 weren't supposed to invoke it directly, but rather by passing an option to
 gcc.  AFAICS, the current package ships with that program, so perhaps that
 note is outdated and should be removed.
 
 Since these programs are in the official Cygwin packages, you, apparently,
 haven't installed everything (which is what I read your all the options
 to mean).  If you want to see exactly what you've installed and what's
 available, run setup.exe and switch the view to Full (using the button
 on the top right of the package selection page).  You will see information
 about all the packages in the distribution.  I can't really tell you more
 about your system, since you haven't attached the output of cygcheck
 -svr as requested in http://cygwin.com/problems.html.
 
 As for whether you *should* find them, that's entirely up to you.  If
 you don't know what gcc is, likely you won't need it.  If you install a
 package that requires it, hopefully that package will either pull it in or
 complain the first time it tries to use it, at which point you'll know you
 need to install it (and will be able to find it on the Cygwin package
 search page at http://cygwin.com/packages/).  Until then, don't bother.
 
 HTH,
 Igor

Yes, this is the shared library which is created from the MySQL

If you link against the static archive (libmysqlclient.a), you won't
need the DLL, if you link with `-L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient`, the
import library (libmysqlclient.dll.a) is picked at first by the linker

There should be no conflicts.  To be safe, tell your users that you
deliver a cygwin1.dll and that it is not possible to use two Cygwin

RE : 1.0.0 : Installing Apache as a new Service = Win32 error 1062 (Windows XP Pro)

2004-02-29 Thread Flo

Does anybody has already installed Apache as a service in this mailing
list?

Objet : Re: 1.0.0 : Installing Apache as a new Service = Win32 error
1062 (Windows XP Pro)

 According to this doc :
 
 Installing Apache as a new Service
 Use the following statement to install httpd.exe as a new service:
 
   $ cygrunsrv -I service_name-p /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd.exe [-a
 arguments] \
   [-e VAR=VALUE] [-t auto|manual] [-u user] [-w passwd] Where -a
is
 used to pass command line arguments (such as -DFOO defines) to
 httpd.exe, and -e is used to pass environment variables. If necessary
 you may
 use the -t options to set the autostart configuration for the service.
 If you
 want the new service to run under a different userid, you will have to
 supply
 the -u and -w options.
 
 When i start apache as this : /usr/sbin/httpd.exe
 apache is running ok
 
 but when i install it as service with : cygrunsrv -I apache -p
 /usr/sbin/httpd.exe
 and i try to start the service with :
 $ cygrunsrv -S apache
 i get :
 cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus:  Win32 error
 1062: Le service n'a pas été démarré.
 
 Then when i start is with Windows i get this :
 Erreur 1067 : le processus s'est arrêté inopinément
 (Error 1067 : the process sudenly stopped)
 
 My windows XP session is running as the Flo user from
 Administrateurs group, so I updated the httpd.conf :
 User Flo
 Group Administrateurs
 
 I also tried this :
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/temp
 $ cygrunsrv -I apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -u Flo -w flo
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/temp
 $ cygrunsrv -S apache
 cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: StartService:  Win32 error 1069:
 L'échec d'une ouverture de session a empêché le démarrage du service.
 
 I think there is other thing to do but what ?

when invoking apache's httpd via cygrunsrv you will have to tell httpd
to not detach from the calling shell (which is in fact the cygrunsrv
process itself). Otherwise the binding gets loose.

Please check /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/apache* for a manual and section on
how to correctly install the httpd as service.

Re: Issue with rxvt

I am just guessing here, but I might be right (You may check with rxvt 
source code and/or 'man rxvt', I no time and don't use it).

Without '-e bash', rxvt calls the much simpler, scaled-down 'ash' which 
is not able to understand more advanced terminal control escape 
sequences but bash is. And see to it that '- e bash' is always the last 
on command line (if you give rxvt other options, that's how xterm 
behaves I guess rxvt follows that too)

Glad it helps,

No, sorry.  It never worked with TCP/IP when using host=localhost, I
always use the IP address of the host where the server is running,
only exception is when I use the Cygwin-MySQL server running at my
local box where it also works via /var/mysql/mysql.sock.

 Well, I wonder how the mysql client manage to connect: for instance
 the client which is compiled in you binaries doesnt work (i.e.
 cannot connet throuch socket) while the mysql clientprovided
 in Mysql-4.0.18 for windows work. 

The native Windows server and clients default to TCP/IP, the Cygwin
versions default to using /var/mysql/mysql.sock, if you specify
`host=127.0.0.1` it will work with the Cygwin client too because it
will use TCP/IP then.

Look in the source where it is specified what to use as default,
or there should be a part guarded with `#ifdef WIN32` where is
specified to use TCP/IP.

 The all goes off and starts building things again -- if
 I just do a make install, it goes off and starts compiling

Some kind of clock problem confusing make?  Or is this just the
normal stuff you see with nested makefiles, where the top-level
makefile has to invoke the others to see if they are up-to-date?
(Lots of entering directory/leaving directory messages.)
The actual make commands you are using and their output would be helpful.

Last time you asked, I think you got the answer: Tk-804* builds
successfully only with the x option, Tk800* will build without.  I
just tried most recent versions of both and also see that (though
even Tk800.025 gets a number of test failures, so you would need to
use the force command from the cpan shell).

I see brief mention of this on the pTK list:
   http://lists.perl.org/showlist.cgi?name=ptk

anwered by Nick Ing-Simmons (the perl/Tk maintainer) with an request
for someone more familiar with cygwin to help out:
   http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/ptk/2003-12/msg00296.html

But when I try Tk-804.025-beta15, I get a lot farther than that before
it fails:

 What is lost by allowing perl to make libwin32 calls, in
 this case, is not violating the principle of least surprise.

Again, the perl-libwin32 package containing the Win32 calls
first became available via setup *after* the most recent perl
package.  I expect perl will automatically load the Win32::
stuff (at least to the extent the native win32 port does) with
the next release or two.

In the meantime, you will either need to patch perl to do this
yourself or set PERL5OPT=-MWin32CORE, as I believe was previously
mentioned.

 Yes I could tell Cygwin under cygcheck -s was retrieving more information

 So I don't know what more I could have gotten.

Setting the *view* to Full doesn't actually select any packages - it
simply displays all the available ones.  If you want to actually *install*
everything, read http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_2.html#SEC14.

FWIW, in the Full view, all the packages marked Skip aren't installed
on your system, and you can select them individually.

  The cygcheck program in its -s mode (system information) was designed to
  cram as much useful information about your Cygwin installation as possible
  into its output, to help others in diagnosing and/or reproducing your
  problems (and, hopefully, eventually fixing them).
 
  The installed programs part of the output attempts to list some common
  programs that people usually ask about.  This helps in situations where
  some other version of gcc hides the Cygwin version, for example, and
  people complain that gcc doesn't work.  The fact that the programs are or
  aren't found on your system shouldn't bother you unless you need to use
  one of them.  All four of the programs that you listed are development
  tools to let you build and debug programs.
 
  Frankly, I have no idea why cpp not found is (good!).  Perhaps it used
  to be that the gcc package hid cpp in its special directory, and you
  weren't supposed to invoke it directly, but rather by passing an option to
  gcc.  AFAICS, the current package ships with that program, so perhaps that
  note is outdated and should be removed.
 
  Since these programs are in the official Cygwin packages, you, apparently,
  haven't installed everything (which is what I read your all the options
  to mean).  If you want to see exactly what you've installed and what's
  available, run setup.exe and switch the view to Full (using the button
  on the top right of the package selection page).  You will see information
  about all the packages in the distribution.  I can't really tell you more
  about your system, since you haven't attached the output of cygcheck
  -svr as requested in http://cygwin.com/problems.html.
 
  As for whether you *should* find them, that's entirely up to you.  If
  you don't know what gcc is, likely you won't need it.  If you install a
  package that requires it, hopefully that package will either pull it in or
  complain the first time it tries to use it, at which point you'll know you
  need to install it (and will be able to find it on the Cygwin package
  search page at http://cygwin.com/packages/).  Until then, don't bother.
 
  HTH,
  Igor

This sounds a bit off-topic for this list since it's clearly a hardware

  According to this doc :
 
  Installing Apache as a new Service
  Use the following statement to install httpd.exe as a new service:
 
$ cygrunsrv -I service_name-p /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd.exe [-a arguments] \
[-e VAR=VALUE] [-t auto|manual] [-u user] [-w passwd]
 
  Where -a is used to pass command line arguments (such as -DFOO
  defines) to httpd.exe, and -e is used to pass environment variables.
  If necessary you may use the -t options to set the autostart
  configuration for the service. If you want the new service to run
  under a different userid, you will have to supply the -u and -w
  options.
 
  When i start apache as this : /usr/sbin/httpd.exe
  apache is running ok
 
  but when i install it as service with : cygrunsrv -I apache -p
  /usr/sbin/httpd.exe
 
  and i try to start the service with :
  $ cygrunsrv -S apache
  i get :
  cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus:  Win32 error
  1062: Le service n'a pas été démarré.
 
  Then when i start is with Windows i get this :
  Erreur 1067 : le processus s'est arrêté inopinément
  (Error 1067 : the process sudenly stopped)
 
  My windows XP session is running as the Flo user from
  Administrateurs group, so I updated the httpd.conf :
  User Flo
  Group Administrateurs
 
  I also tried this :
 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/temp
  $ cygrunsrv -I apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -u Flo -w flo
 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/temp
  $ cygrunsrv -S apache
  cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: StartService:  Win32 error 1069:
  L'échec d'une ouverture de session a empêché le démarrage du service.
 
  I think there is other thing to do but what ?

 when invoking apache's httpd via cygrunsrv you will have to tell httpd
 to not detach from the calling shell (which is in fact the cygrunsrv
 process itself). Otherwise the binding gets loose.

 Please check /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/apache* for a manual and section on
 how to correctly install the httpd as service.

Lloyd,

Please (re)read the Cygwin problem reporting guidelines at
http://cygwin.com/problems.html, especially the bit about attaching the
output of cygcheck -svr (which is not optional).

The first thing to check is whether you're using the Cygwin versions of
OpenSSH and CVS.  AFAIK, there is no ssh2 command in the Cygwin OpenSSH
package.  Running which ssh2 should give you an idea of which ssh you're
getting.  It does sound like you're getting a Windows program that
attempts to detect the console (and gets the one that opened the X
window).

Flo,

Did you actually *read* /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/apache-1.3.29-1.README?
FYI, lots of people on this list (including me) have Apache working as a
service (by following the instructions in the README).

  According to this doc :
 
  Installing Apache as a new Service
  Use the following statement to install httpd.exe as a new service:
 
$ cygrunsrv -I service_name-p /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd.exe [-a
arguments] \
[-e VAR=VALUE] [-t auto|manual] [-u user] [-w passwd]
 
  Where -a is used to pass command line arguments (such as -DFOO
  defines) to httpd.exe, and -e is used to pass environment variables.
  If necessary you may use the -t options to set the autostart
  configuration for the service. If you want the new service to run
  under a different userid, you will have to supply the -u and -w
  options.
 
  When i start apache as this : /usr/sbin/httpd.exe
  apache is running ok
 
  but when i install it as service with : cygrunsrv -I apache -p
  /usr/sbin/httpd.exe
 
  and i try to start the service with :
  $ cygrunsrv -S apache
  i get :
  cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus:  Win32
error
  1062: Le service n'a pas été démarré.
 
  Then when i start is with Windows i get this :
  Erreur 1067 : le processus s'est arrêté inopinément
  (Error 1067 : the process sudenly stopped)
 
  My windows XP session is running as the Flo user from
  Administrateurs group, so I updated the httpd.conf :
  User Flo
  Group Administrateurs
 
  I also tried this :
 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/temp
  $ cygrunsrv -I apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -u Flo -w flo
 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/temp
  $ cygrunsrv -S apache
  cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: StartService:  Win32 error
1069:
  L'échec d'une ouverture de session a empêché le démarrage du
service.
 
  I think there is other thing to do but what ?

 when invoking apache's httpd via cygrunsrv you will have to tell httpd
 to not detach from the calling shell (which is in fact the cygrunsrv
 process itself). Otherwise the binding gets loose.

 Please check /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/apache* for a manual and section on
 how to correctly install the httpd as service.

The problem reporting guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html
which I initially referred you to request that the output of cygcheck
-svr should be *attached* (as an uncompressed text attachment), rather
than included inline, to avoid producing false positive hits in mailing
list archive searches.  The recipe there also helps ensure that you
include the full output of cygcheck -svr, which you didn't, BTW.  It was
enough for our purposes, though, as it confirmed my guesses: the list of
packages shows that you only have the very basic set installed.  There are
many more packages available -- you can see the full list of packages in
the Full view of setup, or by visiting http://cygwin.com/packages/.

The cygcheck program in its -s mode (system information) was designed to
cram as much useful information about your Cygwin installation as possible
into its output, to help others in diagnosing and/or reproducing your
problems (and, hopefully, eventually fixing them).
   
The installed programs part of the output attempts to list some common
programs that people usually ask about.  This helps in situations where
some other version of gcc hides the Cygwin version, for example, and
people complain that gcc doesn't work.  The fact that the programs are or
aren't found on your system shouldn't bother you unless you need to use
one of them.  All four of the programs that you listed are development

Re: Issue with rxvt

2004-02-29 Thread Jonathan E. Brickman

After playing with it a good bit, here is my final solution:

1.  A batch file, cygwin2.bat, located in C:\cygwin

2.  The contents of the batch file as follows:

@echo off

C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
rxvt -bg black -fg white -e bash --login -i

3.  A shortcut to this batch file on my desktop, with the icon changed

 to use mysql_real_connect with host=127.0.0.1 because if I use

Because Unix domain sockets are more efficient than TCP/IP ones.  So if
you specify 'localhost' as the host then there's a prety good chance
that a Unix socket is available, and so the client tries that.  It's an
optimization so that Unix sockets are used when talking to the
localhost, without the user having to explicitly configure it.

'exim' setup question

2004-02-29 Thread Jonathan E. Brickman

A while ago I was using 'exim' quite successfully as an SMTP server 
under cygwin/XP. Then more and more email service providers started 
configuring their SMTP servers to not accept email sent from an ISP's 
dynamic IP list, as one step in defense against spam. At first I just 
set up exim's config file with a list of domains to route to my ISP's 
smarthost; but then that list of domains got longer and longer, and exim 
rapidly ceased to be practical -- and I never managed to get exim to 
first try direct sends, and then do smarthost sends, for all 
transmission, despite a large number of attempts using several different 
items in the exim manual. Anyone have a simple solution?

(The problem, by the way, was apparently because TeX will

This sounds a bit off-topic for this list since it's clearly a hardware 
issue.  While it's possible that Cygwin's XEmacs works your processor more
than other programs you're using, the fact that it may cause your machine
to get overly hot is a factor of the hardware, not the software.  If this

If you're referring to MS's VC++ compiler, you don't have cause for 
concern.  Lots of people have it and gcc/g++ installed.  Actually, it's 
sometimes a problem with the reverse (i.e. VC++ interfering with gcc/g++).  
If you find that INCLUDE and LIB are defined in your environment now, you'll
want to unset these values (perhaps in your cygwin.bat or /etc/profile)
before starting Cygwin.  That will keep gcc/g++ from seeing the paths to
VC++-specific stuff.

Re: XEmacs and hot laptops

Huh, I never noticed that before.  I guess Eudora isn't as smart as I 
thought right out of the box.  Well, I'll look into how to make it 
behave properly in all situations.  As you can see from the below, it
will choose the human name over the email address if it has the 
choice (i.e. I didn't edit my quoted reply below).  But it looks like if
only has the email address, it uses it.  Bad Eudora!  Sorry for the trouble.

This sounds a bit off-topic for this list since it's clearly a hardware issue.  
While it's possible that Cygwin's XEmacs works your processor more
than other programs you're using, the fact that it may cause your machine
to get overly hot is a factor of the hardware, not the software.  If this is really 
a concern for you, you'll want to contact your hardware manufacturer to see if they 
can help get your machine to run cooler.

It's all right. That's not my 'private' email address so if I have 
trouble I'll just deactivate that account.

VfW.H - Video for Windows include file

2004-02-29 Thread Mathieu Malaterre

Hi,

   I try compiling some very simple programs that were using the API of
video for windows (references such as CAPSTATUS, CAPDRIVERCAPS,
CONTROLCALLBACK_PREROLL ...). They should be defined in Vfw.h but I
can't find these definitions on my cygwin system.
	Is there a problem with this particular library ? or is it just missing ?

I attached to this email the log of make. You can find the source code
here:
http://www.vtk.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/Hybrid/vtkWin32VideoSource.cxx

Thanks,
Mathieu

Maybe we need a howto on how to interpret messages here.  We at least

The headers for Windows API functionality are provided by the w32api
package.  The header you want is /usr/include/w32api/vfw.h, but it, as
well as the rest of the package, is by no means complete (e.g., the
definitions above aren't in it).  Feel free to send a patch to either the

   That was my guess. Is there any guide that explains on how to do
