RE: mouse wheel support question
Here's something easy to try. Bring up the X server, then run xev and move the scroll-wheel. Do you see any Button 4 or Button 5 messages? If so, then the server supports them. If not, it doesn't. From: Daren Lim [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: mouse wheel support question Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2004 13:44:50 -0500 I've implemented a feature for an application that uses the mouse wheel on the Windows. I need to code it for XWindows. From what I have read so far the wheel sends mouse button presses of 4 and 5 in Xwindows. I'm not sure if trying to test through Cygwin is not letting me detect the messages in XWindows or if there is another reason. I found that for XFree86 4.2 The mouse driver now has support for mouse wheel emulation.

Re: OpenGL header problems
On Mon, 1 Mar 2004, Harold L Hunt II wrote: 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.

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. Harold Harold, I'm by no means an expert, and I can't seem to reproduce it. Could you please post the exact gcc invocation that exhibits these symptoms? Looking at ld's info page, there are a couple of options that could be passed to the linker to modify this behavior. It may also be a problem with the import lib, for all I know... Is the build seeing the right libraries? Also, the GL/gl.h header doesn't actually use WINGDIAPI, and GLAPI is defined to be extern on Cygwin. Your declaration, however, seems correct. Just for kicks, could you try reverting to including GL/gl.h in Xserver/hw/xwin/InitOutput.c and run the build command for that file with a -E in CFLAGS? That should produce a preprocessed version of Xserver/hw/xwin/InitOutput.c, so you can see exactly how glPixelStorei is declared.

Re: Minor progress on Windows clipboard deadlock
Øyvind, I think I fixed at least part of your problem with the clipboard support when compiling from CVS. It turned out that my OsVendorReset function was not being called in the CVS version because -DDDXOSRESET was not being defined where the files in Xserver/dix/ could see it, thus no call was made to OsVendorReset since it is wrapped with #ifdef DDXOSRESET. I'm not sure if you were using Xdmcp or if you were using -mutliwindow with ssh. If you were using Xdmcp, then this may fix your problem; if you are only using ssh, then it is unlikely to help. Harold Øyvind Harboe wrote: I believe I've made a tiny step towards finding out when this happens. Before the deadlock happens copying from windows and pasting in e.g. Evolution no longer works. I.e. the paste behaves as if the clipboard is empty. At this point XWin is doomed. If you subsequently copy from e.g. Evolution and paste in any Windows app, that Windows app is deadlocked. Øyvind

Cygwin Openbox queries
Hi, I am having trouble with the Cygwin. I had downloaded and installed the complete suite fo the Cygwin including all the modules for the X Window System. I am trying to start the X server with Cygwin/X running in Rootless mode with the /openbox/ window manager running locally (one of the screenshots). However, I have no idea on how to do it. I tried running openbox but I got this error saying Connection to X server failed. I had checked the online user guide and searched the internet for any guide but failed. Do you have any script on how to start the X server with openbox window manager? Any website that I can refer to? Thank you so much in advance for your help. I really appreciate your help.

Takuma's Duplicate Display Check
Takuma, Your duplicate display check in InitOutput.c seems correct to me. The only question I have is if the mutex allocated by CreateMutex is visible by XWin.exe running under a different session on Terminal Services. Oops, I just looked it up and answered my own question: Terminal Services: The name can have a Global\ or Local\ prefix to explicitly create the object in the global or session name space. The remainder of the name can contain any character except the backslash character (\). For more information, see Kernel Object Namespaces. Windows XP: Fast user switching is implemented using Terminal Services sessions. The first user to log on uses session 0, the next user to log on uses session 1, and so on. Kernel object names must follow the guidelines outlined for Terminal Services so that applications can support multiple users. Windows 2000: If Terminal Services is not running, the Global\ and Local\ prefixes are ignored. The remainder of the name can contain any character except the backslash character. Windows NT 4.0 and earlier: The name can contain any character except the backslash character. Windows 95/98/Me: The name can contain any character except the backslash character. The empty string () is a valid object name. We can easily add Global\ to the name, but I think we have to have a way to detect that the NT version is greater than 4.0, since it sounds like CreateMutex may fail on Windows 95/98/Me/NT 4.0 if you pass it a \ in the name. I am going to add the Global\ to CVS... and possibly a way to make sure that Global\ is only prepended for NT 4.0. Harold
Cygwin/xFree from 2 users
Hello. I use a notebook computer so I can carry my computing environment around. This is WinXP and current versions of Cygwin and xFree as of a few weeks ago. I have several user 'accounts' that belong to various domains. Most of these accounts are 'js', as in [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc. I want all of these to use the same Cygwin home directory. Cygwin and X were installed from [EMAIL PROTECTED] When I'm not connected to a network, I use [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cygwin seems to work with both user accounts but X will not start from [EMAIL PROTECTED] The attached xwin.log came from running xinit. Trying to start kde gives an error that there is no write access to .ICEauthority. I believe the X problem is related to permissions within /home/js. I have tried to set up permissions for both user accounts on /home/js but I can't seem to make them stick. What permissions are needed? What file permissions are critical, which mearly convenient? Does the setup process replace the permissions on the user's home directory? How can Cygwin and X be configured for multiple users on a machine? and the big question - how can I configure Cygwin and X so that I can use the same /home/js directory from multiple 'js' accounts?

Minor progress on Windows clipboard deadlock
I'm not sure if you were using Xdmcp or if you were using -mutliwindow with ssh. If you were using Xdmcp, then this may fix your problem; if you are only using ssh, then it is unlikely to help. -multiwindow + ssh. I'm still on the lookout for when this happens, but I haven't run with -48 for very long. I would say that there is inconclusive evidence that this this deadlock does not occur under W2K with a single monitor, but only on a XP machine w/multiple monitors. Øyvind

read(): varblk tape records...
The NT API 'ReadFile' for reading variable block tape records indicates the block length by returning only one full-block at a time (per read call) which isn't being honored by CygWin's read() function. Can CygWin be changed to detect a *tape* read() call and not continue to fill the user-buffer after the first ReadFile call returns? The Tape Block Length information is in MSDN, within the document Q161338 in the knowledge base. It *may* also be the case that setting a SCSI tape (/dev/st0) to variable-block mode is required before each write operation under NT/2000 - which is slightly different to the way my RetHat Linux 8.0 works, which keeps the mode set even after a write call. Then again it could be my setup: Adaptec 1520B SCSI Adaptor w/ 4mm DDS-2 DAT Drive. _ You could be a genius! Find out by taking the IQ Test 2003. $5.50 (incl GST).

Re: Man not finding pages
* Ross Boulet (2004-02-28 23:06 +0100) I solved my own problem with man not finding pages but in doing the research on it, I found something I thought might be worthy of mentioning. From the message: http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-04/msg00064.html I learned the a colon prefix to $MANPATH allows man to search its default paths in addition to what is specified in $MANPATH. The /etc/profile.d/openssl.sh script handles this ok. However, the /etc/profile.d/XFree86-man.sh does not handle it the same way. I had an empty $MANPATH (since corrected by a new /etc/profile script). The XFree86-man.sh ran first and found no $MANPATH and thus assigned /usr/X11R6/man (no colon prefix) to $MANPATH. Then openssl.sh appended :/usr/ssl/man. The absence of a leading colon caused man to not find the basic pages so that basic stuff like 'man ls' produced 'No manual entry for ls'. I would suggest the XFree86-man.sh script be modified to add a colon prefix to $MANPATH to be consistent with the openssl.sh treatment of an empty $MANPATH. My apologies if this should have been posted to the cygwin-xfree ML, but I thought it appropriate here because it affects more than X. You. Man. Are. Genius. Recently I posted http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/44906 but found no answer or solution. Suddenly completion started to work again but on the next day not even calling a single man page was found by man because of the wrong $MANPATH. Now I corrected 'export MANPATH=${X11MANPATH}' to 'export MANPATH=:${X11MANPATH}' in XFree86-man.sh and now everything is okay.

In my analysis, I'd determined that the root problem was that zsh code isn't properly/discretely tagging things which should be exported (like functions and various globals) for those platforms that need such things (like MS Windows). Rather than go through the code and do the tagging, I decided a more expedient path was to simply export everything, which is in the spirit of what the original method was trying to achieve, but which is not a very elegent solition, IMHO.

Fix for : read()
Hi Corinna, (For continued reference:) The Tape Block Length information is in MSDN, within the document Q161338 in the knowledge base. The CygWin read() function calls ReadFile() repeatedly while the programmers read buffer-length parameter value #of bytes hasn't been read from the handle. Under Unix, low-level IO read() doesn't always return 100 bytes in this call: rc = read (h, buf, 100); In fact, if h refers to a tape, which also has a vaiable-block of data ready to be read at the current tape position.. You may only get, say, 80 bytes returned if it's a 80 byte block record. In CygWin, since it continues to call ReadFile() in the cygwin1.dll read() function, the programmer, me actually, loses all record of the tapes original data-block-length - with CygWin read() you might think the block was 100 bytes long - having started to read the next block on the tape. (20 bytes of it in this example.) Jason. _ SEEK: Now with over 50,000 dream jobs!

RE: Man not finding pages
You. Man. Are. Genius. Thanks, but you embarrass me. I just get lucky occasionally. I'm not an expert at man and I know next to nothing about zsh, but based on some personal observations, I think I can answer some of your questions about man and manpath. Recently I posted http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/44906 but found no answer or solution. Suddenly completion started to work again but on the next day not even calling a single man page was found by man because of the wrong $MANPATH. Now I corrected 'export MANPATH=${X11MANPATH}' to 'export MANPATH=:${X11MANPATH}' in XFree86-man.sh and now everything is okay.

When I manually do export MANPATH=/usr/share/man then zsh does the man completion. My questions are (I know they might not be specifically Cygwin related): 1. Where and how is $MANPATH assembled? It's a combination of things. In my case, I run the pdksh shell. MANPATH is set in /etc/profile and further modified by .sh scripts in /etc/profile.d. It looks to me like zsh runs the same scripts as part of /etc/zprofile. 2. Where does the path that the manpath command shows come from? I'm not positive about this, but I believe manpath takes $MANPATH and, assuming $MANPATH has an empty path in it, adds any paths specified in the man.conf file, but eliminates any paths which do not actually have man pages. 3. Why does $MANPATH and manpath output differ? I think manpath eliminates any paths which do not actually contain man pages (see previous answer) and adds paths from man.conf. 4. Why is /usr/share/man not in $MANPATH? Because there is an empty path in $MANPATH, it is picked up from the man.conf file. 5. Why is the first entry in $MANPATH empty? From my tests, an empty path, whether at the end or beginning or somewhere in between (::) is what tells man to include the paths from man.conf. If there is not an empty path, man and manpath use only what is in $MANPATH 6. How and where can I fix this? Hopefully, this is done.

RE: what's the software for making slide under cygwin, please?
Dear Greg, Thanks for the reply. What I really want is something to make presentation slides in seminar, something like Lyx, which is the drive for me to install cygwin-:) Any ideas? Best regards, Michael Chen -Original Message- From: Gregory Borota [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 01, 2004 6:53 PM To: Michael Chen Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: what's the software for making slide under cygwin, please? You can use LaTeX for that. There are different packages depending on what kind of slides you want to make. (here some I know of: prosper, beamer, seminar, slides, etc.) Some of them take advantage of the powerful presentation features of Adobe PDF (about which I think many of us 'Windows also' people don't know at all).

crontab: no changes made to crontab
Dear all, since the first time using crontab -, I can never change the crontab file anymore. crontab -e calls emacs, but cron just discarded any new modifications. The emacs saved the crontab.* into /tmp. What's wrong?

RE: can't achieve password-less ssh authentication when my home directory is on a network file server
[snip] - Create a local home directory (e.g. /home/john); mount the remote directory (//Filer) onto it; then mount c:\cygwin\home\john\.ssh onto /home/john/.ssh. I want to make sure I understand your suggestion. Does it amount to doing the following on 'Alpha'? mkdir /home/john mount //Filer/john /home/john mount c:\cygwin\home\john\.ssh /home/john/.ssh In this case my home directory is at '//Filer/john'. Yes, exactly. Note that, as I said below, you will not be able to access //Filer/john/.ssh as /home/john/.ssh after that. You should still be able to access it directly as //Filer/john/.ssh, though, so it's no big loss. Oh, and you'll need to *create* /home/john/.ssh before mounting //Filer/john over it... I gave this a try, but it didn't work as hoped for. BTW, on a related, but slightly different topic, I didn't even get to this point until I solved the problem of 'cygrunsrv -S sshd' resulting in 'Error 1062'. Thank goodness for 'log' files! When I finally looked at '/var/log/sshd.log' I saw it filled with repetitions of the message /var/empty must be owned by root and not group or world-writable. Indeed '/var/empty' was owned by 'john:Users'. After I changed it to 'SYSTEM:root', I was able to start 'sshd'. I don't understand why the '/var/empty' directory created by '/bin/ssh-host-config' didn't have the right ownership. But it didn't. I actually don't recall you attaching the output of cygcheck -svr for your machine (as requested in http://cygwin.com/problems.html). This would tell us, among other things, the version of Windows and the version of the openssh package that you're running. AFAICS, ssh-host-config in the latest couple of versions of openssh contains a bit of code specific to NT-based systems that *does* chown /var/empty to SYSTEM:544 (SYSTEM:Administrators, IIRC). If that didn't work on your machine, we need to find out why. Igor It's correct that I didn't attach a cygcheck -svr report. I can say, however, that the machines on which I have observed this problem were running Windows 2000 and 'OpenSSH_3.7.1p2'. I see what must be the code to create the directory with the proper permissions/ownership: . . . # Check if running on NT _sys=`uname -a` _nt=`expr $_sys : CYGWIN_NT` . . . # Create /var/empty file used as chroot jail for privilege separation if [ -f /var/empty ] then echo Creating /var/empty failed\! else mkdir -p /var/empty # On NT change ownership of that dir to user system if [ $_nt -gt 0 ] then chmod 755 /var/empty chown system.system /var/empty fi fi . . Should the 'chown' line be 'chown system.root' instead? Anyway, if I have to install 'sshd' again, I will pay close attention to what happens here.

Re: what's the software for making slide under cygwin, please?
PLEASE, configure your email client not to show email addresses in reply!!! (or if you can't take this off list) I work with xemacs (under cygwin) and yap (I can give you nice pointers on how to configure them so that you can get real WYSIWYG). I don't like Lyx, LaTeX is so nice and intuitive that IMHO you don't need something like that to stand in the way (I don't think LyX would even work with slides but maybe latest versions are different from what I know LyX to be). Look, I try to set up a group for help, discussion, etc. about (La)Tex under cygwin and Windows. If you join in you will automatically get all those pointers on how to set this up. The group is found at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wintex/ (you need to have or create a Yahoo account to join) IMO no commercial package can come even nearer to what you can get with cygwin and miktex and all the other packages I mention in the document you can get when you join.

Hi, I think it's pretty unreasonable to rely on every individual posting to this list to obfuscate email addresses in their submissions. It's inherently error prone, will never be done anywhere near thoroughly enough and properly is a responsibility of the list software. IMO, of course.

Better way to do this? (bash scripting)
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I hope this isn't considered too far OT, but perhaps someone will find this useful. I wrote the attached scripts, which I place in /etc/profile.d/, in order to get quicker access to the original-package and Cygwin-specific documentation. (pkgdoc and cygdoc respectively) What I wanted to know is: 1) is there a better and/or more precise way of searching for the file? 2) is there a better and/or more precise way of verifying that there's actually such a file to feed to less, instead of calling find twice?

Yes, the mailing-list software could be changed to obfuscate them. Is it so hard ?
