tessellation problem with OpenGL
Hi, using an advice by André Bleau a year ago, I got the two tessellation examples (tess.c and tesswind.c) from OpenGL working. However, the example below, slightly different from tess.c doesn't work. I get a segmentation fault, but I have no idea how to solve the problem. I would appreciate any help as this is a reduced case of a larger program which works well on linux, and that I'd love to port on cygwin. I suspect this problem is related with tessellation, but I am not sure. Can someone reproduce the problem and is there a new maintainer for the OpenGL package (André Bleau's email does no longer work)? Thanks in advance, Denis $ gcc -g -o mytess mytess.c -lopengl32 -lglu32 -lglut32 $mytess.exe Ok here Segmentation fault (core dumped) $ gdb mytess.exe GNU gdb 6.3.50_2004-12-28-cvs (cygwin-special) Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

I'm still the OpenGL package maintainer. Issues regarding Glut, Glu, GLUI, GLUIX and OpenGL in the Cygwin environment should be reported to cygwin at cygwin dot com, not to me directly. I am subscribed to cygwin-allow and cygwin-apps-allow, and I read those mailing list several times a week through the archives. Solving problems in someone else's program takes time. If you report an issue that is not obvious, I will typically need a few days to investigate it in the little free time that I have. If that is not fast enough for you, it will not go faster by writting directly to me.

Make Xwin.exe run something on start-up
Hello everybody. Currently, I'm using Xwin.exe+Openssh+winssh_askpass to allow users access to Linux servers. It works ok in a more or less graphical way expected by the silly user (he clicks icon, password dialog appears and then session is started through ssh). The problem is window timing. When X is in windowed mode, it starts in background, but window is opened slightly later. Password dialog, on the other hand, already appears and gets obscured by the opened Xwin rootwindow, baffling the user and causing inconvenience. I believe that to solve this problem correctly, an option can be added to Xwin, making it run some program after all window initialization is completed. This program can then be implemented to provide nice authentication dialogs in whatever environment user wants - thus resembling commercial X server products such as starnet or wrq, but with improved flexibility. I think it is not difficult to do for somebody already working on Xwin configuration options, so I'm humbly asking to implement this feature. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

hyperthreading fix try #2
The latest snapshot has my latest try at fixing the dreaded hyperthreading problem. My previous fix was flawed in that once Corinna corrected a typo in my change, the problem showed up again. So, I've reworked the synchronization logic again and even ran cygwin through that test suite thing that is all the rage with cygwin developers these days. In fact, I ran the test suite while running the hyperthreading tests. To test this, I ran two invocations of the standard shell script test along with the Brian Ford variation of the same for 24 hours. For some reason, Brian's shell script seemed to trip the error more quickly than the other one but the combination of running his script + the other script seemed to produce the problem even more quickly. (I'd modified both of the scripts so that they beeped if they exited, causing me to jump out of my chair a couple of times as I struggled to get this right.) I'm not claiming that it is right now.

Installation problem on win XP SP2
Dear Cygwin: I'm using XP pro SP2. I had installed cygwin with setup.exe (version 2.457.2.2). The problem is that installation was incomplete i.e., as cygwin being installed and started, bash-2.05b$ prompt was shown in a cygwin window, but commands in /bin did not works due to no path to /bin. Files or directories such as /etc/profile, /etc/bashrc /home were not generated. And some applications, for example gnuplot.exe, could not be started, and the error message is as following: since cyggd-2.dll is not found, the application cannot be started. In order to fix this problem, reinstall the application. I have reinstall the application which is downloaded from internet. But it did not work. I assumed that this problem is post-installation failure. So I read related the mail archive of the cygwin@cygwin.com http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-08/msg01420.html Following the article, I reseted the permission of c driver and installed the cygwin, but it did not works. Why the installation have the problems in this case ? The output of 'cygcheck -svr' is attached in this mail Sincerely Young _ ...

I just remembered that I also had to hack the makefiles to get things to install since windoze executables have to end with .exe. I hacked the generated makefiles, so if you rerun configure, you may lose the hacks. Also, I believe the install will fail when trying to install the documentation, so to force things do: make -i install The binaries and support files should get installed (under /usr/local/nmh), but the docs probably won't. Then you will need to edit /usr/local/nmh/etc/mts.conf to reflect your local configuration. If anyone has any problems installing, I could zip up my /usr/local/nmh since I think it contains everything needed for runtime usage. --- end -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Sounds like a classic local configuration issue. Something local to the machine you're experiencing the problem with is different than the other machine on which you've installed Cygwin where you don't see this issue. I don't know what that difference is. You haven't given any real information on which to base any analysis. You might want to start by comparing the output of 'cygcheck -s -r -v' on both machines. Also, user access rights are also important, assuming the issue is that you cannot connect to exported file systems of the NFS server. Check Windows access rights as well as any that you might be imposing through NFS. If you can't find the issue and want to inquire of this list again, let me suggest you read and follow the problem reporting guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html.

Re: still a tessellation problem with OpenGL
Denis dot Roegel at loria dot fr wrote: Hi, Hi Denis, using an advice by Andre Bleau a year ago, I got the two tessellation examples (tess.c and tesswind.c) from OpenGL working. However, the example below, slightly different from tess.c doesn't work. I get a segmentation fault, but I have no idea how to solve the problem. Well, reading the manual about how to properly call glu functions would be a step in the right direction; see below. I would appreciate any help as this is a reduced case of a larger program which works well on linux, and that I'd love to port on cygwin. I suspect this problem is related with tessellation, but I am not sure. Your problem is indeed related to tessellation, but this time it is not Cygwin-specific. I'll give you some help anyway. Thanks in advance, Denis $ gcc -g -o mytess mytess.c -lopengl32 -lglu32 -lglut32 First thing: the proper order for linking is -lglut32 -lglu32 -lopengl32 , as documented in /usr/share/doc/opengl-1.1.0/README.txt Order is important; you were just lucky this time. $mytess.exe Ok here Segmentation fault (core dumped) ... - // adapted from tess.c #include GL/glut.h #include stdlib.h #include stdio.h #ifndef CALLBACK #define CALLBACK __attribute__ ((__stdcall__)) #endif ... void CALLBACK vertexCallback(GLvoid *vertex) { const GLdouble *pointer; pointer = (GLdouble *) vertex; glColor3dv(pointer+3); glVertex3dv(vertex); } ... void tess_properties(GLUtesselator *tobj) { gluTessProperty (tobj, GLU_TESS_WINDING_RULE, GLU_TESS_WINDING_POSITIVE); gluTessCallback(tobj, GLU_TESS_VERTEX,(_GLUfuncptr)glVertex3dv); gluTessCallback(tobj, GLU_TESS_BEGIN,(_GLUfuncptr)beginCallback); gluTessCallback(tobj, GLU_TESS_END,(_GLUfuncptr)endCallback); gluTessCallback(tobj, GLU_TESS_ERROR,(_GLUfuncptr)errorCallback); gluTessCallback(tobj, GLU_TESS_COMBINE, (_GLUfuncptr)combineCallback); gluTessCallback(tobj, GLU_TESS_VERTEX_DATA,(_GLUfuncptr)vertexCallback); } ... Here's the problem: vertexCallback is your GLU_TESS_VERTEX_DATA callback function. Proper GLU_TESS_VERTEX_DATA callback functions need to have the following prototype: void CALLBACK vertexData (void * vertex_data, void * polygon_data); Maybe your version of linux and/or gcc on linux is more tolerant to missing arguments. Or maybe you screwed-up the stack there too, only just not enough for crashing your program. You may find other useful info about gluTessCallback in the man pages for glu. There are available at many places on the web. Example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/opengl/glufnc01_9bu3.asp I've modified a single line in your test program: void CALLBACK vertexCallback(GLvoid *vertex) was changed to: void CALLBACK vertexCallback(GLvoid *vertex, GLvoid *polygon) Running it opens an all-black window. Probably not what you would like, but certainly no crash. As this is not some problem specific to cygwin's support of glut, glu or open GL, please use some open GL forum, such as: http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/cgi_directory/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum;f=2 if you need further help with your program.
