RE: How to have more than one X display?
Thanks. I could not find that in XWin man pages, but XWin -help showed it. Though $DISPLAY is ineffectual to XWin, I needed to set it since wmaker (or any xdm) would need to know the display/screen to use. I am a happy clam now. I use wmaker because I don't like using multiwindow mode. I am not good in dealing with disorganised clutter.

All the xterms and xclock I started were heaped into the same corner, intransigently unmoveable. (The sun shall not strike thee, nor the moon by night and your feet will not be moved, as though). Then I recalled, hmm There is an X Display Server and then there is an X Display Manager. I think. I'm sure I have not confused the terminology. Almost right: the Windows are managed by thw Window Manager, sort of like iexplore.exe in Windows, with the X Display Server being like Win32 GDI. The X Display Manager is actually access control, the log-in prompt on X-based systems. ... So I looked into the startxwin files and was as assured to find twm (which I guessed correctly is an X display mgr) commented out. I uncommented it and when XWin restarted my xterms and xclock were moveable. But I didn't like twm because the extremity of my X habits tends to pile up lots of windows and would have me a hard time searching for them without a desktop window locater. Which led me to install wmaker. Actually, the MultiWindow mode is nicer; it wraps windows to be managed by the native Win32 window manager, and also gets rid of the extra desktop root window. ... Or get a little more screwy, start x server on my laptop cygwin, throw wmaker from my win2k box to my laptop, login to sun box and throw xterms to my laptop. Sure, that would work just fine. X is well-designed enough to do such things, even if the remote host has a different binary format. You'll never see that from MS...

RE: How to have more than one X display?
It's the IDE mindset. I have two/more projects whose windows I prefer to be completely segregated. I could use wmaker multiple desktops to achieve that. However, I prefer a complete segregation. Especially when it involves two versions of the same project. Need to prevent myself from inadvertently moving a window onto another desktop. The files of the two versions would be of such similarity that I had edited one version with modification intended for another. Rootless would excercebate (how the h*** do you spell this!) that. My dream xdm: Tabs to separate multiple X screens. Like a multi-desktop but the tabs are managed by xdm not xwm. I know I am cluttering my X?M terminology. I mean, xwin=xdm, wmaker=xwm. I'm sorry I'm not aware what RANDR is and therefore am a little blurry-eyed about that. I'm not sure if Reflection has its configured but uninvoked screen as actually an active window parked far off into the edges of the galaxy. But my impression feels it is not so, as I had not found it in process/window listing utility I once ran. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Joe Krahn ... In Reflection, is the 2nd screen 'live' but not always visible? But, why have two actual screens instead of one large virtual screen? If you don't want to lose your WIn32 desktop space, why not go rootless or MultiWIndow mode? If you want the X desktop space, it would probably be possible to use RANDR to allow dynamic resizing of one screen to fill one or both Win32 Displays. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
Facename fonts vs XLFD fonts
I have an application that by default looks for the Facename font ncenb14. I can over ride the setting by using the Xdefaults and specifying the XLFD (X Logical Font Description) instead. While this works, it's not the ideal situation. I would rather it just found the Facename name by default. This application's fonts work fine when you run it from a Linux or HP console, but not when forwarded back to Cygwin. I tested with xterm to make sure that it could find the font name. When I used the -fn switch it wouldn't find the xcenb14 font, but when I used the -fa it would. Is there a way to make Cygwin look at the Facename and the XLFD? I tried finding some documentation on how X uses fonts and searches for them but really couldn't find much. If anyone has some really good references, let me know also.

GetDC(NULL), GetModuleHandle(NULL), etc.
There are several GetDC(NULL) statements. Should these really be GetDC(hwndScreen)? It might make a difference for two screens with different pixel layouts. GetModuleHandle(NULL) is also in several places. Maybe it's OK, but why not use the hInstance global? These probably are just too low on the importance list for now.

The up/down scrolling action seems to act as left/right arrows. In firefox, using the scroll wheel goes back/forwards a page, for an example. Any idea what to do to fix this? Brian K If this behaviour is consistent across all X applications, you could try using xmodmap: First, use xev to identify which button numbers are associated with the up, down, left right movements. Let's say these are 4, 5, 6 7 respectively. If you want the up button swapping with left, and down swapping with right, you would enter: xmodmap -e pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 you can use xmodmap -pp to verify the change. You should see something like this: $ xmodmap -pp There are 7 pointer buttons defined. PhysicalButton Button Code 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 6 5 7 6 4 7 5 I can't guarantee that this will work with XWin, but this technique works for xorg on Linux, so it's likely to be OK.

Problems with a fresh install
I just installed a fresh version of Cygwin from a mirror site. Despite installing All, and running ssh-host-config there were no /etc/ssh* files created. After the install I tried to chown files to the Administrators group so that other people could update the Cygwin installation if desired. I got many, many errors like this: chown: changing ownership of `/usr/share/doc/lynx/lynx_help/COPYING': No such file or directory $ ls -l /usr/share/doc/lynx/lynx_help/COPYING lrwxrwxrwx 1 luke Users 47 Sep 2 13:48 /usr/share/doc/lynx/lynx_help/COPYING - /tmp/install/INSTALL/usr/share/doc/lynx/COPYING $ ls -l /tmp/install/INSTALL/usr/share/doc/lynx/COPYING ls: /tmp/install/INSTALL/usr/share/doc/lynx/COPYING: No such file or directory $ ls -l /tmp/install ls: /tmp/install: No such file or directory $ ls -l /tmp total 0 Cygwin seems to be running extraordinarily slowly too.

This suggests that /bin/time also took about two seconds for its part of the process. Later, though, the missing files do indeed exist, and speed is okay. Any idea what on earth is going on? Why the failed chmods? Likewise, running ssh-host-config (later) creates the ssh files. It's almost like lots of the files hadn't actually been flushed through onto the filesystem, which seems like crazy talk.

That popup is the result of an SEH exception not being handled by the process and falling through to the system default handler. But Cygwin installs its own SEH handlers so that it can convert those sort of exceptions into signal 11 without the popup. Normally you would not get a popup and it would terminate as on unix with a segmentation fault message and stackdump. But I guess if something internal to Cygwin is getting corrupted then all bets are off. The previous version of Cactid did not have this problem. The one major change in this version of Cactid is that I am using upto 100 process threads and each thread is allocating large amounts of memory using primarily the calloc function. I was wondering if maybe Cygwin is having difficulty making memory available to the calloc function after several threads have chopped up the heap. If that is the case, are there other alternatives? I could use a linked list so that memory fragmentation would occur in smaller chunks, or maybe there are some house keeping functions I can utilize to free up some contiguous blocks of memory or some way to increase the amount of memory available for the heap. Your further comments would be very appreciated.

Re: Segfault in Cactid
Larry Adams wrote: Brian, I am assuming that I can just download the latest cygwin of winsup and then configure/make. What configure/make options should I be using to incorporate debug symbols? http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.programming.html#faq.programming.building-cygwin The default compiler options include -g so you get symbols by default. Note that in recent CVS versions this means a seperate .dbg file. You can also add --enable-debugging to ./configure, but this enables a number of things in the code, not just compiler flags. Grep for #ifdef DEBUGGING in the source for details. Mostly this means more verbose strace ourput and some extra sanity checking. The previous version of Cactid did not have this problem. The one major change in this version of Cactid is that I am using upto 100 process threads and each thread is allocating large amounts of memory using primarily the calloc function. I was wondering if maybe Cygwin is having difficulty making memory available to the calloc function after several threads have chopped up the heap. Until you debug the crash it's all just speculation. It could be a million things. That said, even if the above was the case, Cygwin should not crap its pants and dereference a NULL pointer no matter how bad the heap is thrashed, so something is definitely wrong.

Since you seem relatively unfamiliar with cygwin, let me point out something basic: you must start cygwin before you use octave. Also, the lapack install contains a script to modify the user's path during shell login/startup (/etc/profile.d/lapack.sh). It is necessary to log out and log back in to cygwin at least once following the lapack install in order for this to take effect properly.

GTK2-X11 / gtk+-2.0 is not found after it is installed?
I am trying to build the program PCB, http://pcb.sf.net/ that requires the GTK2 widget set, with some GTK version greater than 2.4.0. I have installed a fresh copy of Cygwin and installed all of the gtk2-x11 packages. When I run this test script: #! /bin/sh if pkg-config --exists gtk+-2.0 = 2.4.0 ; then echo Yes else echo No fi pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0 I get: No [No gtk+ = 2.4.0 was found] Package gobject-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gobject-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'gobject-2.0', required by 'GdkPixbuf', not found Is there a missing dependency I need to install? I have looked at the /lib/pkgconfig/gtk+-2.0.pc file on Cygwin and on my Linux box, they look nearly the same (Linux used $(), Cygwin does not for the paths). The above test script says 'Yes' on Linux and 'No' on Cygwin. I can't get PCB to build until I get a 'Yes' from Cygwin.

using Thawte certificates?
I see an old doc on using Thawte certificates with mutt: http://www.equiraptor.com/smime_mutt_how-to.html but the mutt that comes with cygwin does not seem to have all smime features required for use? I have certificates that work fine on Iexplorer, Firefox and Thunderbird, and I would like to use them in mutt. Has anyone worked on this? Thanks.

Re: Intermittent scp crash on completion, Win98 SE, snapshot

was able to get it to happen twice with the same zip file; another zip

I'm sure this won't be enough information, but I don't know whether
running scp with -vvv is
the thing to do, or strace-ing it, or what. Let me know what I can do
help debug this problem.
If you can get this to fail under strace, that would probably point to
the problem pretty quickly. It looks like something is trying to get
the pid of the process during the final stages of process shutdown after
all of the info about the process has been purged.
