FW: Problem starting xwin in windows domain
Hi,
I recently started migrating users to a Windows domain. We have all been
using Cygwin for some time but now in the domain I am experiencing problems.
Worse still I can not revert to a working version.
I have tried reinstalling and uninstalling but the same problems persist.
I am probably missing something but I see no reason it won't start and have
been unable to find a solution on the web.
We are completely unable to start XServer, it errors out. I got an error
message saying to contact here.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Paul

Re: Fw: Problem configuring sshd as a service -expr error
Please make sure your mailer doesn't leave raw e-mail addresses in the message -- they're food for spam harvesters. Your cygcheck output looks a bit weird (i.e., you have findutils installed, but find was not found; your path doesn't contain /usr/X11R6/bin even though you've installed XFree86 -- a stale /etc/profile, perhaps?). I'd suggest running cygcheck -cv to see if your installation is corrupted, and if so, which files are missing. As for the error 1062 message -- look in /var/log/sshd.log and the Windows event log and see if there are any clues there.

FW: Problem with OpenSSH build 3.6.1p1-2 on Win2k- Cygwin ver 1.3.22-1
Hi All,
I was previously running version 3.5p1-2 with cygwin 1.3.18-1 with no issues.
Upgrading to the level mentioned above broke several CMD scripts that run mixed
mode, by this I mean they run a combination of WINNT and CYGWIN binaries(example
below). I call the script via plink like so: plink [EMAIL PROTECTED] -i mykey.ppk -2
cmd /c c:\scripts
myscript.bat. It seems the switch in shells renders me incapable of calling cygwin
binaries in an ssh session. A local bash session on the target machine executes the
script correctly. Replacing the new sshd binary with the previous version also
corrects the problem. Any ideas?
**EXAMPLE SCRIPT*

FW: problem: occasional keystroke doubling (a known issue?)
The correct solution if you asked me is to ignore the windows repeat events and use this X feature that is causing the problem. I would say this is the correct thing to do because of the very reason that the feature was included in X in the first place (at least I assume it is the reason). It gives you rates and delays the hardware doesn't provide, especially lower delays than 250ms and 30cps on pc hardware. If you use, `xset r rate 150 80` you can see it work under cygwin. I'm new to windows programming so I have no idea if you can tell windows you only want key down and up events, or if you can even detect and throw away the repeats and let X take care of them. I would suggest that is the way to go if possible. One note though if you fiddle with the rates even on a Linux computer that is heavily loaded it can duplicate keys when you didn't actually hold it long enough for the delay to kick in, so it isn't always foolproof even on Linux.

Now, if I could only find a way to turn this off programmatically, once and for all. This X key repeat feature is completely unnecessary since Windows handles key repeats for us. I tried to interface with the same code that xset interfaces with, but it did not seem that this interface was meant to be built into an X Server. Perhaps someone else can help me figure out how to disable this. It could be a simple as a build flag, but I have never come across it. Harold -- David Fries [EMAIL PROTECTED] (for personal)
Re: FW: problem: occasional keystroke doubling (a known issue?)
David, No need to CC me on replies. Please don't. Fries, David D wrote: The correct solution if you asked me is to ignore the windows repeat events and use this X feature that is causing the problem. I would say this is the correct thing to do because of the very reason that the feature was included in X in the first place (at least I assume it is the reason). It gives you rates and delays the hardware doesn't provide, especially lower delays than 250ms and 30cps on pc hardware. If you use, `xset r rate 150 80` you can see it work under cygwin. We take the approach that we are a Windows application, which means that we act like other Windows applications with respect to key repeats. I believe we would get more complaints about Cygwin/XFree86 not responding to the Windows Control Panel settings than we will ever get about Cygwin/XFree86 not responding to the X key repeat settings. In fact, the evidence so far is that the only people complaining are the ones that are being stung by the X key repeat system, not anyone that doesn't want Windows to handle the keyboard settings. One note though if you fiddle with the rates even on a Linux computer that is heavily loaded it can duplicate keys when you didn't actually hold it long enough for the delay to kick in, so it isn't always foolproof even on Linux. Right, and Cygwin/XFree86 introduces more delays into the system that cause inadvertant key repeats to happen more often than they do on Linux. A lot of people use Cygwin/XFree86 over RDP (Remote Desktop Connection/Terminal Services), which introduces a lot of lag in the keystrokes that Windows handles just fine, but which causes X to think that a key repeat has occurred. In that case, the X key repeat system does nothing but get in the way. I've noticed that the modifiers under cygwin (control, alt, shift etc) show that they repeat under xev just like other keys where they don't on Linux. While input is the topic is it possible to claim the alt and window keys in cygwin? I have fvwm setup to use them a ton and it works great under Linux, but not at all in cygwin. I was debating if it would be useful to let windows still control alt-tab or not. I've seen other programs take control of the window and alt keys, so it is possible, but I have no idea what it would take. It may be useful or it may not. It is most certainly possible on NT-based platforms, but the debate won't get us anywhere. Someone can submit a patch and we can try it out. Until then it is just idle chatter. Harold
FW: Problem with Cygwin DLL: 1003.15.0.0 1003.16.0.0
Hi all, As noone responded to this, and I have since seen minor complaints of not enough information being given, is there anything further I can do to assist in the location and repair of this problem? I have upgraded to 1003.17.0.0 and ensured the problem is also in this version of the dll. Do I have to reboot after upgrade, if the dll has been changed (Win2K)? Thanks, Steve. -Original Message- From: Steve Fairbairn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 25 November 2002 13:07 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Problem with Cygwin DLL: 1003.15.0.0 1003.16.0.0 Hi, I have come across a problem with cygwin which relates to the Windows CreateProcess() function. Tested on Cygwin DLLs: 1003.15.0.0 1003.16.0.0 Windows 2000 sp3 I have a Visual C++ program which uses CreateProcess to launch an executable much like the example provided in the attachment. The example has been hard coded to execute a cygwin compiled binary (ls) as this is what I was attempting to do in the real thing. When the program is run from a dos command prompt, it all works perfectly. However when the program is run from cygwin bash, the launched program (ls) fails with a read exception somewhere in the cygwin dll. If the program is changed to execute a non cygwin-built binary, it all seems to work fine. I also bring your attention to the following lines from the example... /* Something to do with bInheritHandles being FALSE, as when it is TRUE, it works. */ CreateProcess(0, cmd, 0, 0, FALSE, DETACHED_PROCESS | NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS, 0, cwd, StartupInfo, ProcessInformation); When the CreateProcess call is changed so handles are inherited, it all works perfectly. If this is the wrong place to report an issue like this, then please let me know where I should email instead. I couldn't spot any other likely candidates. Regards, Steve Fairbairn. test.c PS.

They are separated with spaces. You'll need to quote the value appropriately. You should really set the value in your system control panel, so that it is set before cygwin1.dll is loaded. However, for things like check_case:* and some others you can set it in your .cshrc or /etc/profile. An example setting would be setenv CYGWIN=$CYGWIN check_case:adjust *** 2) is there anything else i need to do as well to solve this problem? Hard to say. Are the files you're looking for actually there? Does 'dir temp*' do what you want? How about 'cmd /c dir temp*'? *** 3) also, how do i set tcsh as my default shell? do i need a .cshrc file? Depends on where you start it from. If you start it from a shortcut, you can just change the shortcut. If you start rxvt or xterm, you should read the appropriate man page to see how to do that. I'm not sure modifying the shell setting in /etc/passwd will work, but try it anyway (don't forget to back up /etc/passwd in case it gets corrupted). *** 4) if so, does it go in the 'home' directory?

Strange again, I suspected a firewall between this W95 box and the Unix Server, but my network admin says there is no firwall between them. I guess this is not a server problem, but a cygwin problem with your network configuration. The cygwin1.dll tries to get the local IP-address and fails. It then sends an XDMCP query with the local address 0.0.0.0, which the server refuses. bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723 - http://www.WebMailSPro.com - VOTRE service d'email sans pub avec VOTRE nom de domaine

Subject: Problem with cygwin install.
I'm excited to try the software out, but while I was installing it I
received several warnings. I've attached to images for your review.
Do you have an idea, why this could happen ? The archive is valid, unpacking by
hand works.
It seems so, that this file was interpreted as a dir ...
mkdir.cc
snip
if (isadir)
{
if (CreateDirectory (path, 0))
return 0;
gse = GetLastError ();
if (gse != ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND gse != ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)
{
if (gse == ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS)
{
fprintf (stderr,
warning: deleting \%s\ so I can make a directory there\n,
path);
if (DeleteFileA (path))
return mkdir_p (isadir, path);
}
return 1;
}
}
or could this have anything to do with the file name length ? It is the longest
filename in the archive (103 characters).

Re: FW: Problem: extreme speed difference NT4 Win98SE runing Xfree
Hello. Thanks for all the good hints. I am trying to comment them all at once: First of all: The comparison was running Xfree, icewm, nedit and an own application completely under cygwin on the same machine - not outgoing connections. That is exactly my problem: I want to avoid using two computers for my project. Second: Good hint is network listening: my own application (you can find a very early stage on http://www.brunsteinobs.de.vu/ under the XCCD section) uses TCP/IP socket communication to cummunicate with a rabbit core module. While XCCD is running under LinuX (or cygwin), the rabbit programming environtment needs Windows. Third: both systems were compared just ruuning Xfee, icewm and nedit under cygwin without extra IP stuff running. Opening the IP port does not even change anything. Forth: My Win98 machine has DirectX 8.1 which seems to be the latest version available from M$. So I guess it is the difference between NT optimization and Win9x.

I wouldn't be surprised if Win98 was slower in multitasking between the X server and clients especially with the Cygwin library and socket communication. You could test this by running an X client from another machine and comparing NT and Win98 performance. - Ian -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.znark.com/

Thanks for the extremely fast answer - it was about what I feared to hear. It would have been more pleasant to hear about a configuration trap I stumbled into - so it depends on how to define it helps. My problem is, that I try to develop a CCD Camera for astronomical purposes (not really CCD for the moment as I want to try a CMOS imaging sensor). The control software is running under X11 (a very early version can be found on my homepage http://www.brunsteinobs.de.vu/, an update about the project will be done after a short introduction on a meeting in Mai), but the hardware programming environment uses Windows - so I was hoping to use cygwin and X11 to run my control application and nedit to test changes in the hardware. Here at work I use the system to monitor and configure our server and gateway... Anyway: is there any cheap workaround with free or at least cheap server software apart from MiX? Xwin32 runs extremely well but is much to expensive for being used only once a week as a private person? Apart from that: All programmers supporting the cygwin project did a great job. The whole system is getting better and better... I do not much about X-Server internals or Windows internals - but if you need a guinnea pig (hope the spelling is right, I just mean someone to be willing to crash his system - after backing it up) to run some tests, feel free to contact me. Regards, Uwe Harold Hunt wrote: Uwe, Yes, the performance difference is known and expected. Some of the difference is due to optimizations in Cygwin that cannot be used on Windows 95/98/Me and some of the difference is due to the speed of the graphics libraries in Windows 95/98/Me vs. Windows NT/2000. MI/X doesn't run into the graphics speed differences because they use GDI drawing functions which can be significantly accelerated by the graphics card and driver, whereas Cygwin/XFree86 primarily uses large bit block transfers which appear to just be slower on Windows 95/98/Me. We have been working on a version of Cygwin/XFree86 that uses GDI drawing functions directly, but the work is nowhere near complete or even usable. The development of that server can be followed at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/xoncygwin Hope that helps, Harold

A hint, give vnc a try when connecting from your home-pc, can do quite good transfer :-) What link is used BTW when working from home?

FW: problem with keyobord on AIX
Pavel forgot to cc the list. Harold -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 1:28 AM To: Harold Hunt Subject: RE: problem with keyobord on AIX Pavel, I still have no idea what is going on. Is your AIX machine configured to expect the Czech keyboard layout? Or, does your AIX machine expect a US keyboard layout? I don't know which layout it expects, if any. But I use several AIX machines. When I logon on console, some of them have Czech layout and some of them have US layout. But from cygwin the behaviour is the same - US layout with -kb parameter - US layout without -kb parameter and NumLock off - Czech-with-AltGr layout without -kb and NumLock on In fact, I barely understand how the various keyboard layout systems work... nor do I have time to learn the intricacies of them. I don't think I'll have any time within the next year to learn keyboard layouts, so you'd better just work on it yourself if you want any changes made. May be... Sorry, but I am incredibly busy now because I am in my last semester of college. OK, I remember this from my school :-) Pavel
