Re: XF86Config
Hi Alexander, By the way, when the official Cygwin/Xfree86 will be able to parse XF86Config (if will be) ? I tried your experimental release. It looks pretty good especially XKB section support. Best regards, Valeriy Glushkov start Xwin with the option -fp unix/:7100. This sets the font path. Parsing of XF86Config is not available in the official Cygwin/Xfree86 server.
Re: setxkbmap failure with cygwin-xfree 4.2.0
Gzip your attachements please ! --- Charles L. Werner [EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit : Greetings, I have attempted to use setxkbmap to change the keyboard layout to a swiss-german layout. Just using the default layout leads to getting standard key codes within the XFree desktop apps (xterm...). Our installation is the latest 4.2.0 XFree86 , up to date cygwin installation (see output of cygcheck attached) under NT-4 sp5 and WIN2K. With the command: setxkbmap -layout de_CH you get the setxkbmap error message: Couldn't interpret _XKB_RULES_NAMES property Use defaults: rules - 'xfree86' model - 'pc101' layout - 'us' Error loading new keyboard description There was also a MS error box that popped up with the message: Failed assertion fds_on_hold !=NULL at line 643 of file /cygnus/netrel/src/cygwin-1.3.10-1/winsup/cygwin/dtable.cc I tried other arguments to setxkbmap but all give the same response, even using the default arguments. xkb files are in /etc/lib/X11/xkb Any suggestions? is some environment variable wrongly set?

Re: crash when modifying .profile in NT and Xserver is running.
Hi, I have a system crash that occured every time I try to modify my /etc/profile with my NT editor while my Xserver is running. I'm using XFree/Xfce. My dump file is attached to the mail. Eric. I have more information about my system crash: - It occured systematically when I saving /etc/profile and XFree is running. It didn't occure with other files or if XFree is not running. - I'm using emacs in Unix mode (no CR/LF) pb. Following a dump analyze that shows that emacs cause the crash.
