clipping questions
In the span functions, if pGc-CompositeClip has (nbox = REGION_NUM_RECTS (pRegion)) == 0, what does that indicate? Should we skip rendering the span? Grab 1 rect and hope we can read it? Something else? Rob

Re: too many retransmissions - with Linux Mandrake
Hi,
My Xaccess is set to allow any host to connect, looking through the settings
this would appear to be default under Linux Mandrake.
my xdm-config is set as it should be but, since I am using KDM I don't think
it gets used.
The KDM config file has Enabled=true in the [Xdmcp] section.
I've tried to connect using both IP's and hostnames, I was originally using
IPs, thought this might be the problem so changed to use hostnames.
Help??

Subject: XDM: too many retransmissions - with Linux Mandrake
Hi,
I'm trying to get X to connect to linux mandrake running in a virtual
machine (sadly I don't have access to multiple computers). I'm using the
command line
Xwin -once -query linux -from nt
but X times out with the error XDM: too many retransmissions.
It seems that the linux box is refusing the XDMCP connection.
The archives and FAQ both state that I only need to change the [Xdmcp]
section in /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc file to Enabled=true. Which I
have
done. But still no luck, I've also tried modifying the settings for xdm,
setting the port to connect to as 177, and moving the /usr/bin/kdm
program.
My Xaccess file should allow direct connections from any machines (that
seems to be the default setup).
Any thoughts?

RE: Window Manager Performance...
Well, I also used the lesstif mwm for a while and noticed (using the MS Task Manager) that mwm was consuming an *extraordinary* amount of the CPU. When I first used lesstif, I compiled it all myself, and had no such problems. That, however, was several versions of lesstif ago, and being the lazy soul that I am, I now use the precompiled binaries. I don't know if this is related to the manner in which the latest binaries have been created, or if it is related to code changes in the version upgrades. I never pursued this, having moved on since to IceWM.

I've been using Cygwin/Xfree some some time now, and until recently, always ran the window manager as a local client (as is the case with the stock startxwin scripts). I started out using twm, then moved on the fvwm2, and then most recently Lesstif's mwm. However, a few days ago I ran the window manager off a remote machine with a command sequence something like this: bash XWin.exe (wait for server to finish starting up) bash xhost $remote_host bash rsh $remote_host xterm -display $local_host:0 bash rsh $remote_host mwm -display $local_host:0 [Note: $local_host is an IBM ThinkPad iSeries w/ 700MHz PIII + 256MB SDRAM running Win2k SP2; $remote_host is an IBM RS/6000 Model 170 running AIX4.3; network is 100BaseT Ethernet] After doing this, I noticed a dramatic improvement in the response of X my session (e.g. typing seems to have less lag, movement of windows, scroll bars, etc. appears to be more fluid). I find it surprising that the additional communications overhead of running the window manager remotely is more than made up for by the fact that it's running in a native unix environment (vs. cygwin). I'm curious if other people have had a similar experience. _ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com

Xmod.tgz?
Hi all, My apologies for the wide broadcast of this question, but this is the email address listed on the cygwin/xfree homepage. I just downloaded V4.2.0 of Xfree86 from the primary mirror, but Xmod.tgz seems to be missing from the mirror, while Xinstall.sh still expects the file to exist. I've checked a few other mirrors at random (nas.nasa.gov/mirrors and uiarchive.uiuc.edu) but it isn't on any of those mirrors either. I've also noticed that Xmod.tgz is no longer referenced by the user guide (cygwin.com/xfree/docs/ug/setup-cygwin-xfree-downloading.html) either. Is Xinstall.sh out of date, or is Xmod.tgz missing?
