Re: xemacs: segmentation fault after ctrl-xctrl-c
Sven Severus writes: Hi, I think the reason for the xemacs exit crash has something to do with the 2004-08-18 release of xemacs-sumo / xemacs-mule-sumo packages. I replaced them in an all-up-to-date Cygwin installation with the old 2004-02-02 releases and the exit crash did not occur any more. Well, I have also installed the latest 2 sumos. XEmacs is not crashing for me. But hey, it could of course depend on the special lisp packages you're using from the sumos. Actually I use a lot of them but not all. Is it possible for you to find out which lisp packages you have loaded when the crash occurs. Sure, you're not using all of them ... On the other hand I had a propery running Cygwin installation from end june 2004 on my notebook PC (XP Pro, SP2). I upgraded only the two sumo packages to 2004-08-18 and xemacs crashed on exit. So, please: Can anybody of the experts here tell me, whether this is a bug of the 2004-08-18 releases? If it is not, how can I make it work properly? Is rebase the tool that helps? If yes, how should I apply it in order to avoid any risk for my Cygwin installation? rebasing has definitely nothing to do with the sumo packages, but with the dll's XEmacs is using. Thanks a lot for any answer. Best regards, Sven Ciao Volker

Strange window redraw problem
Hi, We are currently testing a deployment of Cygwin/X for my company's windows-based X server. We currently use X so that Windows users can run apps (typically written with Perl/GTk) on Linux application servers. The deployment is going not bad, but on a couple of systems we're seeing strange corruption of windows: if an X window gets obscured by another X window, then raised to the top, the obscured part doesn't get redrawn. The window's frame gets redrawn but the contents do not. This does not appear to be happen if a non X window obscures the X window. We are running the latest version of the Cygwin X.org server. The systems were all bought from Dell around the same time, so they are all substantially the same. Both systems have GeForce 256 cards with driver version 5.2.1.6; they're both running Win2k and are completely up-to-date with patches. One system is working, one is not. I've tried playing with various combinations of the +/-bs, -su, -wm and -engine parameters to XWin, but to no avail. XWin is being started as XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error I can provide other information if requested. -- Dave Carrigan Seattle, WA, USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.rudedog.org/ | ICQ:161669680 UNIX-Apache-Perl-Linux-Firewalls-LDAP-C-C++-DNS-PalmOS-PostgreSQL-MySQL Dave is currently listening to Agent Orange - America (Living In Darkness) signature.asc Description: Digital signature

cygwin/x symantec antivirus conflict
A while back I mentioned I was experiencing slowdowns under X. http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2004-09/msg00010.html I think the slowdowns may have to do with Symantec Antivirus. 1. Establish remote connection using ssh inside an xterm running under Cygwin/X. 2. Hold down a key (b) and let go (b). Way too many letters get buffered, because there's some sort of delay in transmitting the keypresses. 3. Disable Symantec Antivirus Auto-Protect (via systray applet). 4. Do the keypress test again, and there's no delay. 5. Enable Symantec Antivirus Auto-Protect 6. Do the keypress test again, and the delay is back. Is anyone else running Symantec Antivirus? Is anyone else seeing similar slowdowns? Thanks!
