If I just move the window to the right edge of the screen, it is redrawn correctly. The effect also takes place on window maximization - again, I have 40-pixels wide white vertical stripe near the right edge of the window. Without multiwindow, everything works fine - I have fullscreen root window and applications maximized inside it don't have this white stripe.

Strange window redraw problem (Still)
Hi list, Dave Carrigan wrote a letter previously about this issue. ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) My problem is pretty much the same, but i'm not using xwinwm. XWinWM would be workaround for the problem (maybe it makes an additional refrEsh), but it won't solve the issue. This problem exist in -multiwindow mode. I have made some screen shots under http://koli.rulez.org/~smil/xfree - the level of blankness is not the same for all widgetsets. Eg. Motif seems to be more affected and KDE seems to loose rarely one or to lines. (It seems that only fonts get lost, once konsole's tabs but that is very rare) - Moving the mouse on the missing parts would reveal the content. (bug3.jpg) - There are no window tweaking tool installed on this computer. (XP SP1) - Tested with local xclients and sun59 clients. (standard tools like xfontset also affeced) I hope I was able to provide as enough information. If someone has a debug binary I would be happy to make tests with it. (cygcheck's output is uploaded to the above address was well as the xwin.log) -- Cserveny Tamas ps. Sorry for the empty message

It resizes the desktop, so that when a window is maximized, it doesn't cover the buttons. Seems that X server in multiwindow mode gets confused. Just tried X -multiwindow without BrLaunch launched, and it works fine. But it would be nice if it operates correctly with resized desktop. Can you please run with more debug messages and send me the logfile again? No problem. rootless.log Description: Binary data -- With regards, Roman.

BTW moving standard Windows taskbar to the left of the screen causes the same problem. -- With regards, Roman.

I think I'll skip the size adjustment in the native windowmanager modes. The windows are not bound to the workarea and restricting the buffer to that size seems only to cause problems. bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
Re: xemacs: segmentation fault after ctrl-xctrl-c
And XEmacs is really crashing for you even if you don't use this 9 packages ? Is there any hint in the *Message-Log* Buffer which lisp file is getting loaded before you press c-x c-c ? No, it doesn't crash when I move the mentioned directories to a subdirectory but it crashes when any (just one is enough) of these packages is stored in the lisp directory. I started xemacs without a file so every time the cus-face package had been loaded. I don't know where it comes from because I couldn't find a package with that name. Do you have an idea what could be wrong? When I look e.g. at the files in crisp they are from 2003 and earlier so they haven't been touched in the last update but nevertheless they let xemacs crash.

Does Symantec Antivirus has an option to disable scanning for certain programs? Try adding XWin.exe to that list. Good idea, but no dice. I added the entire c:\cygwin\ tree to the Symantec exclusion list, but the slowdown is still there. There's also no difference if you disable network drive scanning, or something called Threat Tracer (the purpose of TT is Identify the source of network share-based virus infections on computers that are running Windows NT/2000/XP operating systems.) This really sucks. I don't want to run without antivirus protection, but the delay is really irritating. Is anybody using Symantec Antivirus and NOT seeing a delay? If so, what version of SA are you using? I have full version 9.0.0.1400, scan engine 1.2.0.13.
different mouse behavior between rootless and multiwindow
Hi, I am working on getting a native Solaris app to run on Windows using Cygwin. Currently, we use Exceed to do this, so if I can get this working properly, I'm sure I could convince our department head to send a donation your way. I have had success with running it rootless, but am having some trouble getting the mouse to behave properly using the multiwindow switch. In this CAD application, the screen is divided in to two parts; the main part is where the drawing is displayed, and the second part is a toolbar off to the right. How it should work: When you click and hold the right mouse button in, a new mouse cursor appears on the toolbar. The original cursor stays where it was before you right-click. You cannot move the new cursor outside of the toolbar region. The purpose of this is so that an engineer can change tools without moving the original mouse pointer. Once you let go of the right mouse button, you regain control of the original cursor exactly where you left it. What is happening: I right click I get the new cursor, but it appears directly over the original cursor rather than over the toolbar, and I can move it freely anywhere inside the window. When I let go of the right mouse button, the old pointer moves to where my mouse is before I regain control of it. Again, using the rootless switch everything works perfectly, but we would really prefer to run it with the Windows window manager. Turning the numlock key on or off does not appear to have an impact on this behavior. I know this is a long shot, but any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Eric

multi head X
Hello, I did a quick search and didn't turn up anything so here goes. I'm running XP with cygwin and cygwin X which is great. I'm just having a problem if I drag a window over to the number 1 display, I can no longer interact with it. Do I need to reconfig for two displays? I think your version is better than exceed by alot other than that. Thanks - Anthony

Bug|RFE: Manually set mouse button count
Hello, At least if XWin is run on notebook, there might be the problem that cygwin incorrectly detects the number of available mouse buttons. This may be the case especially if a 3-button-wheel mouse is attached to a PS/2-port of that notebook, because the internal PS/2-port emulator intermixes external mouse events with touchpad events. In this case, cygwin detects only 2 buttons (I assume the two touchpad buttons), while it should detect 3 buttons. This is usually not a real problem, because cygwin seems to add (by default) 2 buttons (for wheel-up and wheel-down), resultin in a total of 4 buttons. But if the user wants to use the wheel of the attached wheel mouse, the wheel-up-events are properly scheduled to the X clients, but the wheel-down-events are not. If one could manually specifiy the number of available mouse buttons (e.g. by command-line), this problem could be solved. Additionally, a related problem could be solved, too: Even if XWin correctly detects at startup time that there are only 2 mouse buttons, users might plug in a mouse with more buttons later on. Cheers, Xuân.
