Cygwin for exporting CDROM
Dear Sir/Mdm, Is there a way for me to export the CDROM of my PC and allow a remote mount from another unix system (such as Sun or SGI) to read the CDROM data? Thank you.

high CPU load
(note: I sent this out last night but it didn't seem to appear. Forgive me if this is a duplicate post) I'm not sure what has happened but relatively recently I've noticed that the X11 server is consuming inordinate amounts of CPU (70%+) even when it is not doing anything. I've upgraded to the latest cygwin but it didn't change anything. Running on Windows 2000 with all service packs plus security fixes. ideas? ---eric -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
RE: high CPU load
My cygwin/x server processes are at 0% when not used. They are near 0% even when xwin is receiving lots of screen update from the solaris client running SAS. My last cygwin update was two weeks ago. When was your last update and what were your updates? (so that I know what to avoid updating). I am using XP/Pro on Dell Latitude P4 centrino(whatever is that?), where my xwin/wmaker is displayed on an external 2nd monitor at 1792x1344. Are you running wmaker, KDE or native ms windows manager? I had similar problems of high cpu before but I found that my anti-virus s/w was trying to check everything netbeans and cygwin was doing. I forgot how I took care of that. I did not shut any anti-virus process down. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Eric S.

RE: Cygwin for exporting CDROM
I think you should ask the cygwin apps people rather than this cywin/x group. There is something like nfs which runs off cygwin. I believe so. IMHrO (In my horrible observation) cygwin/x is just another app (like the nfs app I I believe exists) executing on cygwin. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of clresid Sent: Fri, August 26, 2005 2:14 AM To: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com Subject: Cygwin for exporting CDROM Dear Sir/Mdm, Is there a way for me to export the CDROM of my PC and allow a remote mount from another unix system (such as Sun or SGI) to read the CDROM data?

Wrong list, redirected. This has nothing to do with Cygwin/X. Please remove cygwin-xfree at cygwin dot com from further discussion.

Icons
The newly built server does not leave a 'zombie' tray icon any longer. But, I still cannot get the XWinrc the set icons for client windows.Has anyone gotten this to work? Also, does XWin support X client defined icons? I don't recall seeing anything but the X icon, but maybe I just haven't run the right X program.

Problem commands cygwin
Hi, I downloaded CygWin and installed, with base and X11 packages. If i use the startxwin.bat and get error below. So I went to FAQ and DOCs to solve the problem about opening fonts. Now, I open a console with bash --login -i and it doesn´t exist mount, umount, ls command. If i type any command before i get this error: bash: mount: Command not found bash: ls Command not found The only commands works I found are help, exit. :) So i can´t solve the problem, whats happend?
