Keybord layout under X mode
I installed Cygwin 64 bit on my laptop. This one has a Belgian keyboard but in graphic mode the default keyboard is a Belgian keyboard. How do I change this configuration? Thank you...

Re: XRaiseWindow for activating windows in multiwindow mode In-Reply-To: 53a2b675.3020...@gmx.de
I used my patch from 2011 every day for the last three years and it worked always without any problems. I was also able to incorporate this patch into the newest cygwin x server running under 64-bit cygwin without any problems. See also: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2011-08/msg00034.html https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2011-09/msg0.html https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2011-09/msg3.html I don't understand, why this patch was not included into the official cygwin-x-server. Of course it would be nice, if a better solution was available. For pragmatic reasons it would be nice to include this patch into official cygwin x server until a better solution is available. How can we get this rolled into the release? -- 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/

I played around and figured out that the problem can be solved by invoking the windows function SetForegroundWindow if a top level window is to be restacked and has no previous sibling. I enclose the patch in this email. It works fine for me, but I'm not sure if it has any side effects for other configurations or usage patterns. Thanks for looking into this, and for the patch. There definitely are some problems in this area, but I'm not sure this is the 'correct' fix, though. The code as it stands is the product of some ... erm ... historical compromises. If I am reading the code correctly, it looks like currently no attempt is made to synchronize changes in the X window Z-order (e.g. made by XRaiseWindow()) to the native Windows window Z-order, and the comment in [1] seems to bear this out. The code which perhaps would do this is in the disabled branch of the #if/#else/#endif in winRestackWindowMultiWindow() The relevant thread seems to be [2] and the relevant change seems to be [3], but I can't reconstruct the reasoning behind it. As discussed in the thread [2] various scenarios, e.g. AOT windows, native windows interleaved with X windows in the native Z order, Windows with focus-follows-mouse enabled via TweakUI all need testing after trying to fix this, to ensure you haven't regressed them.

Best regards, Oliver Is there a fix planned for this? I too use applications that make use of XRaiseWindow to navigate around multiple windows, and it doesn't work. Anyone have any info on this issue?? Thanks!

bug and patch for xfig/xfig-lib 3.2.5b-2 -- from RedHat 806689
Latest update of xfig 3.2.5b-2 in Cygwin 1.7 predates the problem introduced by a security revision to ghostscript that changed the handling of relative paths. The revised ghostscript is incorporated in Cygwin 1.7, hence xfig reads but fails to render eps files. The present behavior of xfig in Cygwin upon attempting an import of an eps file is identical to the bug reported in RedHat bugzilla Bug 806689 at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806689 The bug was identified March 25, 2012. A patch was presented April 04 for readeps.c https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=575230action=diff The official patch and the patched xfig 3.2.5-23 were released June 20 by the bug report Bug 806689 at the link above. The diff file for the patch for readeps.c is at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=575230 Many thanks to Dr. Volker Zell and to Corinna Vinschen for keeping the X11 workhorses alive and well. I have the legacy Cygwin running on a separate machine and use that distribution for a full-function xfig. vince patrick -- 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/
startx - no keyboard or mouse focus with single xterm, repeatable error - WORKAROUND
I've found a better workaround for this problem which works without needing to calculate the correct placement of a remedial xterm. Install the xsetroot package and run the following once the X server has started up: # Traditional X11 X-shaped cursor xsetroot -cursor_name X_cursor or # Normal left-pointing arrow cursor xsetroot -cursor_name left_ptr Setting the cursor in this way fixes both the keyboard focus and missing pointer problems. Also - can anyone tell me how to respond correctly to messages in a digest or from the mailing list archive? I've just pasted in the subject heading for this email and Scott's original email below (minus the email addresses), but I'm guessing this email won't show up in the right thread location in the overal email structure of the archive.

Mario's suggestion of startxwin doesn't solve the problem because startxwin doesn't allow single root window mode. Another minimal way to demonstrate the problem: DISPLAY=:0; export DISPLAY XWin twm notice that twm doesn't have focus, and pressing button1 on the root window doesn't show a menu. Howewver if you then force twm to ask where to place a window by doing: xclock then once the window has been placed I can see the button1 menu, and subsequent xterms etc work properly.

Problem with basic startx and xterm - no cursor or focus
Hi list, A slightly more pared-down version of a question I've posed previously. From a new Cygwin install on Windows 7 running 1024x768 resolution, compare the result of the following two commands run from a Cygwin terminal: startx /usr/bin/xterm -- -logfile broken.log startx /usr/bin/xterm -geometry 80x50+494+51 -- -logfile works.log The first command produces a single unmanaged xterm. No X11 cursor is visible and the xterm is unable to receive input focus. It is not possible to anticipate where the cursor ought to be and give the xterm focus. Unusable. The second command produces a single unmanaged xterm. The X11 cursor is visible and the xterm is able to receive input focus. Works as expected. This seems to be a fairly fundamental problem, and the placement of the xterm determines whether the entire X.org session is usable or not. Does anyone know anything about this problem?

startx - no keyboard or mouse focus with single xterm, repeatable error
I've observed a problem whereby a single-screen X11 session started with startx or Xwin prevents a single xterm from being started in a usable state (no keyboard or mouse focus), but the problem goes away if the xterm is placed in a *particular area on the screen*. It's a new fresh Cygwin install. Here's the command I'm using: startx /usr/bin/xterm This opens a single-window X11 server populated with one xterm. Within the X11 server window, the cursor is not visible and neither mouse focus or keyboard focus is available. Even with twm running, the situation is the same: startx /usr/bin/xterm -e twm Tested on: Windows XP SP3 32-bit (running under VirtualBox on a Linux host, 1024x768 resolution, 32bpp and 16bpp) Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit (running under VMware ESX 3.x via an RDP remote desktop session, 1132x778 resolution, 16bpp). Here is the strange thing. On both installations I can get everything working fine by running the xterm like this: startx /usr/bin/xterm -g 40x40-xxx+51 with xxx set to 257 or more, up to an upper bound of 508, after which it stops working again. This range seems to depend on the horizontal resolution of the X11 server window, the example above using 1024x768 32bpp, and basic testing seems to suggest that xxx needs to be just over 25% of the horizontal resolution. The vertical resolution of the X11 server window doesn't seem to have a bearing on the issue. So - it seems that the problem can be side-stepped by popping up an xterm in the area of the screen just beyond the 25% mark on the horizontal access, and then immediately closing it again, after which everything is fine. The fact that it's such a repeatable error is interesting! Any insights appreciated.

Background-color of bash

So when I do 'startx' at the cygwin shell, I get the X terminal, which leads to programs like ddd, emacs etc. etc. This terminal's background is default to the color white. How do I change this? Further, I would like to change the colors of directories and executables for easier identification.

Re: Background-color of bash
Thanks Tom, The former ended up being a symbolic link to the latter. So I made changes to the latter, specifically uncommented 'light foreground, dark background' settings. Closed everything out and did 'startx' to find that nothing was changed - I still had a light background with dark lettering(default).

problem displaying Java GUI
Hello, I've looked in the archives for this list and found two or three similar issues but no resolution. I am running Cygwin on Windows 2000 and connecting to a Solaris box. I can connect via ssh and run applications like xterm, xclock, and xcalc successfully. Running my own Java code, compiled on the Solaris machine, fails to display on my Windows machine. I get the following message: Warning: Cannot convert string -monotype-arial-regular-r-normal--*-140-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1 to type FontStruct then nothing. This behavior occurs with both the -X and -Y ssh switches. Has anyone solved this problem?

Removing the line: JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true); from my code allowed the GUI to run and be displayed on Windows. This suggests that the problem lies with the Solaris JDK rather than Cygwin.

Re: multiwindow + XDMCP + X0.hosts == crash

multiwindow + XDMCP + X0.hosts == crash
This is with Cygwin 1.3.22, XFree86-base 4.2.0-1, and XFree86-xserv 4.2.0-42. The crash occurs both with Windows 2000 and XP. I downloaded Cygwin+XFree86 yesterday, and I am able to crash XWin.exe routinely. To reproduce on a fresh Cygwin+XFree86 installation, do: echo localhost /etc/X0.hosts XWin -multiwindow -query remotehost ...where remotehost is a machine running an XDMCP server. Things appear to work at first. But within a few seconds, XWin.exe crashes with an access violation. This does not happen if I remove /etc/X0.hosts. (Are you wondering why I want to do this? I want to run xwinclip, which must run locally, but I also want to use XDMCP to connect to remote machines. When I start XWin with the -query, -indirect, or -broadcast options, it does not permit localhost to connect.) Any suggestions would be appreciated. Also, I would be glad to provide any additional information needed to reproduce and/or debug this problem. Thank you! - Pat
Window Maker received signal 11
I just installed the latest version of XFree86 and made 2 changes to the startxwin.bat file to access our servers. When I open this file I get the message: Fatal error Window maker received signal 11. This fatal error occurred probably due to a bug.

Re: XDCMP
Joop- Thanks for the reply. I made the changes you specified, but still no joy. Digging a little deeper into the Xsetup script, I noticed the call to domainname. This system (as it turns out) was not properly setup on a domaindomainname was returning null. Running domainname and adding the server to the appropriate domain resolved my problem. I'm still uncertain why it worked properly on one of the windows systems, but now I'm *finally* humming along on all. Thanks! - Patrick At 01:30 PM 2/18/2002 +0100, Joop wrote: You wrote: First, some new info -- I accidentally left a hung session open overnight and returned to find the CDE login window! It turns out that it *does* work, but takes roughly 15 - 20minutes before the actual login window appears on the non-working systems. Additionally, some apps don't appear to work properly even after the login succeeds. However, if I use the same login on the working system, all apps work as expected. The error messages lead me to believe it is a font issue of some kindwhich appears to be supported by looking at a successful login vs. a hung one...the line it's hung up on appears to do with fonts. On Solaris 8, we are connecting through the server process dtlogin. When running that in debug mode, I find that the difference between the hanging machines and the working one is: -- snip -- (chi70:0) setLang() - Current Lang = C (chi70:0) setLang() - Desired Lang = C (chi70:0) setLang() - Locale has NOT changed (chi70:0) LANG=C (chi70:0) Source(): /usr/dt/config/Xsetup This is where it hangs...when I connect with the working system, it is identical (except for IP address) but continues after the Source() line as follows: --snip-- (chi54:0) ApplyFontPathMods() for chi54.chicago.jgsullivan.com:0 (chi54:0) Foreign display (chi54:0) setLang () (chi54:0) setLang() - Current Lang = C (chi54:0) setLang() - Desired Lang = C (chi54:0) setLang() - Locale has NOT changed (chi54:0) LANG=C (chi54:0) Greeter environment: . . . --snip-- Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated. See message msg00922 from me which says: I would to like to add the following: I had no problems connecting to Solaris8 using Reflection but using Xfree didn't work except on one server. After alot of playing around I seemed to have found the problem. If LOCALE is set to anything else then C then I can't connect using XFree. Solution: copy (onSolaris box) /usr/dt to /etc/dt and edit Xconfig, change LANG from undef to C. -- The commandline I use to start XDCMP from my windows box is the following: c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\XWin.exe -query %1 -from 195.193.4.46 -fp tcp/%1:7100 -screen 0 800 600 This part of a batch file which asks for input which replaces the %1. Using this I have managed to strip my cygwin+Xwin installation down to ~4Mb ;-) Joop -- Joop [EMAIL PROTECTED]
