Server Test Series - Test62 available
I won't have time to do the formal email release announcement until tonight, but Test62 is available and should be making its way out to the mirrors (it's also available from msu.edu already). Test62 is also known as XFree86-xserv-4.2.0-9 in Cygwin's setup.exe (you have to manually select that version and you then might have to manually check the 'Bin' box next to the version). Changes and links for downloading: http://xfree86.cygwin.com/devel/shadow/changelog.html Instructions for installing without Cygwin's setup.exe: http://xfree86.cygwin.com/devel/shadow/ I need people to test Test62 with Windows running in 15bpp and 24bpp color modes.Not all video hardware support those modes, so don't worry about it if you can't set Windows to those color depths. Oh, and I forgot to put in the Change Log that we now link to comctl32.dll which contains the _TrackMouseEvent function that either calls TrackMouseEvent in user32.dll or it emulates the functionality. *** If you have *Windows 95*, you must have Internet Explorer 3.0 or greater installed to use Cygwin/XFree86, as this installs a new version of comctl32.dll that contains _TrackMouseEvent *** At some point in the future we may get a pointer to _TrackMouseEvent at runtime, which will remove the dependency on IE 3.0+ for Windows 95; of course, we might never get around to it if there is no demand for it. Thanks for testing, Harold

Nope, It is shipped with I.E. 2.0. Only in win95oemsr2 a.k.a. Win95b did I.E. 3.0 start shipping.

Re: Server Test Series - Test62 available
Sylvain, All I can tell you is that in Windows 95 I know that IE 2.0 was a download (I don't remember if there actually was an IE 1.0) and IE 3.0 was definitely a download. Perhaps this was different for localized versions of Windows (since they usually ship much later than the U.S. English version), but there was no IE in the original U.S. English Windows 95.
