RE: Problem with arrow keys in x-based applications on cygwin
Per Thorlacius wrote on Sunday, January 27, 2008 7:30 PM:: The arrow keys are not sending escape sequences, they are entirely ignored. Do you get any keypress events when you press the keys? Try running xev. In the window that opens, press the cursor keys and watch the output. If you get an event when you press the keys, make a note of the keycode. You can then use xmodmap to associate the keycode with a keysym. E.g. my keyboard produces the following keycodes: Left 100 Right 102 Up98 Down 104 Using this information I would create a .xmodmaprc file in my home directory with the following lines: keycode 98 = Up keycode 100 = Left keycode 102 = Right keycode 104 = Down I'm not sure if it matters in this case, but it's best to avoid DOS style CRLF line endings, so don't use notepad to do this (or if you do, run d2u ~/.xmodmaprc afterwards). Run the command xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc to enable the keys. This command may be added to the script you use to start X. Note that I have found it is necessary to wait for Xwin to complete its initialisation, otherwise the command does nothing, so after running Xwin, sleep for a few seconds before running xmodmap.

Erratic performance with Cygserver
Hi, I am helping someone with a system that makes use of the msgsnd and msgrcv calls to xfer messages between components using Queues and Fifos: I/O Listener - Router - Process Module I/O Sender - Router - Process Module The problem is the performance - on a medium-size Unix system (e.g. 4 CPU HP system) they get 600 messages through the system per second, when the Process Module is handling database enquiries. On a 4 CPU windows system with Cygserver (4 x Intel Xeon 3.2GHz, 3.5Gb RAM) they are struggling to get even 4-5 messages through the system in a second, even with a *dummy* Process Module which does no database access, only returning a 'success' message! We have tested with Cygwin 1.5.24-2 and 1.5.25-5 We have turned off Hyperthreading and disabled the anti-virus from scanning the application and cygwin folder structures on the servers, and amended cygserver.conf, but are hitting this wall in the performance. (response msgs can be up to 4096 bytes, I set # kern.ipc.msgssz: Size of segment in bytes. Must be a power of 2 value. # Default: 8, Min: 8, Max: 1024 kern.ipc.msgssz 256 # kern.ipc.msgmnb: Maximum no. of bytes in a single message queue. # Default: 2048, Min: 1, Max: 65535 kern.ipc.msgmnb 65535) I cannot see how to enable any kind of performance monitoring in Cygserver, and through the debug in their system I see that the responses from Cygserver can have significant delays at times, but I can't see any pattern to the delays. Please can anyone suggest what to look into to track down where the problem may be, and what diagnostics / debug could help me? I cannot find any discussions on problems with Cygserver performance on the net, so I have to assume it is a problem with their setup ... but it's happening on their two test servers, and also on site!

pdksh having problems starting native gvim on Vista x64
Hi all, I've a recently installed Cygwin setup on Vista x64 and I've been having problems with pdksh. I've got a x64-build of native gvim installed[1] which pdksh doesn't want to start. On trying to run I get: $ /cygdrive/c/vim/vim71/gvim.exe /bin/pdksh: /cygdrive/c/vim/vim71/gvim.exe: cannot execute - Permission denied $ However, running it via every other shell going (ash, bash, tcsh and csh) is fine and gvim pops up well and good. The exception is zsh, with which I get the following error on invoking: 3 [main] zsh 6168 C:\cygwin\bin\zsh.exe: *** fatal error - unable to remap C:\cygwin\lib\zsh\4.3.4\zsh\complete.dll to same address as parent(0x31) != 0x35 Googling has shown me this thread[2] that mentions rebaseing the DLLs. However, before I go ahead and do this willy-nilly, I did want to confirm that it was the correct thing to do given the the thread as well as the mail threads linked to are a few months to a year old. So questions ultimately are: 1. Has anyone seen the behaviour exhibited by pdksh before, or any idea what could be attemtped to fix it? 2. Is rebasing the right thing to do, and is it just 'rebaseall' I should be executing? Cheers all, Chris...

Re: When sshd is started at /etc/rc.d/init.d .. how to start with windows at bootup
Harry Putnam wrote: In the course of just kind of following my nose during cygwin install I managed to get sshd setup to start restart etc at /etc/rc.d/init.d cmd I like that setup but it seems not to be conducive to working with cygrunsrv or windows native `net start cmd' both of those approaches fail. C:\net start sshd The CYGWIN sshd service is starting. The CYGWIN sshd service could not be started. The service did not report an error. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534 cygrunsrv -S sshd cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062: The service has not been started. But it starts just fine this way: /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd start Starting sshd: [ OK ] That is all fine with me except that I want sshd started on bootup So that I can connect via ssh without having to go to the machine to start sshd. So what kind of mechanism is available to do this? A batch file maybe? If so I may need a little coaching with that too. I think I could probably get close but I don't really know what commands might be requred to get to `/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd start' starting from a windows dos prompt or at least initially from outside bash. use /bin/ssh-host-config script to install ssh as services, its work fine with me -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

I would do chmod a+x /cygdrive/c/vim /cygdrive/c/vim/vim71 /cygdrive/c/vim/vim71/gvim.exe first, and see if it fixes your problem. If that does not work, and the output of ls -l I requested above doesn't help, it would probably be time to look at the strace output. 2. Is rebasing the right thing to do, and is it just 'rebaseall' I should be executing? See /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rebase-2.4.3.README... But rebase is more likely to fix your zsh problem than your pdksh problem.

editing crontab using gvim
Hi, I have gvim installed and when I do: $ crontab -e gvim opens up my crontab. But, it opens it as readonly and saving it requires wq! but then when it exits, I see: $ crontab.exe -e crontab: no changes made to crontab But I did do the changes! Anyways, if I use this command to edit my crontab: $ EDITOR=vim crontab -e then everything is OK but isn't GUI like I want. Any ideas what I can do to resolve this? NOTE: to create my initial crontab, I had to use the latter command.
