Re: Audio Related
Thanks for the informative explanation. It would be nice if someone see this and has the audio knowldge to update this area as you said. Thanks Corinna Vinschen On Nov 16 11:09, wynfield wrote I want to add audio output volume control to an application. But, I don't know how to go about it yet. If you know anything about controlling volume from within cygwin applications or have done so, I would appreciate your telling me about it. Cygwin supports a single OSS-like audio device called /dev/dsp. It's always connected to the default Windows audio device. It's not much, but unfortunately we're lacking a developer who's knowledgable in this audio stuff and interested in either extending the /dev/dsp interface to support multiple audio devices, or to modernize this to a more ALSA-like interface.

Re: checkX problem or misunderstanding
Update: checkX does work of course. My problem was: 1. I was setting the DISPLAY environment variable which X11 based clients use and expected checkX to use it as well. 2. I specified the X11 server to try, incorrectly as $ checkX 127.0.0.1:0, without the -d option. For some reason I had it in my head that usage was: checkX [options] server. Hower, checkX works when server is specified with the -d option as documented. E.g. $ checkX -d 127.0.0.1:0 THanks for the input to help me find this. My apologies for not spotting this sooner.

Re: But it is cygwin related.
Comments below: Christopher Faylor wrote: If you're asking how to call cygwin entry points to use Cygwin I/O from an assembly language program then you are on-topic for the mailing list. That's exactly what I asked. It is possible to write a raw assembly language program which does this but, given the amount of confusion evident in the above paragraph you are clearly quite a long way from having the necessary skills to do anything like this. No. I just lack the necessary information to do it. And that is what I am seeking And, perhaps most importantly, there are only a handful of people who would have a clue about how to do this and I'll go out on a limb and say that none of us is interested in attempting to teach you. It wouldn't be teaching me, but providing information to all the cygwin community. But even if we were, an assembly program which relied on a massive DLL doesn't really meet your criteria anyway. Why do you think not? Writing an assembly language program which just uses Windows APIs to write to the console would likely be much easier but that is off-topic for this list. That would be find for me, if the information is there, but wouldn't be much help to other people who would like the same information, if any. There's no use arguing about this. This isn't your mailing list and you don't set the rules. That's a silly thing to say. I, for one am not trying to set any rules. Further arguing will have undesirable consequences for you. If anyone believes that trying to learn and use cygwin is arguing you are far off base. And it doesn't become the cygwin group, to make threats to members of the community, like you just did in the above sentence. p.s.

Re: X11 capturing DISPLAY value
Thanks, but I don't like hard coding something important like that. It might work most of the time, in my case it wouldn't work, my X-window comes up as :1 and it appears sometimes as :0, but mainly one, but if more people were on the machine it cou ld be other values as well. You're right about the background takes time, I'll attempt coordination the timing better and try it.

I could check files in /tmp/.X11-unix/* for date, owner, etc, and hope that the newest one is the right one and extract the number from the name, however if another user started an X window in the meantime I'd get the wrong DISPL AY v alue. Is there a preferred standard way to get this value? Usually :0.0 or something like $(hostname):0.0 will do, unless you have multiple screens or are connecting to a remote host. In the latter case you would not be running startx, so the :0.0 or $(hostname):0.0, or something along those lines, should be fine. I believe it's the usual thing most people do ... As for the above, if you try immediately to examine /tmp/xwin.txt, the answer may not be there yet, since it takes a little while for startx and grep to begin to do their thing and you put at the end of the pipeline, which means to proceed immediately. So there's an inherent shell script programming timing / concurrency race that you would need to solve for this approach to work.

Re: what is interfering texlive?
You probably loaded the windows version of TeXLive, which is basically MiKTeX with a TeX editor and another program. These are made specifically for windows and that means they require windows file and path names. In other words they don't use POSIX compliant pathnames. In order to install a *nix (cygwin) version (more likely up to date than a Windows specfic verson) Cygwin was added as official platform supported (in TL2009) a few month ago.

Yes, Dave is right here. His idea gives a way to building a multi-capable pango. It's because of the -export-symbols-regex ^pango_.* flag, hence _pango_* internal symbols aren't being exported. Well, YO, could have said that he manually, exluded win32 in the configuration. This isn't supposed to be used when building a Win32 Pango, as you'll see from the configure.in where this flag is declared; now you know why. Well Yaakov, you know why. I expected cairo and pango built a configuration of --with-x would be fine, and it should be. You neglected to mention that it was trying to build a win32 and cygwin.dll version at the same time, which it can't, as far as I know. So you explicity said to configure without win32. You are mentioning something that is esoteric. You mentioned below that... My questions are: 1) What is /usr/local/bin/gcc that the OP is using? YO, the gcc version used in not relavant in this case. I checked this. 2) Has the OP built cairo from sources with the Win32 backend instead of the X11 as in our distro? YO, the configuration result is: Cairo is configured and built with:--with-x So is Pango, in which its configuration script upon completion outputs: configuration:backends: Cairo Win32 FreeType X Note, that is has Cairo, Win32, FreeType, and Win32 as backends. Cairo builds these automatically. I can attest that there are no issues building pango with the X11 cairo. So what you probably meant, when you said was cairo built, explicitly exluding win32... Which is probably neceesaary right? If you would please educate me as to just what arguments did you use, when you configured cairo and pango, I could verify your aforementioned attestation. 1.21.3 is from SVN trunk; the latest upstream version is 1.20.3, also in Ports. It's irrelevant though, as this flag has been used for years. (Why isn't the distro Pango updated? X11R7.) Yaakov Well, the YO, is wrong here pango-1.21.3 was not gotten fron SVN's trunk. Is is a newly released version. Not a release candidate, but a public release. See: http://www.pango.org/Download and from there http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pango/ You can also find it at: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pango/1.21/ named appropriately as LATEST-IS-1.21.316-Jun-2008...

RE: copying a million tiny files?
From what Gary mentions. indeed rsync is the best way to go. At least for thinking, on time backups. With rsync, only the first time is slow. For one shot backups of many files,using tar to group them into one and then sending is a good idea. Using xcopy, is kind of silly and wont get you compatiblity.. especially in scripts regards Gary R. Van Sickle [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: Brian Dessent sam reckoner wrote: I'm not exaggerating. I have over one million small files that like to move between disks. The problem is that even getting a directory listing takes forever. Is there a best practice for this? I know it's heresy but if you just want to copy files why not use the native XCOPY? It will not suffer the performance degredation of having to emulate the POSIX stat semantics on every file, just like the native DIR command in a large directory does not take ages because it simply uses FindFirstFile/FindNextFile which are fairly efficient (but do not provide sufficient information to emulate POSIX.) Brian I have a similar situation to the OP (copying many thousands of small files over a fairly slow link), and actually timed using XCOPY vs. Cygwin methods (cp in my case). It didn't make a significant difference. Ultimately what I think you run into in these sorts of situations is that you bump up against the slowness of the link (or physical disk) because, POSIX emulation or not, all your caches do is thrash. -- Gary R.

I don't know who to do this without have the exim user name coming up on the login screen along with the other users. Does anywone know how to accomplish this? In XP Home Edition.

Re: Is there someone offering cygwin paid support?
Marko, the best way for you would be to throw Windows out and use a mature unix like o.s. Cygwin documents that it is not made for secure operation, due to Captial w windows, faults cheers. d. henman Steve Holden [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Marko Loparic wrote: Hello Steve, On 9/17/07, Steve Holden [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Just a quick note, by the way, to question your apparent assumption that paid support will get you any further than using this list! I have already tried the list, some people helped, someone suggested me to use cacls, which certainly put me closer to the solution, but it was not enough. If you have an idea of what else I could try please tell me. DOS commands have no permission problem, emacs for windows also opens the directory without problems, but all cygwin commands get a permission denied error... Sorry, if people like Dave Korn can't help I doubt anything I bring to the party will be of more assistance. I think the people most likely to help are the administrators who put those funky access control lists on the share. I suppose one thing you could do is use a local security policy to audit directory access: that might give you some clue as to why Cygwin processes were being denied access, but there are no guarantees. Auditing on the server might also give you further information. regards Steve -- Steve Holden+1 571 484 6266 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://del.icio.us/steve.holden Sorry, the dog ate my .sigline -- 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/ -- 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/
Re: [itp] Coda filesystem
I am not an expert of current distributed files systems, but for cygwin wouldn't MogileFS be easier to implement (even though its not a fs in and of itslef). From my understanding it only requires perl and mysql I believe. Ref: http://www.danga.com/mogilefs/ Phil Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, This is a request for feedback on whether adding the packages that make up the Coda filesystem would be something that would be supported. I haven't taken the time to produce the packages yet, but would like to know whether it would be worth my time to do so. Regards, Darel Henman
Re: tty dissociation
I don't intend on improving it. The referred to post is rather old and I wanted to verify if it is still valid or if any newer methods came to be since the last URL reference I gave you. I assume from what you wrote that setsid() with no argumentss is still valid, correct?

It's essential for shortcats to be recognized as Cygwin symlinks. Try something along the lines of What is the R/O attribute. Ever heard about DOS attributes? READONLY, SYSTEM, HIDDEN, etc. I was thinking in terms of unix permission where r is read only unless w is also specifed to get write permissions. DOS attributes did not enter my mind. I must have somewhow removed the NTFS*s read only attribute somehow. Its effects are starting to show up. When re-installing with setup People asked for it for interoperability with Windows Explorer. U/WIN uses them, too. There are two of them, one kind with the SYSTEM attribute set, another one which are Windows shortcuts (with .lnk suffix) and R/O DOS attribute set. The SYSTEM type was the only one until 2001, default until 2002, and still produced by setup.exe. The Windows shortcut type is created by Cygwin since 2001 and default since 2002. The R/O attribute is necessary to recognize .lnk files as Cygwin symlinks. This is a measure for speed. Testing the attribute is much faster than opeing the file and reading it all the time. Thanks for the useful explanation.

P.s. should not need all that nonsense below..And sorry to say I am not familiar with this r attribute, except as a read(r)permission. Is the group intentionally trying to be obtuse? You must have removed the R/O attrib yourself at some point, so it needs replacing. try attrib /? for more info. Thanks, I could find attrib, thinking it was a cygwin command, but on reading the mail below, found that is is a w32 system command. www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-10/msg00951.html regards -- 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/
