Hi Harold, What do you mean? Do you mean that even after adding a call to check if shm is supported and running that the extension is still installed, even if you return? Or do you mean that looking at the existing code shows that they were never checking for shm support in the first

Just to humor me, can someone else running Cygwin 1.5.3-1 confirm that a simple X11 based hello world program is broken. If confirmed, I will start digging to locate the offending functions, but I'd rather just wait for Harold to release a 1.5.3-1 compiled Xfree86 set of packages. Thanks. On

Ralf -- What happens when you run your cygipc-based build of X11, but do not have the ipc-daemon running? You can't run KDE, of course, but does the Xserver itself still work properly? Can non-KDE X apps work? Xfre has build in support for disabling XIT-SHM support in cases the kernel

Hi all, The appended patch implemented this support for the xfree server. I've found that the XFree86-Bigfont extension is also shm related, which is fixed by the appended patch. As I have looked into this code I was wondering about the extension initialisation code, which doesn't work as

Ralf, Could you try moving the CheckForRunningIPCDaemon function to hw/xwin/winshm.c/winCheckForRunningIPCDaemon ? I am just thinking that the patch is more likely to get included if it doesn't clutter extension files with Cygwin-specific stuff. Harold Ralf Habacker wrote: Ralf -- What

I am not sure. How automagically is the IPC daemon installed? If it requires user intervention, then we cannot really have XShm in the default install. Harold Alexander Gottwald wrote: Harold L Hunt II wrote: Regarding the recent release of Cygwin 1.5.3-1, here is what I am going to do:
