Back in January I noticed the performance of Cygwin, and Cygwin/Xfree86 in
particular, went down the tubes. I posted to the general cygwin mailing
list since all things cygwin were affected. Here's a link to the root of
the thread. You can follow it to conclusion by hitting the "Thread Next"
There is a problem with menus in the -multiwindow
mode, i have noticed in emacs. Try starting emacs
-display :0 and then clicking many menus, you should
eventually see blocks of windows that do not go away.
There are drawing problems, the emacs window becomes
corrupted, blocks of the emacs window a

Just a quick question, why is /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts separately
mounted? Is it to make sure that it is binary mounted or?

Thak you so much, Igor. That problem is resolved, thanks to your help.
What really brings a smile to my face, though, is your e-mail address. See,
I'm a first-semester sophmore in NYU, and for some reason I find great irony
in that the person who helped me with this problem was another NYU student

After some digging around and manual unzipping and untaring, I've narrowed
down my installation problem to this: I can't make a directory named "fonts"
in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11, which is where it would be put by the installer. The
funny thing is that if I were to call it "font", it works just fine. Wh

I'm not sure if this is a cygwin emacs problem or a cygwin XFree

When I use the -multiwindow option in XWin, I get an intermitent focus

windows useless.

Klaus,
FYI, HOME is set in the default /etc/profile... When you start from the
Cygwin bash window, bash will have executed /etc/profile, and you have the
right $HOME. If you run from a batch file, /etc/profile would not have
been executed, and $HOME not set. Try putting 'bash --login -c "wmaker

Hi,
I'm trying to use XWin 4.2.0-26 on Win 2k to log in to a few
Linux/Solaris boxes using XDMCP. Everything works fine (i.e. I'm getting
the login window and I can enter my user name and password) until I
reach the point in my xsession where I'm adding a font server to the
font path using this co
I can't get it to work.
My installation of cygwin is in D:\gb\cygwin
I saved the file in D:\gb\cygwin\etc\X11\XF86Config-4
I start x by double-click the file D:\gb\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\startxwin.bat
I still have an american keyboard.
What is wrong?

Hi hjb,
this was the sollution!
Actually I had two problems:
1. When I installed cygwin, it didn't create a 'good' home directory. It
cretared a directory '/usr/bin/%USERPROFILE%' because my Windows Home is on a
different drive than my cygwin installation.
2. The correct path to HOME had to be set

take my startxwin.bat as an example. Cygwin is installed on d:\cygwin. The
