Re: Running GIMP under Cygwin (not Win32!)??

2003-03-03 Thread David Huang 
Hi!
I'v uploaded the binary package and patches to 
sf.net(http://sourceforge.net/projects/cygnome).
You can download it from
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=67909&release_id=143989
Have fun!

Hi!
I have compiled GIMP on cygwin successfully, using X-Window system, 
and it works fine.
Of cource, it's easy to get, since native Win32 port works fine.
If you like, please try my little patch, hope helpful.
First you need glib, gtk+, you can build them yourself from sources 
with patches from
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/steven.obrien2/ (contributed and 
maintained by Steven O'Brian).
Or, download glib, gtk+ binary packages directly from the Cygwin GNOME 
project
( http://sourceforge.net/projects/cygnome ), you can find more 
interesting GNOME
binary packages in cygnome-libs-1.4 (include glib, gtk+).

The build steps i have wrote into a file cygbuild.sh, like:

$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome --enable-shared=yes 
--enable-static=no --disable-perl
Please disable perl plugin, with little patched you can compile 
successfully, but running
GIMP hangs when try to load perl plugin script, in my test.

$ mv libtool libtool.old
$ cp /usr/autotool/devel/bin/libtool .
Update libtool to build DLL libs, i use the latest libtool.
$ make
$ make install
if you are luck, you'll get gimp run.
I have to say in my test it's OK, but i can't say it's really OK.
BTW: Please patch lib/glib/include/glibconfig.h,

What versions of GTK+ and glib does gimp require? The version I compiled
used the older 1.2 glib and gtk+.

No. We had no new official release since I posted that patch. And 
we also decided to postpone the pseudorelocation patches until the

I found some problems with shared libXt and libXaw where two pointers were
compared from different shared libraries. This is no problem in linux but 
will fail with cygwin. Maybe this is the problem here too. But to confirm
this you will have to debug the compiled gv.

That all depends on how you start Cygwin/XFree86.  If you follow the 
instructions in the User's Guide and start with either startxwin.bat or 
startxwin.sh, then you need to edit one of those files.  Otherwise you 
are on your own or you can look for more general X references.

Eterm/imlib2 on Cygwin/XFree86, lt_dlopenext() fails.

2003-03-03 Thread Simon Dong 

Has anyone successfully build a fully functional Eterm on Cygwin/XFree86? I
spent most of the weekend trying to build it. I did get quite a bit help
from searching the archive, but I didn't see one single success report.

Anyway here's where I stand:

I installed cygipc, built all the prerequesite for imlib2 and imlib2, and
successfully built Eterm. The problem I have now is that I cannot set any
background bitmap because imlib2 cannot load the loader of the images.

I placed some debugging messages inside imlib2 and rebuilt it, and here's
what I found to be the root cause: it tries to load the loaders dynamically
with lt_dlopenext(), but cannot get a handle. I have all the image loaders
with .a and .la extension under the /usr/local/lib/loaders/image/ directory.
The parameter being passed into lt_dlopenext() is the file name with the
extension being stripped on purpose (e.g.
/usr/local/lib/loaders/image/jpeg), since from the comments lt_dlopenext()
should be able to figure out the right thing to do. But the lt_dlopenext()
returns a NULL.

Attached is my cygcheck output. I also applied the KDE patch to
Cygwin/XFree86 for the shared memory support. The imlib2 adn Eterm versions
are:

imlib2-1.0.6
Eterm-0.9.2

I cross posted to the cygwin group since I thought it could be be related to
libtool. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've done it, but don't remember all the steps to take.
- compile glib
- compile gtk 
- compile gimp

glib and gtk should compile without (or only with minor) problems.
Gimp is more complicated. Watch the configure log! If some libraries
are listed there as missing get them or try to disable the references.
The plugin code used a #ifdef WIN32 statement which changed a referenced
variable to a function call. This change must be disabled for cygwin.
Otherwise the plugins fail with a segfault.  
 
I don't have the sources or patches anymore and I have no ambition to 
compile gimp again. So donÄt ask me if I can help you with patches.

If you are an experienced programmer or you know the gimp architecture well
then you can compile gimp for cygwin. If not, you should better stay with the
win32 version.

Re: Running GIMP under Cygwin (not Win32!)??

2003-03-03 Thread Harold L Hunt II 
Chris,

I can't say that I have compiled the GIMP.  Some have compiled gtk and 
glib, but there are various compromises that must be made in doing so. 
(Last I checked, these libraries could only be built for static 
linking... but that may have changed with the 2.x series).  Do a search 
of the mailing list archives (link at xfree86.cygwin.com), or Google for 
how to compile Gnome for Cygwin.  You should find information from Steve 
Obrien (If I recall his name correctly) that will be of use to you.

Good luck,

Harold

You need to get the XFree86-prog package, if you don't already have it.

And answering:

Philippe,

Works for me (using cygwin-1.3.20, bash-2.05b-8 and perl-5.6.1)...  You
might want to report your problem properly, as described in
.  Also, check that your perl one-liner
outputs exactly the right sequence (by piping it to "od -c", for example).

And answering:

Bob,

If you are asking whether RedHat is offering a Cygwin CD, the answer is
"No":  and
.

However, Cygwin is not a monolithic entity.  I doubt any individual Cygwin
package will take more than 2 hours to download at 128k...  I suggest you
use the "Download from Internet" option of setup.exe to download packages
incrementally, and then use "Install from Local Directory" to install
them.  Or you could search the Cygwin mailing list archives (at
) for "clean_setup" to see the alternative
methods of package management.  There have also been posts from time to
time with instructions on creating your own distribution CD.

Is the layout now correct? If not then it must be a problem with the keymaps or the
layout "se" is not the one you want. I've seen some other "se_XX" layouts in the 
/etc/X11/xkb/symbols directory. Maybe one of these is the correct one.

Control the cygwin terminal with escape sequences

2003-03-03 Thread Philippe Verdret 
Hi, 

i want to control the cygwin terminal with escape sequences generated 
by a Perl program.

I can clear the screen with the echo command:
% echo -e "\033[H\033[J"

but if i write a small inline perl program, i can't:

% perl -e 'print "\033[H\033[J"'

This doesn't work even if i put the screen in 'raw mode' without echo
(with system('stty -echo raw') in the perl program).

Can you help me?

Philippe

  I believe (and I could be wrong) that the idea is that the root window
would not be removed completely, just changed from a taskbar tab to a
system tray icon.  Again, I could be totally off base there, and I don't
want to put words in any of the devs' mouths.  :)

  Alt-tab or Ctrl-Esc should also work (to make some of Windows' GUI
components resurface).  Also, hitting Alt-Space, then n, will minimize
most windows.

Even thought I have a 128K connection, I cannot download Cygwin as there is

I would also like to support the operation a bit.

Does the organisation sell CDs of the downloadable image?
