Help about xorg-x11-fnts
Hello, I have downloaded xorg-x11-fonts-6.8 but I don't know how to compile it.There is no typical Makefile and no configure script.Please explain me step by step how to compile it and get use of X11 in Cygwin.I have downloaded all other needed packages But it is very difficult for me to download huge 16 MB xorg-x11-fnts binary file. I copied the package to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts but again When I try to run X I get error about 'fixed font'. What should I do? Thanks

I copied the package to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts Don't copy it -- use the Cygwin setup program to install it. The X.Org X packages use Imakefiles instead of Makefiles -- there's adequate documentation on X.org. But read on. but again When I try to run X I get error about 'fixed font'. What should I do? Normally, you'd be referred to the Cygwin/X FAQ at http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof. However, in this case, that would be useless, as you didn't use a prescribed procedure to install the packages, so anything could be happening. This kind of installation isn't (and cannot be) supported on the Cygwin lists. Igor P.S.

Cygwin-Xfree 6.8.2.0-1 - Keyboard problem with Matlab 6.X
Hi all, I actually use Cygwin/X to display software from remote Unix servers. It really works fine except with matlab 6 : When I launch matlab, the main window appears on my local display but the keyboard seems inactive. (I cannot type anything inside the matlab's command window) Moreover, a left click is a paste (?), middle is also paste while the right click opens correctly the context menu. I can also notice that the statusbar (at the bottom of the matlab window) stays on initializing and never switches to Ready. I've found some keyboard problems on the mathworks' web site, but only for some specific keys like numpad and those workarounds don't work for me. Is it a known problem ? Is there something to do ?

RE: Problems running OpenGL program on Cygwin
Dear List Members, Thanks for the responses from Alexander Gottwald and Reid Thompson. Before I could try their suggestions out, I had a crash and had to reinstall Cygwin. While doing so, I noticed that the User's Guide suggested starting Cygwin-X with the MS-DOS batch file startxwin.bat rather than with xinit. Now everything works just fine and I see the cube from cube.c! Larry Griffith
Duplication error upon startx with XWin :0; No terminal with XWin :1
First of all, thanks to Alexander and Igor for responding to my last message. I'm edging my way forward, but haven't seen the light just yet. I'm still not having much success running startx or xdmcp. It's even possible that some of what I am observing is perfectly healthy, and it is my expectations or understanding of the program that are wrong.

The display number refers to the TCP port (6000+$n) and the unix socket /tmp/.X11-unix/X$n. If you try to start more than one xserver with the same display it will fail to bind to the TCP port but create the unix socket anyway. This leads to strange results, so we added the check with the mutex.

I'm going to venture a guess and say that it's not simply an xterm, but an xterm running bash[*] that doesn't work, and direct you to http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_3.html#SEC48. [*] bash uses readline, and, most likely, so does the python interpreter environment (top-level?). Your guess is right. At which point this stops being an X-related problem, and is better discussed on the main list. I've set the Reply-To: accordingly (though the xfree list is likely to add another pointing to itself). I have followed the link and adapt to my specific need but it seems that I have missed something. Accented characters are printed as if convert-meta is set to on. As an example e (e acute) is displayed as \351. Displayed by what? If you type echo é at the bash prompt, does that display properly? What about echo -e '\0351'?

RE: Cygwin doesn't recognize the Canadian French keyboard
In Xterm, running bash, the result is: $ echo \351 e (e acute is displayed correctly) $ bind -v | grep meta set convert-meta off set input-meta off set meta-flag off set output-meta off My complete .bashrc is (I have removed only the line beginning by #): # User dependent .bashrc file eval 'dircolors -b' alias whereis=which alias xterm='xterm -sl 5000' # Requis pour accent francais dans certaines applications alias less='less -r' alias ls='ls -F --color=tty --show-control-chars' export LANG=fr export LC_ALL=fr_CA export LC_CTYPE=iso-8859-1 export OUTPUT_CHARSET=iso-8859-1 export LESSCHARSET=iso8859 # Requis lorsque la dedection automatique de Xwin ne fonctionne pas setxkbmap ca_enhanced On Thu, 7 Jul 2005, Igor Pechtchanski wrote: At which point this stops being an X-related problem, and is better discussed on the main list.
