RE: Basic question X - ways to skin a ... mouse
I think I've got it wrong and Brian Dessent is right. The util is the intellimouse driver. Which is why I could not find it at Logitech. On the other hand, I advise you to keep your double-click assignment for cygwin as well, and get accustomed to dual-click emulating double-click. The reason being, when I sat on a sun-sparc or aix using their mouse, the native double-click action is effortless. However, connecting to those stations using cygwin/x or reflection/x or eXceed, I need to click extremely fast to effect a double-click. Of course, I could configure xp to widen the interval of double-click recognition. Doing that, you would realise that a second in cygwin/x (reflection & eXceed as well) is but a thousand years on XP desktop. Most unix visual applications require double- clicking, and even Motif's own dtfile. X-Free people ought to look into the difference between XP mouse interval and remote unix interval. Is this an X-Free issue or a cygwin/x issue? I tend to think it's a cygwin issue. X-Free is normally used on Linux without having a user shift between MSWin and XWin. Is there a worster place in this country than Worcester, Mass. (besides Gary, Indiana)? Is there a more beautiful place than Bar Habor, Maine? One is heaven, the other h#ll. But having to vacillate between the two on a weekly basis is purgatory. Is there better loyalty to a football club than to ManchU, besides L'pool? One was pure elegance, the other pure brute. But having had to vacillate between the two had been pure torture. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Herbert Eppel Sent: Thu, September 29, 2005 12:12 AM To: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com Subject: Re: Basic question X - ways to skin a ... mouse > Gotta go.

Doesn't anyone moderate this list. This is a Cygwin list. It is not a spammers list. Most people on list list are not interested in your crap advertising. We already have legitimate degrees.

Is your numlock on? That is often the source of these types of problems (it is treated as a modifier key, like shift/control/alt/meta/etc.).

Emacs (and xterm) crashing
Hi, I have the same problem that was reported by Zdzislaw Meglicki in June and July: emacs sometimes just crashes. I get the message: "X protocol error: BadIDChoice (invalid resource ID chosen for this connection) on protocol request 1" Mostly this happens when I try to start dired on a directory. This happens both on my machine at work (Windows XP) and my machine at home (Windows 2000). I installed cygwin on my home machine yesterday for the first time in this installation of Windows, and I'm getting the same crashes as I get at work. Actually this also happens when I click on an xterm window to get focus sometimes. Any clues? Do others also experience this? -Robert -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
3-Button wheel mouse application problem with Cygwin-Xorg
Hi all, I have difficulties running a specific X application which runs in the Xorg X server. The problem is that in some specific areas of this app the right mouse button click refuses to open the related menu over an object and thus renders the app unusable with cygwin-xorg. The problem is only in this app - all other right clicks elsewhere work fine, I think the app is poorly written but unfortunately it is the most important gui application for my work and I cannot stop to use it. The same problem also exists in every Xorg linux installation when using 3-button mouse with scroll enabled. The only workaround so far is to force the Linux Xorg to think I use 2-button mouse thus losing all the fancy scrolling and the third button. My guess is that there is some minor difference between Xorg and Xfree86 Xservers, because the app works fine on Xfree86 linux boxes OR on Xorg boxes with 2-button mice. Changing the Linux xorg.conf to this works around the problem: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Protocol" "ps/2" <--- config working OK with the app # Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2" <--- this is the old config # Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Please, can you help me with advice or other useful information, how can I force the cygwin Xorg server to think I have 2-button mouse? I looked at all the options listed in the User manual, especially was interested in -emulate3buttons (the guess was that Xorg will assume I have 2-button mouse if I requested this emulation option) but nothing helped. The other option is if I could install an older cygwin X release using the Xfree server, it haven't shown problems with the app in linux boxes before and other X servers (namely Exceed) run well with the problematic app on the same Windows configuration. - If I summarise my question: - is there a way to force Xorg in 2-button mouse "mode" config ? - if not, can I get an older x-cygwin distribution which uses Xfree instead of Xorg from some site. I didn't manage to find any using google or cygwin site. Thank you in advance for reading this mail and for helping me!
