OpenGL files
Dear Cygwin/X team, I've just installed Cygwin & Cygwin/X for the first time. The installation worked smoothly and I can run remote X applications (including OpenGL applications successfully. Your X server makes me wonder why we have paid thousands for an incomplete product: Hummingbird's X server. Thanks a lot for such a wonderful product. I'll try and work on the powers that be to make a contribution to the Cygwin team. I have a small question relating to developing OpenGL applications *locally*: I have installed the gcc/++ compiler suite, freeglut library files and the "OpenGL-related files" via the setup program. However, compiling OpenGL programs fails as the linker cannot find the GL libraries. Nor can I when I try looking for libgl.* and libglu.* in the usual locations. (libglut files are there). My questions: - have these files changed names / locations in the Cygwin heirarchy? - or does "OpenGL-related" files refer to other supplementary files but not to the main GL library files - if so - where can I find the GL lib files? Many thanks for any help on this. All the best, Suresh Keswani -- 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/

You are right, i should have checked. So using setxkbmap will probably help. Or not using X11. -- 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/
Has anyone run xdm successfully under cygwin?
I have come back to this problem and have messed around with xdm on a Windows XP home edition using Cygwin 1.5.24(0.156/4/2). It still has similar problems to those I experienced back in 2003. So in the interim has anyone successfully run the program? On this attempt I am running it on a local disk. X -indirect hostname works like expected. (so it is not a comms problems) When I run xdm I run it is in an account with the uid set to 0 (so xdm thinks it is running as root). The problems I am getting are similar to those I got back in 2003. Running xdm in strace allows it to get the Xlogin screen (which still uses the password field in the /etc/password file). I have fixed the winXP NT permissions problems that occur if one logs in as a different user (but for testing purposes I login to the same account as that which initiates xdm process. It will execute the files in ~/.xsession. But on exiting those programs instead of returning to a xlogin screen (or a chooser screen) it returns to a blank cross hatch default X windows screen with no application running. Using tcpdump on another machine I can see no evidence that chooser.exe has been started (even though I have changed /etc/X11/Xaccess to "* CHOOSER BROADCAST" and I still have the problem of it not working at all unless it is run in strace strace xdm -nodeamon -debug 10 So my questions are: 1) Has anyone run xdm successfully under Cygwin? 2) If so any tips for how I can get it to work?

So that I can trace the problems further, I would like to download the source code for xdm and compile it. I looked at the instructions at http://x.cygwin.com/ and could not work out how I can go about downloading xdm sources and supporting libraries. Please could someone point me to a document on how to download the necessary source code, or tell me how to do it. -- 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/
Re: sftp how insert @
@ is not a 8 bit character, so those changes in .inputrc should not be needed. Probably the keyboard layout for X11 is wrong. Cut & paste from any other program should work just fine.
