 It started to work again...!?
 
I know I should buy a computer, but this is what I got as working
environment.
The problem pops up for some time (hours...?) every now and then, and
disappears.
Rebooting doesn't help systematically; i.e. it may help, who knows, but not
every time, at least.

Is there any guidance about how to investigate this?
Obviously, the X server is up and running, only the client cannot connect to
it.
Some small test client which would be easy to debug, and might report the
cause of failure?
Here is the bottom of the XWin.0.log:

...
[  1312.467] winMultiWindowXMsgProc - DISPLAY=:0.0
[  1312.467] winClipboardProc - DISPLAY=:0.0
[  1312.467] winInitMultiWindowWM - XOpenDisplay () returned and
successfully opened the display.
[  1312.467] winMultiWindowXMsgProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and
successfully opened the display.
[  1312.483] winClipboardProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully
opened the display.

Thanks,
Marc

xterm does't handle LINES and COLS correctly anymore

2012-03-20 Thread Voelker, Bernhard 
Since one of the last updates this year, the output
in an xterm is sometimes wrapped after a few columns.
They same applies to the number of lines.

Sometimes it works, i.e. xterm wraps the line when
the content really doesn't fit into the line anymore,
but sometimes the lines are wrapped after 4 or 30
characters.

The effect sometimes appears locally (i.e. in xcygwin),
but happens more often when logging into a remote 
server via SSH. In such a case, the terminal is unusable.

I noticed that LINES and COLS is not set on the cygwin
side, and remotely (2 SLES servers) I get something like
this:
  $ echo LINES:$LINES COLS:$COLS
  LINES:2 COLS:

Setting the LINES before and/or after ssh'ing into
the server sometimes helps, but not very often.

Any ideas?

Thank you  have a nice day,
Berny

P.S. It's Win7, and I start openbox from ~/.xinitrc
via the .bat lines
  chdir /d d:\cygwin\bin
  .\run bash -l -c /bin/startx
