X server crash with asymptote

2012-05-31 Thread Ken Brown

To reproduce:

1. Install asymptote-2.15-1.

2. Start the X server (1.12.1-1), and run the following command in an xterm:

$ asy -V /usr/share/doc/asymptote/examples/teapot.asy

This should display a teapot in a separate window, but instead it 
crashes the X server.


I've tested with cygwin-1.15 as well as the latest snapshot.  The 
problem doesn't occur with version 1.12.0-5 of the X server.  I'm 
running 64-bit Windows 7.


I assume you'll be able to reproduce this, but I'll send further 
information (log, backtrace, cygcheck output) if you can't.

Re: X server crashes when running VTK-5-8 rendering examples

Hello,

I´ve succesfully compiled vtk-5-8-0 libraries and examples
under cygwin, but the X server crashes when I try to execute
one of the examples under vtk´s Examples/Rendering/Cxx subdir.

The crash happens right after the rendering window creation. The window
stays blank for a couple of seconds and the I get the crash report.
Other then that my X environment is working OK.

cygcheck output and Xwin.log below.

Tried to run cygwin and X
as administrator, with ZoneAlarm disabled, and got the same results.

Thanks in advance for any hint,

Fred



Could you check if previous X server (1.12.0-5) has the same problem ?

Marco

Ubuntu scrollbars don't render in Cygwin

2012-05-31 Thread David Karr
I have an ubuntu 12.0.4 desktop.  I have a Win7 laptop running Cygwin.
I can display windows from the Ubuntu box on the Win7 laptop using the
Cygwin X server, but the window is somewhat degraded.  Specifically,
scrollbars are not rendering properly.  I've used Ubuntu before, but
this is the first time I've seen these odd scrollbar popups that are
used in 12.04.  I'm guessing the Cygwin X server is having trouble
rendering that for some reason.  In the Cygwin view, I see the
slightly thicker vertical bar, but when I hover the mouse over it,
nothing happens.

I'm investigating whether I can configure Ubuntu to use normal
scrollbars, but is there a way to get Cygwin's X server to display
those funky scrollbars better?

Can display remote X window from bash, but not from DOS window

2012-05-31 Thread David Karr
I have a Win7 laptop with Cygwin and a Ubuntu desktop box.  I can ssh
from the laptop with shared keys and X11 forwarding, so that I can run
a simple command line in a Bash shell on the Win7 box and it will open
up the window for the remote process on my Win7 box.

What I'm having trouble with is setting up a Win7 desktop shortcut
that will do this.

I have a simple Bash script called dt (stands for desktop) that
calls ssh and passes the scripts command line parameters to ssh.  As
I said, this works fine when I call it from a Bash shell window.

I wrote a DOS batch script that does something like this:

c:\cygwin\bin\bash -cl =pathprefix=/dt =remote command line=

This bombs with numerous errors.  This is the first one:

(STS:30397): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid (NULL) pointer instance

What's the correct way to do this?

I can't check the previous server easily, but the current server crashes
reliably whit any program exercising the OpenGL interface when the
native acceleration is active (which should only happen in rootless
mode AFAIK).  It doesn't crash or crash far later when software
rendering is active.  An earlier version did not show these symptoms,
but I haven't recorded exactly what version this was and I can't tell if
native OpenGL was even on the cards at that time.

Additionally, anything using X libraries is extremely prone to fork
errors (Xdmcp, xml2 are most often involved).  I#ve fully rebased the
system multiple times, but it still happens (but less often now).

Achim.

Problem with geomview under cygwin

2012-05-31 Thread tilo
Hello everybody. Please, help me!
I'm trying to run SaVi 
(http://personal.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Personal/L.Wood/software/SaVi/)
with Geomview under Cygwin environment 
(http://personal.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Personal/L.Wood/software/SaVi/building-under-

I have followed all the instructions on the page, but one problem occurs when I 
try to run geomview.
I type ./geomview -run $savi1.4.5/savi
or ./geomview -run $c:/cygwin/savi1.4.5/savi

but xwin crashes with report:

A fatal error has occured and Cygwin/X will now exit
