I usually install everything, but always have to unselect two source only packages (setup and gcc-testsuite). Is it possible to remember that they are already installed and not to offer to reinstall them every time? New feature-- probably unlikely given the current difficulty just in

Re: Having XP and KDE desktops togather

2004-12-22 Thread Andrew Schulman
The KDE Desktop occupies whole of XP screen and remains in foreground, can not be moved and can not be iconized. So Windows becomes practically inaccessible until I kill KDE Desktop. Any suggestions to make both desktops co-exist? I use bosskey (http://keir.net/booskey.html) to set up

tunneling X traffic over ssh seems to fail at the four to six hour mark. all the connections shutdown with little reported information. Normal ssh sessions stay running fine. autossh might help. It starts ssh sessions and periodically checks them to make sure that they're still passing

just for grins, what happens with start XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -dpi 100 ? Same. BTW, I assume that start is the CMD.EXE command? I ran the above from CMD.EXE, and got the same result as before.

I don't know what options you have in your startx script, but I have a shortcut in my Windows startup folder with target C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\XWin.exe -multiwindow -clipboard -dpi 100 But that only works if the cygwin dlls are in your PATH. So, put them in. Then you can run other
