Re: setup PATH variable by PATH=%PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin
The statement should read: PATH=%PATH%:/usr/X11R6/bin Note the trailing % on PATH. That is a Windowism.

RE: X application fails
Another option, if it's only 1 app you have problems with is to run an X VNC Server session on your hpux box and then run the VNC Client on your windows box to see the app. I was having some problems with Sun's Workshop Debugger under Cygwin/X, and that was my solution.

Re: I have some problems whit my cygwin/x.
Have you installed the xterm package? If you have installed the xterm package, then you either need to add /usr/x11r6/bin to your path (And any scripts that might be used to invoke xterm), or create a soft link from /usr/x11r6/bin/xterm.exe to /usr/bin/xterm.exe.

Re: WMaker 0.90 broken?
Well, it does seem to be a font issue. I used setup, and did a re-install of a couple of x11 font packages and everthing seems to be working just fine. On a side note, ipc-daemon2 does not seem to provide whatever is needed by MIT-SHM, as I get that message, whether I have ipc-daemon2 started or not. I also think it's not a goodness that using setup to handle an upgrade breaks the fonts package(s) and causes system failures But then, that's just my opinion, and as we all know, opinion are like rear-ends Everyone has one, and they are usually all full of ..

Re: Can't get startwin.bat to work
Have you tried to open up a cygwin shell, and then starting up an xterm, to see if it might just be there, awaiting connections? If you open in multiwindow mode (native mode by default), then I wouldn't expect anything to happen until your X Server actually has a client window to display. open up a cygwin bash shell, make sure your DISPLAY is set, or give the -display option to some xclient (xterm, xclock, etc), and see if it pops up on your desktop.

xtermcontrol --deiconify/--raise/--lower don't work in multiwindow mode
Hi, I have been working with the author of xtermcontrol to get it working nicely under Cygwin, and it seems to be working except for 3 issues I have noticed. (And I only noticed them as a fluke). Normally I run my X in fullscreen mode, using wmaker as my WindowManager. When I make xtermcontrol, and then do a 'make test', all the tests run as expected, and to completion. HOWEVER, when I get rid of .xserverrc and .xinitrc, and then do startx using native multiwindow mode, 'make test' does not quite work as expected. All color mappings work, but I have noticed that --deiconify, --raise and --lower do not have any effect. I was going to see if I could figure out where what's broken, but the X base is so huge, I'm not sure where to even start looking. Could someone look into this and see if these are broken, or could they point me to the proper place in the code base to look for myself? Thanks.
Re: BScreen::BScreen: an error occcurred while querying the X server
Do you have a .xinitrc that is starting a window manager? If you want to use startx and want to use a window manager via .xinitrc (such as fvwm2 or wmaker), then you also need to add a .xserverrc that invokes XWin WITHOUT the multiwindow option: e.g. $ cat .xserverrc exec X :0 -clipboard $ cat .xinitrc exec wmaker On Fri, 24 Sep 2004 11:59:09 -0400, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, Am having difficulty getting this email through.

Problem with port of xtermcontrol
Hi, I am trying to get xtermcontrol working under cygwin, and have had some limited success. First off, to get past the initial configure issues, I ran configure on a linux box, and then brought over the entire directory tree to my cygwin box, and hand modified the Makefiles to use the proper cygwin libraries for compiling/linking. That being said, I have had limited success with the port. I can use xtermcontrol to set attributes (--fg, --bg, etc). HOWEVER.. When I try to retrieve the current values, it seems to hang. (--get-fg, --get-bg). The issue seems to be the read statement in tty_read(). They hang, and never see the response coming back. I have tried doing a direct echo ^VESC]13 to the console, and I can see the response string come back. Does anyone know why the read is hanging, and what needs to be done to correct this issue? I like the idea of this app to change my screen based upon the system I login to (So that I can easily see when I'm logged into a production machine, or a QA machine). Thanks.
