Hello Harold, Hello all.
Just to give some more (late) feedback (hope it helps a bit):
I intend to make XFree86-xserv-4.2.0-15 the stable release as soon as I
receive some feedback that it does not introduce any substantial bugs.
I have been using the rootless mode since it was first "release

Hi!
The "rootless" mode is much more interesting than the "real" one from
other products (at least for me). One of the reasons for this is cygwins
capability of still being able to use an X11 window manager (e.g. icewm)
instead of the dump windows user interface (oh how I miss the "focus

Hi Harold.
That is funny - although my machines both start, these are the log
entries from my NT4 (SP6) and my Win98 machine. The NT one uses
ShadowDD, the Win98 machine uses ShadowDDNL!
Both machines use the "standard" startx script. The only thing I changed
is -fullscreen.
Logs follow.

Hello!
I am sorry to (maybe) destroy your enthusiasm but from my point of view
there are some more reasons for not running either gnome or kde on cygwin:
The main thing is: they are very large packages and even on my linux box
they are that slow, that I prefer just using icewm as window manag
Hi.
I am not absolutely sure, but isn´t it ssh -l user@host ???

Hi.
To me the problems seems to be:
> Xlib: connection to "10.0.0.4:0.0" refused by server
The Xserver with XFree86 does not allow connections from external
programs - this is exactly the message I get when I forget to set xhost.
For testing you could try to type "xhost + " on your windows m
Hello.
This might be a bit off this topic, but just one question:
I am currently using xmodmap for my german keyboard. As this is working
fine (I got the map from my linux box), I would like to know if there is
any SPEED issue when using xmodmap instead of XKB?

Uwe
Hello.
I had a lot of problems with keyboard layouts as well with the older
version of X on cygnu. Since them I am still using the following lines
in my local .xinitrc:
sysmodmap=/etc/german.key
if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi
This is a workaround but it works. The Key
Hello.
Thanks for all the good hints. I am trying to comment them all at once:
First of all: The comparison was running Xfree, icewm, nedit and an own
application completely under cygwin on the same machine - not outgoing
connections. That is exactly my problem: I want to avoid using two

Hello.
I have one question about speed issues concerning different "Host"
operating systems of the cygwin environment.
Here at work I am using cygwin with the latest X11 binaries on an 800
MHz PIII and an Nvideo Vanta Graphics adaptor. X11 is quite usable with
this setup although the speed l
