lesstif mwm bug

2002-05-06 Thread Hans Werner Strube
The mwm from lesstif eats up 99 % of CPU time, both in the binary package and in a self-compiled version. I found that the select() calls in events.c do not wait but immediately fail with errno = EBADF, although fd_width is 256 and x_fd is 3 or 4 (printed out in mwm.c). I have not yet found the

Mike, Take a look at /tmp/XWin.log for errors. Send in the relevant errors if you find any (probably just the bottom few lines of the file). Do you have more than one network card or a token-ring network card? Harold -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL

Scott, startxwin.exe -query server name I don't understand, there is no startxwin.exe file distributed with Cygwin/XFree86. You must be talking about startxwin.bat or startxwin.sh, but neither of those can be passed parameters. What are you talking about Failed assertion, fds_on_hold

The definition of key_t in newlib is a 32bit int, for cygdaemon it needs to be 64 bit to store the inode and the index cleanly. Redefining that will break every cygipc linked application when they are rebuilt, until cygipc is rebuilt against the new source. However rebuilding cygipc will
