Updated on sourceware: XFree86-xserv-4.2.0-40

[Harold L Hunt II]

The XFree86-xserv-4.2.0-40 package has been updated in the Cygwin
distribution.


Changes:

1) winmultiwindowwindow.c/winTopLevelWindowProc() - Rework the mouse
polling timer so that it is attached to the root-level window.  This
prevents multiple mouse polling timers from being created, which was
happening in the old versions.  Introduce a new way of determining
that the timer should be created or deleted, which will hopefully fix
some corner cases where the timer was not being created.  (Harold L
Hunt II)

2) XWin.rc - Remove a couple of window style flags that were not
compatible with Earle's patch for removing the minimize and maximize
buttons from the dialog boxes.  (Earle F. Philhower III)

3) XWin.rc - Make ``x'' and ``C'' hotkeys for the Exit Confirmation
dialog box.  (Colin Harrison, Biju G C)

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link
on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to
your system.  Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick
up 'XFree86-xserv' from the 'XFree86' category.  You may need to
click the "Full" button if it doesn't show up.

Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't
allowed due to bandwidth limitations.  This means that you will need
to find a mirror which has this update.

In the US, ftp://archive.progeny.com/cygwin/
is a reliable high bandwidth connection.

In Japan, ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/gnu/gnu-win32/ is usually
up-to-date.

In DK, http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date.

If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package
you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another
mirror.

this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.  This includes
ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin/XFree86 in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin/XFree86 mailing
list is the appropriate place.
