Cygwin specific: - fix copy & paste multibyte to unicode applications bug Differences to X11R6.8 Release ============================== - Added support for additional mouse buttons (Chris B) - Added support for si_LK (Sinhala,Sri Lanka) locale - Patched XKB definitions to match the different keycode for HK_toggle and backslash/underscore on jp106 keyboards and slash on ABNT2 Known Problems ============== - Composite is not working you can enable it with XWin +extension Composite but it will most likely crash. (You would not get accelerated transparency anyway) - enabled NumLock will cause problems with Motif applications - Installed ZoneAlarm 5 will cause the Xserver to hang. Even if ZA is disabled - /tmp mounted in textmode may cause the Xserver to hang bye ago -- Alexander Gottwald 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. Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "X11" and then click on the appropriate field until the above announced version number appears if it is not displayed already. If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after 24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or you can try to find another mirror. Please send questions or comments to the Cygwin/X mailing list at: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com If you want to subscribe go to: http://cygwin.com/lists.html I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin/X in general. If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin/X mailing list is the appropriate place. -- Alexander.Gottwald@s1999.tu-chemnitz.de http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
