Not sure it will convince anybody, just my point of view.
I'm using Cygwin/XFree to connect to some HP-UX and AIX boxes, and I 
can't use xkb because of this CDE/AltGr/whatever problem. (If I use xkb, 
I don't have access to |, @, etc...)
So I launch X via "X -kb" and then load my own .xmodmap.
This was working perfectly, but without Win32 autorepeat nor xkb 
autorepeat, I have no autorepeat at all :-(
My suggestion: is it possible to enable Win32 autorepeat only if X 
is launched with the -kb switch ?

Thanks for the very good job you all do,
Gael.

It would be consistent with other behavior to get autorepeat settings 
from Windows, not from X settings. For example, we try to use the 
Windows language settings, right?

Since Xwin is a Windows application, there's little reason for it to 
have its own autorepeat configuration.

There were two changes recently. The first switched off the win32 
autorepeat, the second added support for a AutoRepeat option in the 
configfile. 

The second may have changed default values (but I am quite sure that I've
used exactly the values which were default before). But I think you missed 
the first change which changed the old behaviour.

If this is the case I can add code to use the windows default autorepeat 
settings to configure Xwin. But this will again change the old behavior
of Xwin and some users might be unhappy with it.

[Zbynek Winkler]

I am not sure I know how the system worked internaly and I would 
cetrainly make no requests in that matter. I was just trying to point 
out the user point of view. You are (probably) saying that you have 
improved the software internaly (which is always good). However this 
improvement changed the original default behavior in such a way that in 
order to get it back I am going to have to browse the net for some 
XF86Config-4 file only to set it to same value I was perfectly happy 
with before I did the upgrade. Isn't it weird? And I know this will fix 
the problem only because I happend to subscribe a week ago to this list. 
Before that I didn't even know there was such an option. Could you make 
us all happy and use the win32 default unless told otherwise instead of 
pulling one out of thin air? Does it sound reasonable? We are talking 
here only about two numbers. I don't mean to be pain in the ... but I 
really think it is more logical to do it this way. Would it break anything?

We were previously using two auto-repeat schemes at the same time:

1) xkb

2) Win32's auto repeat layer

Convince me why it is good to have two layers handling auto repeat by 
default and I will accede to your request.

Could the default be (when no config file is found) the autorepeat that 
was before the change? Thus this upgrade would hit only the users who 
really want to customise it.

and this works fine.

Hi all,

and thanks for the ideas.

Actually, I previously had problems with extraneous newlines from keyboard and somebody suggested 'xset r off', which was still there in my startup script. It didn't bother me with 4.3.0-21 but disabled the repeat with 4.3.0-22. Now I just removed xset from my startup, and repeat works OK.

Well, I still sometimes get extraneous newlines also with 4.3.0-22, but fortunately not so much.

Cheers,
Tuli

The command 'xset r on' should enable auto-repeat on the
X Window layer.  xset can set auto-repeat parameters in
detail (please see 'man xset').

Of course it is better to check -kb option or
XF86Config-4 file for more sophisticated configuration.

No, but I found the culprit. I once downloaded a XF86Config-4 file from the

There was an entry

I had the same problem, then I discovered that in the custom script I 
used to start XFree, I had this parameter:

	-kb

passed to XWin.exe (i.e. I had something like:

	XWin :0 -nowinkill -unixkill -kb -screen 0 1280 1024
)

Removing the "-kb" parameter (i.e. changing to something like:

	XWin :0 -nowinkill -unixkill -screen 0 1280 1024
)

Solved the problem.

Updated: XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-22

[Harold L Hunt II]

Announcement
============

The XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-22 package has been updated in the Cygwin
distribution.


Links
=====

Server source, direct link:
http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/xwin/server/xwin-20031109-1622.tar.bz2 (130
KiB)

xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xwin (all files) diff against 4.3.0-20 source code:
http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/xwin/server/xwin-4.3.0-20-to-4.3.0-22.diff
(17 KiB)


Changes
=======

1) win.h, winkeybd.c, winmultiwindowwndproc.c, winwndproc.c - Remove
winStoreModeKeyStates () function and stop storing mode key state
within the hw/xwin layer.  Instead, query the internal X Server mode
key state, when we know that no key press/release events are pending,
and send key press/release events to get that state in sync with the
Windows mode key states.  This removes the possibility that the
hw/xwin and internal X Server mode key state vectors would get out of
sync.  This is also a general cleanup that utilizes more existing code
and removes some Cygwin-specific code.  (Takuma Murakami)

2) winwndproc.c - Catch WM_ENDSESSION message and perform clean
shutdown.  (Takuma Murakami)

3) winwndproc.c - WM_*KEYDOWN - Discard key presses generated from
Windows auto-repeat (these sorts of auto-repeats are handled by X).
(Takuma Murakami)

4) winmouse.c - Remap mouse buttons here when XFree86Server and
XINPUT are defined, since this combination of flags prevents a lower
layer from performing such remapping.  The end result is that
remapping mouse buttons works for the first time.  (Takuma
Murakami)

5) winconfig.c - Load the US keyboard layout for Japanese keyboards.
This ensures that WM_KEYUP messages are sent for the Caps Lock
key.  (Takuma Murakami, Kensuke Matsuzaki)

6) win.h, winengine.c, winmultiwindowwindow.c, winmultiwindowwm.c,
winpfbdd.c, winshaddd.c, winshadddnl.c, winshadgdi.c, winwindow.h -
Add an engine-specific function that is called after a Windows-window
is created in -multiwindow mode.  This is a start for adding
DirectDraw support to -multiwindow mode.  However, I got a little
confused here and thought that one primary surface would need to be
created per window, which is not correct.  There will be one primary
surface with a clip list that causes blits to stay within the region
of all of our visible windows.  In any case, this is a step in the
right direction.  There code is currently disabled since the engine
setting code only allows the GDI engine when -multiwindow is being
used.  (Harold L Hunt II)
