problems with cygwin

[Tarun Sharma]

Hi
I have just installed cygwin on my Win XP system. But when I try to start
windowmaker then it justs says cant start x-server at 127.0.0.1:0.0 . I
tried few more things but couldnt succeed.
Ihe porblem I am thinking is related to some configuration. I also tried to
run XWin. which is running.And xterm can be connected to this.
Can anybody help me in this problem.
Some other question I want to ask is :
1. Can we have different users for cygwin. Because it just added one icon in
start menu by which I can just run cygwin's bash shell.

2. Some of the commands like more is not working on my system. I tried to
search it in /usr/bin but its not there.

Please update me about these problems
regards
-tarun

Re: [SPAM] problems with cygwin

[Hitanshu Gandhi]

Hi Tarun,

	I havent installed WMaker on CygWin, so wont comment on that. You 
should've attached a more descriptive log though.

1. Cygwin install asks you for install for 'All Users'/ only 
Administrator. That icon is typically in 
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu (or similar)

2. 'Some of the commands?' Only those packages which you selected have 
been installed. Install the needed ones. Here is a output from my term:
[ H -dash- G On yamuna ~] which more
/bin/more
[ H -dash- G On yamuna ~] rpm -qf /bin/more
util-linux-2.11r-10
util-linux-2.11y-9

These are the cygwin packages you'd need.

HTH

Huh?  Those are not Cygwin packages.  There is a 'more' package available
via 'setup' which provides '/bin/more' for Cygwin if the OP must have
'more' in addition to 'less' (which is installed by default).

Re: problems with cygwin

[Hitanshu Gandhi]

Hello,

	These are definitely not CygWin packages. But personally, I've 
been installing some packages by merely extracting the .tar.bz2 files at 
the right locations. I just download the :
http://ftp.iitm.ac.in/cygwin/release/more/more-2.11o-1.tar.bz2
and install. I mention this, because usually the linux rpms and Cygwin 
packages have similar names. I just gave it as an example to Tarun's query 
that some of the commands are not installed.

	I use mine to download a bunch of packages at the lab,and extract
them from CD at home. The setup.exe is the usual method!

I don't see how telling someone to run rpm is ever going to be useful
advice on cygwin until and unless cygwin starts using rpm in its
packaging.  So, sorry but you just confuse the issue by mentioning it.

Also, unless you really know what you're doing, you shouldn't be just
extracting the tar.bz2 files.  The files may contain postinstall
components which will not be executed if you just extract them.  Also,
you will end up confusing the rudimentary package database, making it
hard to receive accurate support if you ever need it here.

If you think you know what you're doing, that's fine.  I just don't
want this advice to be sitting in the archives without an accompanying
caveat.

This kind of question should really be directed to the Cygwin/X list,
assuming information from <http://x.cygwin.com/devel/documentation/>
doesn't help.

If you installed Cygwin as "All Users", then you can easily use the same
icon to start 'bash' as any user.  If you didn't install as "All Users",
you can rerun 'setup' and make this change.

See <http://cygwin.com/packages/>.  But I think you'll really find that
'less' is a better choice.

Are you using the startXWin.bat file?  Trying to run multiple window 
managers concurrently?
If memory serves the people in this list usually refer you to the 
cygwin-xfree mailing list. (per http://cygwin.com/lists.html)

per Larry Hall:

I expect you really want 'less' but either way, visit 
<http://cygwin.com/packages/> to determine the package you should install
to get the utility you want.  This works for all utilities. ;-)

problems with cygwin

[poseso soy yo]

Hello,

I have some problems when I try to compile flite archives. I have windows 
2000 like a operating system and cygwin-b20. When I put the instruction 
"./configure" I have this problem:

bash-2.02$ ./configure
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

And the archive configure exists. Why appears this error? Cygwin find in 
another directory?

Another question, where are cygwin-1.3.5 version? or another version of the 
cygwin-b20 :P

Thanks,

This is a standard windows problem.  I believe there is an entry in the FAQ or

Actually I thought that Ron Parker had solved this particular annoyance
by doing something in setup.exe.

Can you comment on this, Ron?  Am I misremembering?
