Hi!
I tried cygwin1-20060614.dll and the problem is gone !
At least I can't reproduce it.
Just in case, here are steps to repriduce it (with older cywwin1.dll) :
1.)
- connect to remote Windows system using Remote Desktop
- there start the cygwin bash shell (using the start menu entry)
- in bash start startxwin.bat
- close the new xterm by typing ctrl-D in it
- right click the X icon in systray and select "Exit"
- CPU goes to 50% (one entire CPU, my system has two of them)
or
2.)
- connect to remote Windows system using Remote Desktop
- there start the cygwin bash shell (using the start menu entry)
- in bash type "xwin :0 -query some.unix.system.com -clipboard
-scrollbars"
- close Remote Desktop (the session keeps running "in background")
- start remote Desktop, reduce it's windows size (Options / Display /
Remore Desktop Size), let's say from original 1024x768 to 800x600
- reconnect to the same sessione on the remote system
- result : X windows dead, consuming all CPU (50% on a 2-way SMP)
As I said , the new snapshot DLL fixes both scenarios.
Thanks for your assistance !
Regards,
David
