Subject: High CPU usage with Cygwin-x11 under xp-x64
Hello,
I have an issue with XP-64 where it consistently
completely uses up one
of my core's CPU resources after a period of time. This
varies from 1-12
hours from what I've seen, but it always occurs when I close
all xterm
windows, and the server is still running the in background. I
can't kill
the X11 server via the right click tray menu, but instead
have to kill
it via task manager.
More information:
System has the following specs:
-Windows XP (x64) fully patched
-Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 CPU
-ATI Radeon x1650 Pro with latest drivers
-4GB RAM
Cygwin and xorg-x11 are fully up to date as of today, and I
tried using
both -multiwindow and -rootless with usr\X11R6\bin\startxwin.bat, but
Cygwin-X11 showed the same behavior, and nearly froze my system.
I wish I could attach a log of some kind, but apparently this
version of
X11 isn't setup to log to /var/log/Xorg.0.log automatically.
Any help is much appreciated as I greatly prefer xterms over Cygwin
running in dinky, lame DOS CMD windows.
Hi this is but a guess. Are you possibly running some firewall other
then windows standard? If so try unisnstalling it. Reboot and test. I
had a similar problem on one computer and traced it down to
Sunbelt/Kerio personal firewall.
Good Luck
