AW: AW: 1.9.2.0: Xwin SIGSEGV when font server should be queried


I managed to work around it.

In the startup of XWin I start a few windows.
In one of them I add the font server after a bit of sleep to settle down
XWin.
Now the XWin does not SIGSEGV any more why so ever.

Here are the scripts I use to start up my X environment

Burkhard

Startxwin.bat:
@echo off
SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0


REM 
REM The path in the CYGWIN_ROOT environment variable assignment assume
REM that Cygwin is installed in a directory called 'cygwin' in the root
REM directory of the current drive.  You will only need to modify
REM CYGWIN_ROOT if you have installed Cygwin in another directory.  For
REM example, if you installed Cygwin in \foo\bar\baz\cygwin, you will
need 
REM to change \cygwin to \foo\bar\baz\cygwin.
REM 
REM This batch file will almost always be run from the same drive (and
REM directory) as the drive that contains Cygwin/X, therefore you will
REM not need to add a drive letter to CYGWIN_ROOT.  For example, you do
REM not need to change \cygwin to c:\cygwin if you are running this
REM batch file from the C drive.
REM 

SET CYGWIN_ROOT=\cygwin
SET RUN=%CYGWIN_ROOT%\bin\run -p /usr/bin

SET PATH=.;%CYGWIN_ROOT%\bin;%PATH%

SET XAPPLRESDIR=
SET XCMSDB=
SET XKEYSYMDB=
SET XNLSPATH=

REM Shared Memory support
SET CYGWIN=server

REM
REM Cleanup after last run.
REM

if not exist %CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp\.X11-unix\X0 goto CLEANUP-FINISH
attrib -s %CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp\.X11-unix\X0
del %CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp\.X11-unix\X0

:CLEANUP-FINISH
if exist %CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp\.X11-unix rmdir %CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp\.X11-unix


REM
REM The error "Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed'"
is
REM caused by using a DOS mode mount for the mount that the Cygwin/X
REM fonts are accessed through.  See the Cygwin/X FAQ for more 
REM information:
REM http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof
REM

REM WARNING: Do not use 'xwinclip' in conjunction with the
``-clipboard''
REM command-line parameter for XWin.  Doing so would start two clipboard
REM managers, which is never supposed to happen.
