All,
I made the mistake of upgrading today and it has killed me.
I am trying to bring a xwindow up from a Solaris 9 server to my Windows XP
laptop running cygwin.
So a few things out of the way:
- Yes, I have read the FAQ. I am not setting XKeysymDB in any way and
various fixes proposed in this an other posting areas don't work. I have
followed everything in the FAQ to the letter to no avail.
- I blew away my entire installation and reinstalled from scratch, so there
are no stray startxwin.bat files around
- I tried starting from the Start menu -> Cygwin/X, from startxwin.bat, etc
- I patched the Solaris system I am touching but it didn't fix anything.
I can get an xterm to come up and it types just fine. But when I bring my
app up, typing kills the window resulting in a core dump on the Solaris
server.
There is nothing of note in any local logs (on my laptop). No errors, no
nothing.
I do get a core file on the Solaris system, but I can't tell if anything in
it tells me anything.
I understand that this is an ongoing problem, but is there anything I have
missed?
