- Subject: cygwin 1.7.0-63 problems with X programs
Like another user, I had difficulty getting X to fire up.
After setting LANG=en_US.UTF-8 I got farther, but these issues
remain:
Each xterm, xemacs, and xclock I start outputs this:
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
I also get a series of:
twm: warning: font for charset XXX is lacking.
Where XXX is replaced by each of these in turn:
JISX0208.1983-0
KSC5601.1987-0
GB2312.1980-0
Those three lines repeat 6 times.
Also:
1) the whole deal takes noticeably longer to start
2) xemacs does not receive its normal geometry from .Xdefaults
3) each xterm started from .xinitrc has a blank line
before the initial bash prompt, that wasn't present before
For the moment it looks wiser for me to revert to 62. I was
trying to get past an rsync problem, that I may report in
another email if I can't resolve it ...
Thanks -- Eliot Moss
