From: valtul AT demos DOT su (Valery Tulnikov) Subject: Xvnc for cygwin32 3 Apr 1998 00:07:44 -0800 Message-ID: <000601bd5e59$28a00d40$991157c2.cygnus.gnu-win32@valtul.dialup.ru> Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="koi8-r" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: I successfully compiled Xvnc to Cygwin32. You could find it and other Cygwin32 ports at my web page http://www.dol.ru/users/valtul. The small annotation from this page: ------------------------------------------------ I uploaded binaries of Xvnc server and vncviewer with modified sources. Its based on the patch provided Sergey Okhapkin for Cygwin32b19 distribution of X11R6.3 and the FreeBSD patch for VNC (mostly, includes changes for understanding *.gz fonts). I couldn't provide a *.diff because these binaries produced by semi-hacked methods (I provide Makefiles that compiled everything at Xvnc subdirectory but if someone try to reproduced its with 'make Makefiles' he could experienced some cycling). Xvnc scripts use perl port for Cygwin32 so you need install it.Besides it, you should install *.gz fonts and rebuild its doing 'mkfontdir" at each font directory. Another way (that I prefer) is to use a font server (read VNC FAQ for available commands). By this time I haven't checked Cygwin-build font server for working with Xvnc (and haven't checked how Xvnc deals with local fonts too). But, I guess xfs needs the same patch as Xvnc for supporting *.gz fonts. This work is not done yet. ---------------------------------------------------- With best regards, Valery Tulnikov, valtul AT demos DOT su - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
