Do the setitimer fixes need to go into 21.4? Aren't they only needed if BROKEN_SIGIO is set, which is only done in 21.5? I'm still seeing random lockups with these changes. When I tried running XEmacs, here is what happened, Attempt #1: hung without opening initial window #2: hung before displaying splash screen #3: ran for 20mins(?) before hanging #4: under gdb - opened initial window and then I started getting error messages in the console window and the XEmacs was hung. The console output is at the end of this message. The errors appeared one every minute or so.

Re: [PATCH] fix compile errors, C-g problems, etc. 23 years, 5 months

Paul Stodghill

> NOTE: This patch has been committed. I've checked out the changes and recompiled. (while t) - C-g works - C-Sh-g works (let ((inhibit-quit t)) (while t)) - C-g doesn't works - C-Sh-g works as expected. Excellent! Two additional things: First, I've started noticing the dreaded "random lockups" since the change to set BROKEN_SIGIO. I will let you know if I continue to observe them with the most recent set of changes. Second, I had to make a few changes to get event-msw.c to compile under cygwin. I will post these to xemacs-patches separately.

buffer tab refresh problem 23 years, 5 months

Marco Walther

It looks like there is still a problem with the buffer tab. Sometimes it does not repaint all it would need to. Please see the included screenshot. (Debug on error is enabled but it did not see anything wrong!) Please let me know if I can help debug this in any way! Thanks, -- Marco

vm/png/mime/windows/xemacs type problem 23 years, 5 months

Jeff Mincy

On windows xemacs (21.1.13) running on cygwin, when I get a email picture (like png) I get 'Unknown/Bad PNG image encoding' when I try to view the picture in VM. If I save the attachment to a file I can view the picture, so the attachment was ok. I tracked the error message down to vm-mime-display-internal-image-xemacs-xxxx The function created a png glyph with the contents of the picture stored in c:/windows/TEMP/vm1. When I tried to view c:/windows/TEMP/vm1, I get an image-conversion error shown below. So, I'm a little lost as to what to try now. -jeff ---- 1 -> vm-mime-display-internal-image-xemacs-xxxx: layout=[("image/png") ("image/png") "base64" nil "XEmacs screen shot" ("inline" "filename=xemacs2.png") ("inline" "filename=\"xemacs2.png\"") #<marker at 2152624 in INBOX 0x236067c> #<marker at 2152775 in INBOX 0x2360664> #<marker at 2152776 in INBOX 0x236055c> #<marker at 2170916 in INBOX 0x2360544> nil ((vm-mime-display-internal-image-xxxx . #<glyph (buffer) #<image-specifier global=(((mswindows win) .

RE: XEmacs from CVS is randomly crashing and locking up 23 years, 5 months

Paul Krause

> From: Ben Wing [mailto:ben＠666.com] > ok, i know how to fix this first problem. > have you tried my suggestion of using the nt.c setitimer{}? Um ... no. In fact, I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. Let's see. It looks like you made that suggestion to Paul Stodghill , who was building for cygwin. I'm doing a native build using VC5.0 (my fault, I should have clarified that in the beginning: Stodghill saw it first on cygwin; Krause confirmed it on windows native), so I am already using the version from nt.c. At least I think I am. M-x describe-installation OS version: Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195] OS: Windows_NT XEmacs 21.5-b1 \"anise\" configured for `i586-pc-win32'.

>>>>> "arasu" == arasu kannapiran <arasu> writes: Hello Arasu, I've forwarded your problem to the XEmacs development list (xemacs-beta). First off I'd suggest to build a newer version of XEmacs if you try to build it yourself. I suspect the error below is not the first one you get. You may also want to have a look at config.log for any configuration problems. The latest stable version is XEmacs 21.1.14.

Gnus fix: nnmail.el: nnmail-fix-eudora-headers regexp 23 years, 5 months

Mark Thomas

I'm not sure what the policy is for fixing bugs in "external" packages. I submitted the following to bugs(a)gnus.org. Should I submit the following to xemacs-patches as well so you can fix xemacs-packages/lisp/gnus/nnmail.el until the upstream Gnus is fixed? The problem is that the fifth argument to replace-match means something very different in Emacs than in XEmacs. (replace-match NEWTEXT &optional FIXEDCASE LITERAL STRING SUBEXP) The optional fifth argument SUBEXP specifies a subexpression of the match. It says to replace just that subexpression instead of the whole match. This is useful only after a regular expression search or match since only regular expressions have distinguished subexpressions. Thanks, -Mark To: bugs(a)gnus.org (The Gnus Bugfixing Girls + Boys) Subject: nnmail-fix-eudora-headers regexp From: Mark Thomas <mthomas(a)edrc.cmu.edu> Message-ID: <wf1hextmraf.fsf(a)svelte.home> Date: 06 Jun 2001 14:00:19 -0400 Lines: 183 User-Agent: Gnus/5.0808 (Gnus v5.8.8) XEmacs/21.1 (Cuyahoga Valley) Gnus v5.8.8 XEmacs 21.1 (patch 14) "Cuyahoga Valley" [Lucid] (i686-pc-linux, Mule) of Sun Apr 8 2001 on svelte.home 200 vagu.edrc.cmu.edu NNTP[auth] server version 0.9n(dnntp) ready at Wed Jun 6 12:28:17 2001 (canpost) I realize my Gnus is not the bleeding edge, so this may have been fixed in the oort series.
