The issues I notice so far:

shows no adaptors available.)
From a very quick look, you seem to have dropped the GetTimeInMillis()
part of the patch.
This is critical to pastes and grabs working.
Ok, I've done some testing and omitting this does indeed cause the
right-click and clipboard problems you describe.
Attached is a svn diff against the cygwin-ports svn, which patches os/utils.c
so GetTimeInMillis() uses GetTickCount() for a monotonic clock under cygwin.
This throws up a strange linkage problem: XWin.exe links fine, but all the
other .exes produced (e.g. Xvfb.exe, Xnest.exe) fail to link with the
GetTickCount reference in libos.a unresolved. XWin.exe is presumably
different because it has references to GetTickCount in the .o files linked
to make the final executable. I don't understand the intricacies of cygwin
linking to guess why the linker can't resolve this symbol from kernel32 in
this case. I've worked around this by adding a -Wl,[EMAIL PROTECTED]
to the link line which seems to work to force it to be resolved, but I've no
idea if this is the correct solution.
I agree that enabling XVideo doesn't make much sense or do anything useful,
I had it off in my .cygport, so this patch also changes the .cygport to add
--disable-xv to the configuration.
(Clients built with existing libraries use this to timestamp events,
without this change the
server is built using epoch time, so all client events seem to come from
the impossibly
distant future and are ignored)
It's probably neater to just patch this in os/utils.c
I'll take a look an XVideo later...
