Some more info on this crash(I assume I'm running into the same problem):
What is "crashing"? XWin.exe? Does your entire X11 session bomb? Or, is just Evolution crashing? If Evolution is crashing, then it is likely due to bugs in Evolution; granted, some of these bugs may be brought out by XWin.exe, but they would still be bugs nonetheless.
- I can use the Evolution interface after the "Do you want to debug" requester has popped up. I interpret this as some "non-essential thread" having been stopped while the rest of XWin threads continue "unperturbed"
That message is coming from Evolution, not from XWin.exe. If one of XWin.exe's thread's crashed, that thread would just exit silently (usually with a message saying so in XWin.log).
- It does seem to happen before or after I'm selecting messages in my inbox.
Okay.
- Copy & paste works after the crash(from Evolution to Windows)
So, XWin.exe is not crashing, nor is the clipboard client thread (if it was, you would not be able to copy and paste between X11 and Win32 at all).
- The frequency of the problem is ~/2-3 hours.
Okay.
- After XWin.exe had put up the requester for the access violation, I opened up a new Evolution email window, but I couldn't change focus from the main Evolution
window to the new Evolution mail window.
Are you sure XWin.exe did this? This sounds like it is happening in Evolution. You are running Evolution on a separate Linux/*nix box, right? You haven't done something silly like compiled it for Cygwin, have you?
XWin.log for session attached.
Not much useful in there... the message at the end of the log is not a failure, just a warning.
