Thanks Jon for the quick reply. I attached a new log file generated with
an attempt to highlight - followed by the "hang".
Can you please attach an X server log generated with the additional server
option '-logverbose 3'
Can you be more detailed about what you mean by a 'hang'? Does just the X
server application become unresponsive? or your whole system?
Again, this worked PERFECTLY just yesterday.
I understood the first time.
I would suggest that something has changed on your system to cause this change
in behaviour, but you are best placed to find out what that is.

I've been using Cygwin X trouble-free for years, and am running the latest
distribution of X and the Cygwin1.dll for at least two weeks (since the
Cygwin 1.7.7.1 release). It's been fine until this morning when it started
locking on me whenever I used the mouse to highlight text. I have NO IDEA
what changed on my system to now cause this behavior. **ANY** help you can
give to assist me would be most appreciated since I use it for all my
development efforts.
This is very likely to be some sort of problem with the clipboard integration
code.
You might find that using the '-noclipboard' option works around the problem
(at the cost of not being able to cut/paste between Windows and X apps).
An xserver log with '-logverbose 3' might shed a bit more light on what's
going on.
