I don't suppose anyone has any thoughts on this?
It's rendered Cygwin X11 unusable. :-(
Can any further diagnostics be enabled?

I have two machines, a desktop and a laptop.
Both are 64bit Windows 7 Enterprise installations.
I (think I) configured Cygwin on both the same and they have the same
identical ~/.XWinrc file.
They both use the same mirror for installing and are both fully up to date.
A précis of my .XWinrc looks like this:
menu root {
// Comments fit here, too...
"Xterm" exec "xterm"
"Xterm - Vulpix" exec "ssh vulpix xterm -e bash --login"
}
And on the desktop both work and on the laptop only the local xterm will run.
Nothing appers in /var/log/<anything>
So I added an entry like this:
"Experiment" exec ~/experiment
and ~/experiment looks like this
#!/bin/bash
(
set -x
ssh -v vulpix xterm
)> /tmp/experiment 2>&1
It still fails (i.e. does nothing) and /tmp/experiment has
So can anyone tell me why I get the select / waitForMultipleObjects error?
If I'm in the xterm I *can* run, I have zero problems running
$ ssh vulpix xterm -e bash --login
Hello Craig,
you have to use X11 Forwarding. Try
menu root {
// Comments fit here, too...
"Xterm" exec "xterm"
"Xterm - Vulpix" exec "ssh -Y vulpix xterm -e bash --login"
}
or
menu root {
// Comments fit here, too...
"Xterm" exec "xterm"
"Xterm - Vulpix" exec "ssh -X vulpix xterm -e bash --login"
}
