Thanks for the detailed bug report. > FWIW, I've searched the mailing lists and found this: > > [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xorg-server-1.12.0-2 > * The _NET_WM_STATE_SKIP_TASKBAR hint is now > implemented in multiwindow mode > > Since I'm using multi-window mode and since these are > network based xterms coming into XWin.exe, and the taskbar > button is not automatically showing with the xterm window, > could this be my problem? Indeed, it seems that this change introduced a timing window where the skip-taskbar state of a window might not be applied correctly when the window was first shown, and I guess remote xterms fall into this window. I've uploaded 1.12.2-1 which hopefully contains a fix which closes this timing window. When it reaches the mirrors, perhaps you could try it and see if it fixes things for you? -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
