Fwd: xterm (not rxvt) cut and paste through xinit (not Xwin)
Hi, I have recently reinstalled the cygwin X on my xp box, now I have a problem of cut and paste from xterm to windows. The way I start X is via "startx", but I was not able to enable clipboard in this case. How do I do that?

That's no longer default, either.

(some) xterm disappearing when typing
Hi, I ran cygwin X at work and everything works fine except one thing: we have some special command that launches an xterm to a production window via ssh/X11 tunneling. This window will disappear on me when I attempt to type into it. All my regular xterm works perfectly fine, and I don't see any logs or anything on the X server side. This used to work with my previous installation of cygwin X. Does anybody have an idea what's going on here? or even how do I diagnose this problem, since the window will disappear no matter what I type. thanks. -- 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/

Re: (some) xterm disappearing when typing
I don't have any of those variables set in my shell, does it make it more challenging? :-) plus, if I do have some of those set, shouldn't all xterm fail??

You are misreading the entry. Just follow its first line: [SNIP] Launch the X server via the shortcut under "Cygwin-X" on the start menu. [/SNIP] Does that work?

No, it doesn't work that would be too easy...
