New error display
Folks- I just updated my Cygwin/X, and the latest version has an undesirable new habit. When I run my batch files, I get my usual X desktop, but I also get a DOS box with the following contents: -- Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 6.7.0.0-3 Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] XWin was started with the following command line: XWin -clipboard OsVendorInit - Creating bogus screen 0 winValidateArgs - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1 winValidateArgs - Returning.

I have not changed my batch files, which worked fine with the previous version (say 3 weeks ago) of Cygwin/X. How can I eliminate this? -Shel -- Sheldon T.

Fw: Problem Using Cygwin To Open Remote CDE
I believe Bryan White has discovered a real bug in xfree86/cygwin. Here's his message and my response in comp.unix.solaris. I'm not on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list, so if you wish to reach me, go direct. Thanks. -Shel - Original Message - From: Sheldon T.

Further to the above ... using your -query command resulting in the following errors in the log: Wed Oct 23 21:03:12 2002 error (pid 20305): Hung in XOpenDisplay(208.178.101.40:0) attempt #0, aborting. Wed Oct 23 21:03:12 2002 error (pid 20305): Server open attempt #0 failed for 208.178.101.40:0, giving up Now, the interesting thing here is that the IP address 298.178.101.40 is not the IP address I used, no is it one on my network, or my ISP's network. It is, however, an address I know. Bring up xfree86 with a local xterm and command xhost; you'll see it. It seems to be built into xfree86 somehow, maybe left over from testing. It's the address of some law firm, according to whois I think you've found a real xfree86 bug. -Shel
