X Window takes mouse input, but not keyboard
I am using cygwin/X and Putty to connect to various UNIX servers and am having a problem with keyboard input in certain X apps. I connect to an AIX server with Putty using ssh and I have cygwin's X server running in multiwindow mode. When I set my display and execute a command to start an XWindow on the AIX machine the window loads perfectly and the mouse works. However, when I try to enter text from the keyboard, nothing happens. The application I am trying to use is Legato backup software, specifically the nwadmin GUI interface. Is there some setting I am missing? I don't understand why it would take mouse input, but not keyboard. BTW - Thank you for a great product! I use cygwin/X on both my computers at work and to access my Linux box from my Windows box via XDMCP at home. I can't say enough good things about how well this works. One of my computers at work has Hummingbird's Exceed on it, but I still use cygwin/X because I think it works better.

Starting XWin on a second monitor
I am using Cygwin/X on a Windows XP Professional machine with two monitors. Is there any way to get XWin to start full screen on the second monitor only? I currently set the screen size to the resolution of the second monitor and move the window once it opens. It would be nice to have the X session open full screen, but only use the second monitor. Thanks for any help! David Wright EDS - Northeast Ohio Solution Centre MS WHQ3 4944 Belmont Avenue Youngstown, OH 44505-1018 USA
Error starting Xclock and Xterm
I recently installed all of the new XFree86 packages to a working cygwin installation. Now when I start the X-server, the server starts but I can't start Xclock or Xterm. I get the following message: This application has failed to start because cygXft-2.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. I don't know what package this dll is in so that I can re-download and re-install. Can you help? Thank You, David Wright
Xterm on HP-UX
Hello, I am using cygwin with xfree68 to connect from my Windows XP machine to a HP-UX 11.11 machine. I am doing a rlogin from an xterm window. Whenever I type in a '@' while logged into the HP machine, I also get a new line. This is preventing me from using such things as sqlplus. Is there a fix for this problem? David Wright
