Hi Jon,

x bit was set:

$ls -lg *.exe
-r-xr-xr-x+ 1  13762945 02.02.2012 19.38 
XWin.20120129-git-45e67e363e19a481.exe

What about the other interesting results?
Please note, that yesterday I sent 2 mails, the second mail continues paragraph 
counting from 6 to 9.

Regards,
  Paul

Possibly you need to 'chmod +x /bin/XWin.20120129-git-45e67e363e19a481.exe'

more tests:

6. I started ico with -sleep 1
   ico -sleep 1
   I constantly hold the trackpoint button down and scroll the xterm.
   -> I observe jump scrolling movements every second, one jump each second.
  xterm jump scrolls exactly at the time when ico refreshes

7. close ico, start xpdf
   -> xpdf and xterm both have broken = j

Hi Jon,

here a log of my recent tests. The most interesting point is the last.

1. I modified file C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\TP4table.dat according to 
new FAQ and reboot PC.
   -> No change of behaviour.

2. Download XWin.20120129-git-45e67e363e19a481.exe.bz2.
  /bin/startxwin -- /bin/XWin.20120129-git-45e67e363e19a481.exe -logverbose 3 
-clipboard -emulate3buttons 100 -nounixkill -nowinkill
-xkboptions nbsp:level3
   -> Doesn't start. Error message on the console is:

giving up.
/bin/startxwin:  No such file or directory (errno 2):  unable to connect to X 
server
/bin/startxwin:  No such process (errno 3):  Server error.

   -> No output at all to file /var/log/xwin/XWin.0.log.

3. I took above startxwin command line and replace 
XWin.20120129-git-45e67e363e19a481.exe by XWin.20110803-git-a493c0465e56ce0b.exe
   -> Immediately starts. All further tests with (old) 
XWin.20110803-git-a493c0465e56ce0b.exe.

4. Today I couldn't get to the broken, jumpy behaviour by scrolling a Windows 
dialog.
   So this is not the breaking condition as I previously meant.
   But after some time, the scrolling behaviour breaks and xterm scrolls in 
jumpy way.
   Sorry, I have no glue what's the condition that breaks it.
   After reboot of PC it scrolls fine. Any work of 1 minute or so seems to 
break smooth scrolling.

5. Then I started ico. 
   -> While ico runs, xterm scrolls fine and smooth. As soon as I stop ico, 
xterm scrolls jumpy.
   -> Pressing the trackpoint button has no effect to ico. It keeps painting 
fine eather way.

Regards,
  Paul
