It's not quite clear, but I think you are saying that it renders correctly when run locally on the Ubuntu 12.04 system? There are a couple of possible variables, which might affect things The version of the X server may not be the same. It would be useful to compare the same version, and also be helpful if you could test with the most recent X server (1.16.0) FWIW, the .svgs attached to that bug seem to render identically (although I'm not sure what correctly looks like) using a Cygwin Inkscape 0.48.4 r9939 (from cygwinports) and X server 1.16.0-1 It also does not happen if I run a native Windows version (not cygwin, not X11) of Inkscape on the same PC which hosts that X11 server on the same test files. The glitch does not occur with a huge number of other test files I have looked at over the years. It seems there is something specific to the clipping code in Inkscape and this particular X11 transport path/server combination. Moreover, it looks like the problem is only manifested (or only manifested frequently) when the clipping path consists of two (or more?) disjoint sections. When the glitches occur nothing is added to XWin.0.log. Also this X11 server is not running in the full cygwin environment, but rather in one edited down to just the minimum needed to run the X11 server. I distribute this version here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/minimalcygwinx/ I don't think this is a factor though, since all of the action is going on inside the X11 server process(es). -- 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/

If XWin aborted, the error message related to this will usually be near the end of the file, so it's best to work backwards through the file. You might be suffering from http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA If you have any of the software on the list, it's important to try uninstalling it. Just disabling it is unlikely to be enough to stop such badly written software from interfering. Finally, if you're still stuck, you need to follow the instructions here: Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html In particular, *attach* the output from running cygcheck -svr. For X related problems, you should also attach /tmp/XWin.log.
