Re: Xserver and VNC
Hi Jim, What *has* seemed to improve things is to install the experimental X server (1.9) as well as latest XWin.exe from: ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwinx/XWin.20100923-git-2172af4d1ea713f1.exe.bz2 and the latest cygwin1.dll from: http://www.cygwin.com/snapshots/ I am using the following cygwin: 1.7.7(0.230/5/3) 2010-08-31, which is quite the latest. Similarly, the Xserver is Release: 1.8.2.0 (10802000) Build Date: 2010-08-06. I am a little hesitant to try out the experimental version or to risk my cygwin installation. 1) Are these versions not suitable? 2) Is there an alternative?

I am a little hesitant to try out the experimental version or to risk my cygwin installation. xorg-server 1.9.0-2 is no longer experimental. As for stability, almost everything I run on a daily basis is X-based; Jon would know if it wasn't stable. :-) Yaakov Cygwin/X -- 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/

You could also try an X11 VNC client. Cygwin Ports provides TigerVNC, Vinagre (GNOME), and KRDC (KDE).

Xserver and VNC
Hi, I use a Cygwin Xserver on Windows for Xterms. Now I have to access a remote desktop using VNC. I find that if I open both, they conflict. For example, if you do a copy/paste operation, both of them hang. Is there any information on this? I need to use both of them at the same time.
