sending keys to cygwin (X)

2006-11-16 Thread Bjoern
Hello NG,

I use cygwin to connect via 'X -query IP' from my ordinary PC to a Linux
server. This works really fine. But on that server the vmwareplayer is running.
In this vmwareplayer i have to log on a virtual Windows maschine and therefor i
have to hit the CONTROL+OPTION+DELETE keys. But this will just open the task
manager of the local Windows-PC. Is there a possibilty to send a combination of
keys to the cygwin/X session?? And there is another question: is it possible to
connect via cygwin/X to an existing session so that I could close cygwin and
connect later again to this session? Thanks.

Why doesn't the standard VMWare alternative CTRL-ALT-INSERT work?
