Re: xwin produces flickery gray screen; cut/paste

I'm aware of that, but still it doesn't work. Does cutpaste from X11 to windows work? Some mouse drivers map the middle mouse button to special events and don't send the middle button pressed message. Please send the complete XWin.log output. bye ago NP: Bella Morte - Awake -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
