Hi,
When XWin starts, I see the following error message in the XWin log file:

Hello.
I've got some problems with clipboard integration since XWin version 4.3.0-62
or 4.3.0-64 i think (not 100% sure, but it dates of late march of beginning of
april, and i usually update really regularly my installations).
I run kde-cygwin.3.1.4 but I don't know if this is relevant; Simply,

Double-clicking on the 'X' icon in the Windows system tray brings up a
dialogue box asking if you want to kill the X server, but I think it
should bring the X window to the foreground (if single-window mode).

Do I need XFree86 now that XOrg-x11 is the default X-windowing system?
When I do a fresh install, I see that a couple of packages in the removed
packages section are still selected.
These are XFree86-base and XFree86-bin. Are these really necessary is I
install xorg-x11-base and xorg-xll-bin?

Hello,
i just upgraded to the new X11 (X.org) version of cygwin/X (Release 6.7.0.0-1.
I use XWin to connect via XDMCP to several linux server. My previous used
startup script is a MS-DOS batch file in which i fire-up XWin.exe with start
XWin.exe
Yeah, you can't use run in the batch file... you have to use start
instead. I noticed this right before the release, but I don't have a
permanent solution yet. We had to switch from start to run because
start doesn't prevent a DOS box from being displayed and because we
switched XWin.exe

Hi,
Updated today to 6.7.0.0-1 using setup, resulting in a nearly
useless XWin:
1. XTerms do not respect sizing/minimize buttons (nothing
happens), nor toolbar tab (cannot minimize).
2. XTerm freezes easily (a right-mouse click seems to trigger
hang 100% of time). In this
Why don't you try some troubleshooting... try without -clipboard and
without -multiwindow and see what happens.

Thanks a lot. Will give it a try. Unfortunately there are some Win98 boxes

I don't know what setsid doesn't work with Win98, just that I don't have a
Win98 box to try it on. The setsid docs don't say anything about it not
working for Win98, though.

As cygwin provides a *nix-like environment, there IS a (shell) solution. Would
be the first problem which couldn't worked around :-)

Finally,
twm: another window manager is already running on screen 0?
twm: unable to find any unmanaged screens
If I use .xinitrc with exec twm, startx reports the above.
The same using another window manager. It works fine if I add
it to startxwin.sh. It used to work with XFree86.

Nice work, thanks.
Hi,
GLX acceleration works fine for me.
Tried on Matrox G550 and ATI Rage Pro on Windows XP.
glxgears shows a massive speed-up (gears graphic doesn't show on ATI?).
More testing underway.
Thanks
