Harold:

So far 4.3.0-40 seems to work OK.

I trust this will help more people :>).

Thanks.

Lester,

Thanks for testing. You confirmed my suspicions. Please try the
XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-40 release when it reaches your favorite mirror. The
-40 release was made just for you ;)

I dropped the options using multiwindow, one at a time:
The first two still do not work:
   XWin -unixkill -clipboard -multiwindow &
   XWin -emulate3buttons -clipboard -multiwindow &


This works:
   XWin -unixkill -emulate3buttons -multiwindow &
but I cannot even cut and paste between an X-window and a browser,
though I can cut and paste among the X-windows.

It seems that -clipboard and -multiwindow do not work together.

Great, thanks for testing.  Also, thanks for sending in the bug report 
when you ran into trouble.  I don't like shipping software with obvious 
bugs, so it is good to have your problem fixed now.

Lester,

Please try removing, and testing each iteration, the -clipboard and -multiwindow 
parameters. So, please test 'XWin -unixkill -emulate3buttons -multiwindow', 
'XWin -unixkill -emulate3buttons -clipboard', and 'XWin -unixkill 
-emulate3buttons'. Please report your results. I have a suspicion about what is 
causing your problem and this testing information will help me to fix the 
problem.

Harold

I can't start the latest XWIN.exe.  I get an OS error from XP/Pro that
XWIN.exe can't be started.  I have all the latest-current cygwin files
as well XP Pro patches, etc.

Here is the error directed to a logfile:

    ------------8<------------ top cut -> bottom ------------->8------------
XIO:  fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server "localhost:0.0"
      after 9 requests (8 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

    ------------8<------------ bottom cut <- top ------------->8------------
      after 8 requests (7 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

I tried this 3 ways in my startxwinMW.sh file, where I uncommented both
export lines, and just one at a time, without any effect

    ------------8<------------ top cut -> bottom ------------->8------------
#! /bin/sh
#export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0

xterm -sb -bg white -fg darkblue -cr red -ms red -bd red -geometry 80x84-0+0 -name right &

exit
