But it seems I had failed to add the patch that xming has to ensure that these temporary files are cleaned up correctly. I'll fix this and update the X server, but in the meantime you should be able to remove these temporary files once the server has started with no ill effects :-) -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- 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/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
