Indeed, it seems that this change introduced a timing window where the skip-taskbar state of a window might not be applied correctly when the window was first shown, and I guess remote xterms fall into this window. I've uploaded 1.12.2-1 which hopefully contains a fix which closes this timing window. When it reaches the mirrors, perhaps you could try it and see if it fixes things for you? -- 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/
