Well, looking at the rate of progress on fd.o bug #5735, it seems reasonable to hope that it will be fixed in a year or two :-) I've applied the patch I've suggested there to today's snapshot, uploaded a= at [1]. Perhaps you could try that out and see if that improves things for you? [1] ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwinx/XWin.20120218-git-c3b936a38812f88b.exe.bz2 ----------------------------- Jon, I downloaded, bunzip2, and installed the new version of Xwin. I restarted Xwin using the new version. I ran some preliminary cut and paste tests, and it seems to work correctly... i.e. I can perform multiple "cut from Xwin & Paste to WinXP", without intervening "cut from WinXP & Paste to Xwin" without error. I will continue running the new version while I perform my daily work, and will advise you if I have a recurrence of the problem. Thanks a lot for this temporary fix. -tony -- 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/ -- 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/
