From: Gulliver Smith <gulliver.m.smith@gmail.com> To: cygwin-xfree <cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com> Subject: Issues since last update of cygwin - clipboard, crashing Date: Wed, 08 Oct 2014 15:31:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <CAK2rWZUX_8oN0wVHheGQ4VfFWg2BtmcdRY14SFSheDUrKEC_bA@mail.gmail.com> (raw) Windows 7 Professional, I updated cygwin on the weekend of Oct 4 and am now having issues with cygwin X, mostly with the clipboard. I am running with no root window (XWin.exe) I have two different systems (home and work), one running cygwin 64 bit and the other cygwin 32 bit. Both have these issues. 1) frequent clipboard timeouts when querying the x-selection for something in the Windows clipboard 2) After an hour or two, the X-selection no longer appears in the windows clipboard, so I have to restart everything 3) cygwin X freezes - all windows are light grey and not responding 4) cygwin x has crashed a few times. These are all new symptoms since Oct 4. I have been using this set up for years with few problems. Is this a known problem that is being fixed?
