I'm running Win2k SP4. I have a problem with winclip exceptions. If I close down the X session when I have multiple remote terminals open, I almost always get an exception in xwinclip. It is still happening with Test92. I run XWin -multiwindow -clipboard. I get the same xwinclip error at home on win98, but I haven'y upgraded to this server test version yet.

I would like some feedback as to whether or not this release fixes any crashing with -multiwindow and -clipboard.

I just posted Test 92 to the server development page: http://xfree86.cygwin.com/devel/shadow/
You can install the Test 92 package via setup.exe by selecting the following version of the XFree86-xserv package: 4.2.0-43

Changes:
1) winconfig.c - Add new defaults for keyboardlayout: German (Switzerland) and English (USA, International). (Alexander Gottwald)
2) XWin.rc - Move Exit button to the bottom of the tray icon's menu. (List suggestion)
3) winmultiwindowclass.c - Add checks for NULL pointers. Should help fix some crashes in MultiWindow mode. (Ralf Habacker)
4) General - Add global variable that tracks whether XInitThreads () has been called so that it is only called once per process. Calling XInitThreads multiple times may have been contributing to crashes. (Harold L Hunt II)
Enjoy,
Harold
