I have this setup on my desktop computer (Windows 2000) and it works fine.
I attempted to do the same thing on my laptop and it fails if I try to bring up the "textedit" editor.
however it works for xterm, and some other applications.
I'm using startxwin.bat to startup the X-session.
it's doing a:
start XWin -multiwindow -clipboard
run xterm -s1 1000 -sb -rightbar -ms -red -fg yellow -bg black -e /usr/bin/bash -l
the error I see is:
X Error (intercepted): BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major Request Code: 7 Minor Request Code: 0 Resource ID (XID): 58 Error Serial Number: 48 XView warning: invalid object (not a pointer), xv_get finished; X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 7 (X_ReparentWindow) Resource id in failed request: 0x3a Serial number of failed request: 48 Current serial number in output stream: 57
------------------------- this also works someones and fails other times.
We've reloaded cygwin a couple times to make sure we had the latest software. Chuck
