The problem is not that there is no X11-forwarding. For example, gv from the Linux remote host produces the correct display on the cygwin X-server. Similarly, xdvi and even netscape also work. However, if I try to run ical, a linux calendar program, I get the following error message:
X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 18 (X_ChangeProperty) Atom id in failed request: 0x105 Serial number of failed request: 13 Current serial number in output stream: 16
Lets try this again. You asked for help, I tried to help you, you can at least READ IT THIS TIME!
