I've been trying Xming. I was using cygwin/x but it has issues on my dual-core XP x64 machine. Intermittently X-related processes, either the server or the client, would go into a busy-loop, fully pegging one core. So far this hasn't happened under Xming, but since it's intermittent, it'll take some time to know for sure if it's happens under Xming.

Have not had a chance to try Xming yet, so if anyone else has, would love to hear back from you. I probably will try it sometime over the next month, however. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/cywin-x-issues-tf2344901.html#a6855398 Sent from the cygwin-xfree mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- 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/
