To follow up on my previous message... I still don't know why the X11 server could not read the keyboard, but the following remedy fixed the problem. I have simply wiped out my whole Cygwin, downloaded the whole new and complete edition, reinstalled it, and... it all works now.
I can only fathom that as my old version of Cygwin evolved, with numerous updates applied, some permissions somewhere, or some dlls perhaps, ended up not being what they should have been. == Zdzislaw (Gustav) Meglicki, Office of the Vice President for Information Technology, Indiana University, 601 E.
