Re: X server window resizes after remote desktop, and can't resize back
Here is another example of the problem where remote desktop causes the X server window to resize but on logging in locally it doesn't get restored to its former size. If the bug is tricky to fix, a possible workaround would be to let the user manually override the size of the X server window, for example by enabling the Maximize button.

Mouse pointer disappears
With the current Cygwin X server (or what is as close as I can get to the current one, because cygwin.com is unreachable for me) I have noticed that the mouse pointer disappears when the window has focus. If I just move the pointer over the X server window and it isn't focused then the pointer changes into a correct X pointer for the application running in the X server (for example it changes into an up-down arrow when hovering over the modeline in xemacs). But as soon as I click in the X server window to give it focus, the mouse pointer disappears and remains disappeared as long as the pointer location is above the X server window, and that window is focused. I can't reproduce this every time but I have seen it on a few occasions.

X server window resizes after remote desktop, and can't resize back
I remote desktop'd into my XP machine using a smaller display size than the monitor connected locally. When I went back in front of the machine I found that the X server window had shrunk to roughly the size of the remote desktop screen, but had not grown back again when I logged in locally. The maximize button on the window is greyed out and I can't resize the window using its borders, so there seems to be no way to restore the original size. The log (shown below) indicates that the X server did notice the change of screen size, but for whatever reason didn't resize its window. I think it is a bug that the window didn't get restored to its original size, but I'd also like to request some kind of manual resizing option (perhaps ungreying the maximize button) so the server can be fixed if the problem happens again.

Re: Still clipboard deadlock with 4.3.0-50
Harold L Hunt II [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-49 has some changes that may help to recover from and/or to prevent the deadlock situations. Unfortunately even after updating with the setup program and rebooting, running XWin.exe -clipboard can hang Windows apps when I try to paste into them. Did you ever confirm for me that you are *not* also running xwinclip at the same time as using -clipboard? I have used -clipboard and I have used xwinclip, but never both at the same time. The log that you show below confirms that you *do not* have 4.3.0-50 installed, or that you are running some other version from your startup scripts. There should be a 5 line block at the top of the log file since 4.3.0-49, but your log doesn't have it. That's what I suspected, but the setup program is quite sure it installed -50... I will check the timestamp on Xwin.exe and make sure I'm not running an old copy. -- Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Feature request: version report
Harold L Hunt II [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: If you could add some means to manually kill and/or restart the clipboard code inside the X server then I could switch back without the risk of losing work, I would add a manual kill/restart as a last resort in a few months. Until then I would prefer to swat bugs rather than try to work around the problem. I agree that fixing the bugs is better, but as well as testing XWin to find bugs I also try to use it for work, and if Windows apps hang unrecoverably then I can't use the clipboard support. So you may be able to swat bugs faster if users can use the software with less risk. XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-49 has some changes that may help to recover from and/or to prevent the deadlock situations. Please try it and let me know if it improves things or not. Thanks for looking at this - I will try 4.3.0-50. (And try running with -clipboard once again.) -- Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED]

xwinclip consistently unable to open clipboard
Because of experiencing hangs when using the built-in clipboard support (see other threads), I have switched to running xwinclip.exe separately. It normally works but recently, with the X server having been running for a while, xwinclip died with 'unable to open clipboard'. The full output was UnicodeSupport - Windows NT/2000/XP Unicode clipboard I/O SelectionNotify - Reasserted ownership of ATOM: PRIMARY [above line repeated many times] OpenClipboard () failed: Previously, I've had xwinclip crash but been able to restart it. But now when I try to restart xwinclip it dies immediately: UnicodeSupport - Windows NT/2000/XP Unicode clipboard I/O OpenClipboard () failed: Hmm, I was going to say, this happens every time I run it. But during the course of writing this message I pasted some text from the command prompt window into PuTTY, and that seems to have cured the problem - xwinclip is now chugging away happily. So I just mention this in case it is interesting - sorry that I can't reproduce the problem every time. I am running XFree86-xserv 4.3.0-44 and XFree86-xwinclip 4.3.0-2. -- Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Minor progress on Windows clipboard deadlock
Oyvind Harboe [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: [pasting from X to Windows hangs the Windows app] I would say that there is inconclusive evidence that this this deadlock does not occur under W2K with a single monitor, but only on a XP machine w/multiple monitors. Yes, I am using XP and two monitors, and I was pasting from the X server displayed on one monitor to an app displayed in the other. I think. I have not tested that the deadlock does not occur when not using two monitors. -- Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Feature request: version report
Harold L Hunt II [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Regarding xwinclip, you should really be using (XWin -clipboard) There are a couple of problems with -clipboard (discussed earlier on this list) which have led me to switch back to xwinclip: - Clipboard support seems to die, that is, the Windows clipboard and the X selection stop affecting one another. xwinclip also tends to die occasionally but when this happens it can be restarted. - Windows apps hanging when I try to paste into them. This seems to have started since I began using two displays (though I am not 100% sure). This bug reliably kills any Windows application so it is too dangerous for me to run XWin with clipboard enabled. I have not seen this problem with xwinclip. If you could add some means to manually kill and/or restart the clipboard code inside the X server then I could switch back without the risk of losing work, and I'd be happy to report the contents of Xwin.log on the occasions when such a manual restart was necessary. (In general, I think the clipboard support could be a bit noisier in its logging since the contents of XWin.log never seems to give much away about clipboard or selection change events - but maybe it is more informative to you than to me.) -- Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: XWin causes Windows apps to hang(?)
Harold L Hunt II [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: [Windows app hangs when pasting to it from X] Yes, the OpenClipboard failure is probably causing your crash. Try editing your startxwin.bat and removing the -clipboard parameter being passed to XWin.exe. If I do that then I can run a separate xwinclip.exe. If xwinclip gets into a wedged state then it can be killed and restarted. There is likely a bug in XWin.exe's clipboard support that will need to be fixed. Let me know if you would like me to do something to help reproduce or track down this bug. -- Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: XWin causes Windows apps to hang(?)
Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: - I copied a URL from an email message in Evolution - When I paste into a Windows app, that Windows app is stuck. This happened w/iexplorer and explorer.exe. It appears as if the Windows app is stuck indefinitely waiting for the pastable from XWin. I am seeing this too. I tried pasting into several different applications, in all cases it caused the app to hang and I had to kill it using the task manager. Here is the XWin.log for an X session that does this. The server is running happily but it will crash any Windows app I try to paste into from the X selection.

Re: remote xemacs and selection problem (using XWin -clipboard)
Kris Thielemans [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I have a problem running XEmacs remotely. When I press ctrl-space, I do get 'mark set', but when I then press Ctrl-w to cut something, I get 'The region is not active now'. The problem disappears when I remove the -clipboard option from Xwin. I think you can fix this by setting transient-mark-mode. I know I had the same problem with my XEmacs, and fixed it somehow, but strangely I can't find any mention of transient-mark-mode in my ~/.emacs or ~/.xemacs/ although I do get the behaviour it turns on - not highlighting the region when it is selected with the keyboard. -- Ed Avis [EMAIL PROTECTED]
