Re: timed out waiting for reply from selection owner
Any thoughts on this? I am heavily dependent on XEmacs/cygwin and with cut paste broken I am feeling very handicapped. Any work-around?

Unfortunately it is lacking information to be useful. You might consider reading the problem reporting guidelines at [1] and trying again. In this particular case, attaching the /var/log/XWin.0.log to show the context for the error message is would be sensible. I apologize for incomplete information. Today I found XEmacs reporting timeout almost immediately after starting Visual Studio. I have attached both XWin.0.log and output from cygcheck.

timed out waiting for reply from selection owner
This is rather strange and I don't even know if I have a correct repro. The symptoms I see is that I am able to copy in X (XEmacs or xterm) and paste in Windows but not vice-versa. Immediately after I start X copy/paste works both ways. I suspect this has something to do with Microsoft Visual Studio. It seems to hijack the clipboard and copy/paste stops working altogether. I found this using a utility GetOpenClipboardWindow I found on the net. When copy/paste across windows Apps stops working, this utility always reports that VSS owns the clipboard. I often have to kill VS to get other programs to interact with the clipboard. But even after I kill VS Studio, Cygwin-X is not able to get data from the clipboard. Any time I paste in X I see the above message in /var/log/XWin.0.log Any suggestions what might be wrong and how I can work-around this issue?

Re: psexec does not work under cygwin-X
Hello, It seems psexec (from sysinternals) does not work correctly under cygwin-X. If I run it at the bash prompt in a command window it completes normally but from a rxvt or xterm window it stops after the first line of output from the remote process. I am trying to write some bash scripts that run some processes on remote machines. I would like for them to be run under X, though that's not an absolute requirement. Is there a work-around for this?

XEmacs function rtf-clip-region no longer works within X
Hello, I recently installed cygwin on my new laptop and see this strange behavior. When I start XEmacs within X then the function rtf-clip-region, does not seem to work. After calling this function, pasting in Word pastes as plain text. If I start XEmacs outside X then the function works as expected. The same is true of the sibling function rtf-clip-buffer. On the other hand, rtf-export works correctly both within and outside X. I checked on my old machine that rtf-clip-* functions work correctly. That machine has the same version of XEmacs (21.4 (patch 22) \Instant Classic\ XEmacs Lucid) Attached file cygcheck.out contains the output of cygcheck -s -v -r.

Re: change resolution?
Thank you for your responses, Bengt-Arne Fjellner Bengt-Arne dot Fjellner at ltu dot se and Jeff dot Blosser at wellsfargo dot com. Bengt-Arne, I will try your suggestion, it should be a good workaround. By lose a window do you mean that the owning process will also die? Or just that the window will no longer be accessible? Jeff, I do not have windows Netmeeting running. I do have VNC Server running. Would that make a difference? I think what I am looking for is either the behavior - you get when the virtual desktop is larger then the screen size; the screen is a scrolling window over the desktop - some way to dynamically resize windows, like MS does for its windows. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. - hemal On 12/4/06, Hemal Pandya wrote: Hello, I use cygwin-xfree on a laptop; either using the laptop's display or by docking it and using an external display.
