Hi all:
I recently hit the foreign keyboard problem described in section 4.1.6

Can anyone help me on this? Thank you!
In other words, I want to do the opposite of everyone else.
I want to run an application on windows and see it remotely from Linux
machine. From linux I would:
ssh -Y machine.that.goes.ping
to windows host running cygwin/X.
Then execute something like

you can look at the sources for run.exe (available via Cygwin setup) and

Hmm. The cygstart utility is for starting application / opening files as
