I'm trying to use Cygwin and especially the X server on Windows Vista. I ran into the same problems everyone did with sh.exe stalling and so on. Forcing it to an invalid keyboard rule (Start X with -xbkrules WinVista) fixed this issue for me. But after I installed the cygwin.dll version 1.5.23-2 it also worked without this keyboard rule work around. But I still have two very annoying issues right now: If I start X, it's using close to 100% of CPU. This started after I applied the new cygwin.dll patch. I let my PC run all the time and connect to it via RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) from various RDP clients (work, home). If I now have some xterm or other X-client windows open and disconnect from my PC and reconnect later, X and all windows will be un-responsive most of the time. This happens for sure, if some other window popped up in front of the X-windows in the meantime or if the screen resolution changes (when I use a different RDP client to connect to my PC). Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I'm using the latest patches, cygwin.dll version 1.5.23-2 and X.org base 6.8.99.901-1. Any help would be appreciated.
