Re: XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-47 copy/paste trouble and BadAtom.


Keith and Igor, thanks for this thread

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2004-02/msg00288.html.

The reasoning is still beyond my ken, mostly because I haven't yet
digested the right set of man pages.

Nonetheless, it solved my problem, as described in

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2004-02/msg00262.html,

which was my just dessert for wielding Cygwin setup.exe so freely.

(I'm not on the cygwin-xfree list anymore, hence the links instead of a
simpler 'reply'.)

Incidentally, should I be seeing

	Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11
forwarding.

when using ssh and X-forwarding (now with ForwardX11Trusted = yes)? It
looks like I have cookies in the right place. xauth report the same ones
on both the local and remote machine. Though, I have gnawing concerns
about the host part of the display name in those cookies; the
(alphabetic) cases do not match. Hum. I should try to share cookies
again (xauth extract, scp, xauth merge).

Ultimately, the above message is only unaesthetic; I haven't noticed
that it impacts performance.

Thanks and regards,

Vince Virgilio
