Re: Dfficulty with xorg-server-1.17.1-2.

At this point, I can not right-click on the 'X' icon to do anything.
Once I exit gdb, then I can. How can I get past this?

Odd.  Are you sure you are using the current, cygwin gdb?

But let's step back a moment, since I don't think you have the same problem as the OP.

[   164.799] winClipboardProc - winClipboardFlushWindowsMessageQueue
trapped WM_QUIT message, exiting main loop.

Perhaps we need to be a little more specific about what we mean by 'crashing'.

This log message probably means that the X server is just spontaneously deciding it should exit, rather than exiting due to a program error signal with the "A fatal error has occurred" dialog.

Can you provide a full Xwin.0.log file, please?

I am assuming that this problem started with xorg-server 1.17 and reverting to 1.16.3-1 fixes it?
