RE: Intermittent X clipboard failure
Whatever the cause is, and it does appear to be related to the Office
clipboard at this point, it would be nice to get some closure on this.
This behavior has been reported by multiple people. Information to we
need to get to developers to properly diag the problem?
The goal as I see it should be for subsequent releases of cygwin-x to
not have this problem or to have explicit instructions on how to avoid
it.

At least I didn't have these problems before last December, when my
laptop
was migrated
from w2k to Vista, and I had to reinstall Cygwin from scratch, getting
in
fact both upgrades
in the same time.
But I confirm (again) that checking out the boxes in the Office
clipboard
seems to solve the
problem, even so that I do not notice any loss of functionality (just
the
popups in the
bottom-right corner...).
