Cygwin, Xorg, KDE, and RedHat
red floyd
If I'm in the wrong place, I apologize, and ask that you direct me to
the correct place.
I'm running Cygwin Xorg 6.8.2 (experimental XWin_GL server) under XPSP1
and a RHEL 3 box.
When I connect to the RHEL system from the cygwin box, using ssh -X, and
try to start KDE (by startkde), I get a series of errors shown below.
When I don't use X tunnelling by SSH, but instead explicitly set
DISPLAY=[cygwin box]:0, and run startkde, I do not get these errors.
Has anyone seen anything like this?

Try using "ssh -Y" instead of "ssh -X" so the X server trusts the
remote clients. It's vaguely possible that this is the problem.
