(hope this is not too much OT) You might want to look at Sadly, it is far more sluggish, than even on a 1Ghz 256M RAM P4. What is really nice about the latest Cygwin, is that plain X Window is now rootless by default, so no Window Manager is needed. Perhaps you can remove the root X window, by clicking on the X symbol in the system tray. I saw somewhere a program, that is supposed to facilitate sharing between the X clipboard and the w32 clipboard. If someone has a recommendation, please post!
