Can run Eclipse from a remote Linux box.

[Michael March]

First.. the version of Cygwin:

  $ uname -a
  CYGWIN_NT-5.1 maupin-ng 1.5.21(0.156/4/2) 2006-07-30 14:21 i686 Cygwin

Here is what I get on the remote command line:

  [mmarch@server mmarch]$ eclipse
  The program 'EasyEclipse' received an X Window System error.
  This probably reflects a bug in the program.
  The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 1602 error_code 3 request_code 38 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)


Here is what the local console says:

  mmarch@maupin-ng ~
  $ startx
