X connections reset on PC sleep

[Ray Balogh]

Sorry, I’m sure this is a known issue, but I can’t seem to locate any 
description of the problem in the FAQ, docs, or mailing list archives.

The problem is that when my PC sleeps, my X connections get reset with

           xterm: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) or 
KillClient on X server “somehost:0”

although the Cygwin/X server (Ver. 1.13.1) is still running. I’ve enabled 
logging, but I don’t see anything at all in the log file.

Is there some configuration to stop Cygwin/X from doing this? It’s extremely 
inconvenient to have to recreate all my windows if I happen to step away 
from the system for a while. I’m running the X clients under a Ubuntu VM 
(VMware Player), in case that is significant.

Thanks in advance for your advice!

Ray
