For the record, after filing an incident report with VMware they identified the problem as caused by the VMware mouse driver. Installing a standard mouse driver fixed the problem. This was with VMware v3.1.1-1491 and cygwin 3.1.0. I suspect the next version of VMware will have the problem fixed. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ABO: finger abo@minkirri.apana.org.au for more info, including pgp key ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
