Hi,
I recently upgraded a computer running XP Embedded to Cygwin 1.7.1.
When I ssh from another computer, and run a graphical program (such as
the calculator included in Win XP), it doesn't display correctly.
If I run the program from a local ssh shell, it does display correctly.
Here's a picture which shows both a locally run instance (bottom left)
and a remotely run instance (top right).

I have given the sshd service permission to interact with the desktop.
I downgraded to Cygwin 1.5.5 and didn't have this problem.
I tried de-installing and re-installing the service with cygrunsrv
--remove and --install, but it didn't help.
Anyone have any ideas? Perhaps a bug in the latest Cygwin?
Thanks!
-Dan
