After a fairly recent update of cygwin, I now find that all my X
windows (xterm, emacs, etc.) have color and font problems. Non-x
terminal windows are fine. Windows 7 is running as a VM on an esxi
hypervisor, so I view it remotely with Microsoft Remote Desktop. It
worked well on a previous cygwin release, but I don't have the exact
date when it changed. Also, I don't think the problem is with MRD
because I see it with VNC also.
I tried attaching cygcheck.out and XWin.0.log but the mail bounced
with the message "552 spam score exceeded threshold".
Thanks,
Jeff Schenck
