I have this problem intermittently.
It seems to only happen when I forget to hit Ctrl-C on the windows side.
I forget that just highlighting the text isn't good enough after being
spoiled on the X side.

I run XWin.exe -multiwindow -clipboard -dpi 100 . I can copy and paste from X
to Windows clients, but not from Windows to X clients. Windows to Windows
and X to X copies also work fine.
I know I've seen postings about this problem in the past, but I can't find
anything recent about it and I don't know what the status is. The problem
has persisted for me for a long time, on two different Windows XP boxes.
Any help appreciated. cygcheck -svr is attached.
