Hi,

I uninstalled all Logitech stuff and ran rebaseall. The error messages
went away but the freezing up did not.

I found a thread in the cygwin-xfree list from May which describes my
problem and a kludgey fix:

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2010-05/msg00000.html

The kudgey fix is to keep xeyes running in the background to keep the
x11 process from "sleeping" or whatever it's doing, or reverting to an
earlier version.

Interestingly enough I do not have this problem with a newer Windows 7
machine which I just installed on for the first time.

Leigh
