Re: eclipse 3.0.1 input problem

["Joe Hughes" <jhughesjr at comcast dot net>]

I too am having this same problem.

I have been using cygwin/xwin for a few years now and have had no other 
problems (besides an issue with purify that the numlock fix resolved for 
me a year or 2 ago.)

I am attempting to use eclipse-SDK-3.0.2-solaris-motif.zip for Solaris 8
and:
Welcome to the XWin X Server
Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project
Release: 6.8.2.0-1

Contact: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com

Any additional info you need I will provide.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Joe
