        to 1.20.0.0 (upstream build)
          + Fixes https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/600
          + Incompatible with XP & Vista
          + Unmodified except for strip-nondeterminism being run on .gz files
+      - src/onmainwindow.{cpp,h}: don't error out directly if starting the X.Org
+        Server failed on Windows. Instead, try starting it three
times, each
+        time with a higher DISPLAY offset. On busy client machines, several
+        clients raced for the sockets previously and often failed to start. Also
+        check if the server binary actually is still alive before doing the TCP
+        connection checks. A dead server won't be able to listen on a socket in
+        the first place.
+      - {src/{onmainwindow.{cpp,h},help.cpp},man/man1/x2goclient.1}: add new
+        option --xserver-start-limit, replacing the formerly hardcoded limit of
+        three tries.
+      - copy-deps-win32.bat: update to 20180615-1 Cygwin bundle, shipping with
+        a further modified OpenSSH Server version at 7.7p1-1-x2go1 and without
+        chgrp.
+      - src/onmainwindow.cpp: disable private host key permissions check in
+        OpenSSH Server on Windows. Fixes: #1156.

Windows-Specific Bug Fixes =====
- [[https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/600|nx-libs issue 600]] When you connect to an x2go server with nx-libs 3.6 beta (3.5.99.x) rather than nx-libs 3.5.0.x stable, you would likely experience the Desktop flashing when maximizing window. (Despite the title of the issue, it can be experienced with a single screen/monitor on Windows.) Many Linux distros have adopted nx-libs 3.6 beta, such as Fedora 28 & Ubuntu 18.04 . (x2goserver 4.1.0.0 added support for nx-libs 3.6 beta, so it is correlated with it.)

  ===== Noteworthy Windows-Specific Bugs =====
  
  [[http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=611|bug 611]] The server cannot be added to the known_hosts file (and thus you cannot connect to the server) when both of these conditions are met: 1. Your Windows username has non-English characters. 2 Those characters are in a different language than the Windows "system locale".
