[X2Go-Dev] Good news everyone (XMing patches are public)

[Michael DePaulo]

I was talking with the Cygwin X11 maintainer (jturney, Jon Turney) on
#cygwin on freenode and he pointed out that XMing's patches to the
X.org source code are public, even though the binaries require a
"donation":
http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingCode/
http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingCode/xserver/

When debugging/fixing issues with VcXsrv (which X2Go Client for
Windows bundles), these patches could be helpful.

BTW, the Cygwin Xwin code is kept here:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jturney/xserver/
You'll want to look at specific branches though, such as:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jturney/xserver/log/?h=cygwin-release-1.15
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jturney/xserver/log/?h=cygwin-release-1.17

And Jon Turney said that upstream X.org does compile under MinGW.
