The problem was caused by one of the Keyboard drivers that was installed under Windows 7. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the driver. What keyboard drivers are installed on your Windows XP system? Scot

Theproblem was caused by one of the Keyboard drivers that was installed under Windows 7. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the driver.>What keyboard drivers are installed on your Windows XP system?>ScotHmmm - there are two drivers: One for the 'HID' Keyboard (C:\Windows\system32\DIVERS\kbdclass.sys, C:\Windows\system32\DIVERS\kbdhid.sys) and one for a standard kyeboard with 101 / 102 Keys or MS Natural Keyboard (C:\Windows\system32\DIVERS\i8042prt.sys, C:\Windows\system32\DIVERS\kbdclass.sys). Last night I did some research and found out, that the X-Server which is coming with the Cygwin project is working fine (but slower) usind the same settings on my BSD Box.
