I use xming and xlaunch and they work perfectly for me. I use it mostly to run HP-UX gpm and Informix OnPerf and haven't seen issues. I've also used it for an XDMCP login to Linux, Sun, and HP systems with 100% success.<br>

use to display X-Windows on your MS-Windows desktops/laptops?</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Previously we installed Xming (a subset of the Cygwin stuff)
but I never really used it to a great extent. The powers that be got wind of
Cygwin from someone else and now think they want to replace Exceed with it.
However, my coworker had told me there were some things he’d seen issues
with Xming (though I never saw them). Does anyone have experience using
Cygwin/Xming to display commercial UNIX (HP-UX, AIX, Solaris) and Linux
X-Windows? If so do you know of any gotchas such as rendering problems with
specific X apps?</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Does anyone have any other FOSS X-Windows package suggestion
for MS-Windws?</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Also as I recall there is another commercial X-Windows
package but its name escapes me. If anyone is using that and has opinions of
it as compared to Exceed or Cygwin/Xming I’d be interested in hearing it.</span></font></p>
