Here's what I do: - Start cygwin XLaunch for the Windows 10 desktop - Select "Multiple windows" - Launch the lxterminal locally - In an lxterminal tab do the command ssh -Y myhost.mydomain.lan - In the ssh session give the command ~/eclipse/java-oxygen/eclipse/eclipse
What happens is that: 1. First the banner starts and displays normally 2. Then a window shows up squashed to a point, there is an eclipse icon (possibly intended for the toolbar) near the point, but it can't be selected 3. It's not possible to stretch or resize the point 4. I tried pressing the return to select the default in the workspace select dialog (which is the first dialog to open when eclipse is started normally) I think the problem is with cygwin X and/or the way I'm running it, because I have tried doing "ssh -Y " from a terminal window on the debian computer's mate desktop to a different computer, and then doing a new "ssh -Y" from the remote computer and back to the debian and then started eclipse on the debian computer. And that eclipse started normally, running through two ssh X forwards. Does anyone know what might be causing the eclipse display problem, and what I can do to fix it?
