strange behaviour of xemacs


Hi,

I have a Windows XP laptop where I've installed cygwin. I open an xterm using rxvt and log on some linux box:

D:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -ls -si -sk -sb -fg black -bg Wheat -fn 7x14 -g 120x24 -T "linappserv2.pp.rhul.ac.uk" -e ssh -X -Y -l <loginname> linappserv2.pp.rhul.ac.uk

I now run xemacs on the linux box:

xemacs test.txt

At this point I cannot use any of the xemacs commands; for example if I do Ctrl spacebar (that should set the starting point for selecting a portion of the file) the xemacs window starts going berserk and I cannot even close it using Ctrl x Ctrl c. My only chance to do anything is to close the window clicking the X at the upper right corner.
The behaviour is the same whatever linux box I log-in to and also if I run xemacs opening an xterm on my laptop. Any idea what it might be ?


Cheers,

Fab
