I found on my most recent installation of Cygwin, that my laptop wouldn't paste when hitting both mouse buttons. I figured that "emulate 3 mouse buttons" wasn't enabled.
I tried adding "-emulate3buttons" to the .xinitrc and the .xserverrc, but that didn't work. To get "emulate 3 mouse buttons" working in cygwin, change the following lines in the /usr/X11R6/bin/startx file:
from:
defaultserverargs="-multiwindow -clipboard"
to:
defaultserverargs="-multiwindow -clipboard -emulate3buttons"
It also appears thet the "-emulate3buttons" can also optionally take a [timeout] argument.
