well, *I* solved my problems reinstalling winXP but that's was because 
of a corruption of my installation.

I don't understand what can be the cause of your CVS problems; your 
CVSROOT is set to:

:ssh:jo...@cv...:/cvsroot/wxcode

?

anyway, if the files are created, you can terminate CVS client using 
brute force and then work on the files which have been checked-out; 
isn't it ?

I know that SF also creates nightly CVS tarballs for wxCode at:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cvstarballs/wxcode-cvsroot.tar.bz2

but I don't know how to use that tarballs (they are some sort of CVS 
backups which keep trace of all the modifications on all the files of 
the repository...)... does anyone know ?
