Does the log file contain any useful information, by any chance?
None. Cygwin/XFree86 doesn't get an error, only xterm does.
Do you think you could do a
strace -ox:\somewhere\strace.out sh startxwin.sh , bzip2 strace.out,
I just refreshed the 2002-06-29 snapshot a couple of minutes ago.
Please try it.
Thanks,

Huh... the subject says it all.
Same error as before:
setuid failed: Permission denied
You know, xterm is calling perror (setuid failed)... so perror must know the
last errno... ah, I don't know what else to say...

Chris,
Hmm. If you do a:
mount -f -X -b c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin /usr/X11R6/bin
does the problem go away, perchance? I would expect it to.
Tried it, didn't work. See below. Any other syntax hints?
Yeah, if you are going

Sorry if this is ends being the UID/GID, USER/HOME directory, or font
problem.
If it is the first two then the just released version of cygwin, 1.3.12-1,
should fix it.
