Today I performed a full install of cygwin on WinXP from scratch and xwin failed to initialise. I've included log below:
It would appear that xwin is trying to unuse unsupported kernel features, however I'm clueless if i must be really honest. Please could you explain what's going on from the attached log (below).
Regards,
Brad Carr
