I find that after installing the latest version of Cygwin just now, X crashes if I try to start it via startx (not starting with -rootless or -multiwindow), with the error
wmaker fatal error: it seems that there is already a window manager running waiting for X server to shut down xterm: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) or KillClient on X server ":0.0" The Xwin.log ends with: winMultiWindowXMsgProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened the display. winClipboardProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened the display. winClipboardWindowProc - WM_DRAWCLIPBOARD - Initializing - Returning. winClipboardProc - Call to select () failed: -1. Bailing. winClipboardProc - XDestroyWindow succeeded. ddxBeforeReset - Hello winClipboardIOErrorHandler! Yet I can start it up if I run xinit. Any suggestions? luke
