I found out that the .xinitrc parameters are used with startx. I start the normal bash and type in startx. This start Xserver and SC. And SC works fine. C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe -p /usr/X11R6/bin/ startx -display 127.0.0.1:0.0 do not work because startx is a script not an .exe C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe -p /usr/local/bin/ sylpheed-claws.exe -display 127.0.0.1:0.0 start SC for a second. I can see this in the task-manager. I think it is not possible to start SC from one icon without typing something Dirk -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
