You review (and possible upload) the output from this directory: /var/log/xwin You could at least then confirm the xwin application is running, and starting (even if it then crashes)...

Is it possible for you to upload the output of stracing that run command somewhere? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
