Cygwin X11 server won't start
I had a Windows 7 crash this afternoon and now Cygwin/X server won't start. I've attached a couple files. Any idea how to correct this? Things have been OK for weeks. I'm worried about these two items: [33.977] Could not load crashreporter dll [48.438] (EE) Error compiling keymap (server-0) My ~/.startxwinrc contains: xrdb ~/.Xresources sleep infinity I tried removing the file, but the problem continues.
