It should work with 1.1.2. Which DLL initialization error
was it reporting, one from X or one of the Windows DirctX? I forgot.
We had no problem on Win NT/2000 and Millenium, except a few
users who mixed the X11R6.4 DLLs with XFree86 DLLs, a couple
of them had multiple cygwin1.dll in path which also cuased Xwin to crash.
