This is really annoying me... Not your fault or cygwin's. I am going to
do a fresh install of everything cygwin, xfree and then kde. Maybe that
will fix it. For what ever reason (probably my fault) startx does not
work. Maybe I should read the docs with xfree and see if I need to
configure startx before running.
Anyway I will let you know if reinstallation works.
Thanks,
Louis
