[Please do not cc me on replies. I am subscribed to the list, I am only cc'ing you because you do not appear to be on the list; if you are on the list, please ask me to stop cc'ing you.]

From a Cygwin bash shell, run 'set' and report the values of any of the following:

XAPPLRESDIR

Hi Harold,

I've updated as follows:

Unfortunately it hasn't fixed the problem:

This gives the signature three attempts followed by a crah of Xwin.exe.

My installation is a new install from last week using the Base packages,
no

additions except XFree86, no config changes.

Well, then your installation was from an out of date mirror. XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-20 was released on October 17th, and there have been 20 versions released since then with major changes:

http://xfree86.cygwin.com/devel/server/changelog.html

Please rerun Cygwin's setup.exe and let it update your distribution for you. A known-good mirror is mirrors.kernel.org.

By the way, could you report the mirror that you used? Somebody should check it for trouble.

Hope that helps,

Harold
