Does window maker require SHM? Maybe you should consider running cygserver
for shared memory support.

The font should be installed with the xorg-x11-fnts packages. Please verify that
the font is available:

$ xlsfonts -fn "-*-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"

should print about 30 entries. If it does not then do

$ rm /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/fonts.dir
$ font-update

This does not seem to be related to the font issue. Are you sure there is no 
other window manager running?
