I also have a problem with my start icon that doesn't seem to pick up my
custom parameters. The command is:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c /usr/bin/startxwin.exe
-xkblayout ca -xkbvariant fr -emulate3buttons
The layout is always US and the 3 button emulation doesn't work either.
You need to quote the part after -c, and you're also missing a '--'
(see the startxwin documentation). Try
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c '/usr/bin/startxwin.exe
-- -xkblayout ca -xkbvariant fr -emulate3buttons'

Thanks, that worked like a charm! I had tried quoting and the "--" but I
guess I didn't try the right combination.
