Hi,
It is nice to have cygwin/xfree86. I have really wanted it.
So I downloaded all the files and started to install without any hesitation.
I did not expect that I would install and use successfully at one time.
The problem that I have now is as following.
1. When I run 'startxwin.bat' at dos window, big screen(almost full) is poped up with big 'X' cursor
    and it just stays forever. It does not give me a xterm or other things.
2. So I tried to run 'startx' at the bash shell. It runs O.K. but cygwin/xfree86 window size is always
    640x480. I have tried to do several things sunch as 'XWin -screen 0 ....' which is mentioned in
    this mail archives but would not work.]
3. Even it was O.K. with small size window, x server is crashed when I connect to unix machine(SUN)
    and tried to run some application such as 'hspice' graphical interface.
I am using win98se korean version. Any comment on this problem would be helpful for me.
