can not start 'startx' from the prompt and missing files

[Andrew Markebo]

Hi!

Hmm where does it say to copy .xinitrc to your home subdir? Nothing I
have seen.. 

To get it running, I don't need to do anything.. ;-) Maybe a small
modification of the cygwin-stuff on your site?

Shortly, seems like you are using someone else's instructions.
