cygwin/x: x starts, but does nothing

[?man]

I installed cygwin with all the packages. I made a batch file called "xwin.bat"
that runs xwin located in my home dir, so that I dont have to navigate to the
file every time.

Here is the content of "xwin.bat":

------------------------------

@echo off

chdir C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin

startxwin

------------------------------

Here is the cygwin shell log i took:

------------------------------

What happens is X starts, but does nothing. The mouse remains the "X" cursor,
and the background remains the black and white checker pattern. The only
thing I can do is close it from the Windows close button, and it confirms
exiting.

Since the only error I see that is not totally disregarded in the FAQ/User
manuals online is "Could not init font path element
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing from list!", I tried following the
instructions to reinstall the fonts in the FAQ. However, I still get this
error.

I navigated in windows explorer to the C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts
directory, but no \CIV directory exists. However, there are about 9 other
directories, some containing other fonts.

I want to know if this is the problem, or if I am doing something else wrong,
such as a missing command line parameter needed to do anything.
Thank you for your time.
