Hello,

I've just installed the lastest Cygwin distribution on a P4 running W2000.

If I start Cygwin/X with  /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.bat  the invocation 
fails withj the following error log XWin.log
---------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to the XWin X Server
Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project
Release: 6.7.0.0-10

Contact: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com

winInitializeDefaultScreens - w 1024 h 768
winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning
XWin was started with the following command line:

X

winValidateArgs - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1
winCheckDisplayNumber - Cygwin/X is already running on display 0

Fatal server error:
InitOutput - Duplicate invocation on display number: 0.  Exiting.

winDeinitMultiWindowWM - Noting shutdown in progress
----------------------------------------------------------------
If I start with
 
c:
chdir \cygwin\bin
SET MAKE_MODE=UNIX
SET DISPLAY=localhost:0
bash --login -i

An xterm is opened successfully, and seems OK, although the log file 
contains this information:

(--) winConfigKeyboard - Layout: "00000409" (00000409)
(EE) Keyboardlayout "US" (00000409) is unknown
Rules = "xorg" Model = "pc101" Layout = "us" Variant = "(null)" Options 
= "(null)"
Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing 
from list!
winPointerWarpCursor - Discarding first warp: 509 357
winProcEstablishConnection - Hello
winProcEstablishConnection - Clipboard is not enabled, returning.

In other words, there is a problem with the keyboard layout, and the 
clipboard is not enabled.  Are these serious problems, and if so can I 
fix them?

Thanks
Gib
