problem using XWin

Dear cygwin contact,

I have installed cygwin software on my PC, IBM Thinkpad R40, running 
Windows Xp-pro.

when using XWin soft, an X window opens, but the program stops after 
displaying:
winPointerWarpCursor - Discarding first warp: 637 493
(see below the .log file)
no more control available, except the kill command (ctrl-C) which ends 
the process.

I did not find answers in the Faq site:
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html

Any help suggestion to solve this dysfunction would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance
