Using startx script without opening cygwin bash command window

[ramerkw]

Hi,

I've been following this thread as a lurker and hopefully this message
will be threaded with those already posted.  I have tried several of the
suggestions.  They work mostly, but I can't seem to get  wmaker going
as does a 'startx' command.   

Using the shortcut with XWin .... just brings up an empty, unresponsive root.

Tried mv'ing my .xserverrc with no success.  

.xinit -- 
exec wmaker

.xsession 
exec wmaker

properties of shortcut:
C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -l -c "XWin -fullscreen -clipboard -emulate3buttons 50&"

Suggestions are welcome.
