In a different posting it was said that it is the fontserver package, 
this is a different package.  How should we debug this problem without 
correct information?

This is the first posting I see about this issue where I read a detailed 
description, all the others I read (maybe I have not seen all of them) 
were about some readme file, fontserver..., nothing useful.

I just reinstalled this xorg-x11-fscl package now, it works fine on NT4 
AND it works fine on XP/SP2.

$ cygcheck -c xorg-x11-fscl
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
xorg-x11-fscl        6.8.1.0-2      OK


Why don't you send the output of cygcheck -srv as an attachment?

Maybe your mount table is broken?  Maybe your XP/SP2 is broken?

Why are you not providing more information?  You cannot expect that we 
can fix a problem which we don't have, I cannot help debugging it 
without even seeing the problem.
