Weird. This one is beyond me.

It should, once Xwin.exe (which also produces the X icon) is running.

If you suspect PATH length may be an issue, try abbreviating it as a 
test (i.e., cut out a huge chunk of the directories it points to, and 
try Cygwin/X again). I doubt this is related, though.

Does anyone know if Cygwin and Cygwin/X have been tested under VMware?
