I am getting the following text in XWin.log:

(WW) /tmp mounted int textmode
  _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root
(II) XF86Config is not supported
  (II) See x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html for more information

I have tried the remedy noted at
x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof  to no avail.
In fact the umount command noted returns no mount found. I have tried
reinstalling X, completely uninstalling cygwin and reinstalling it, to
no avail. Googling the problem only points me to the FAQ over and over
again. Any ideas on some other things I could try?

Thanks,
Craig Smith
