I have deleted my previous installation of Cygwin, and reinstalled all the required CygwinX packages, along with 
openssh, pico and svn.

When I use the startx script, it seems to startup fine, but at the end I get this error: 

The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:

Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server

Also, seemingly totally random, Xterm may or may not start up and work. But I can't make any other programs 
connect to the X server, nor can I use remote X11 forwarding to this PC.
