I recently upgraded Cygwin on my windows 2000 box, and am no longer able 
to type in an xterm.  I used to start X by running 'startx' from cygwin, 
but I see now I need to use 'startxwin.bat' or 'startxwin.sh'.  I have 
found the same response regardless of which way I start it, no response 
to keyboard input.

I am running unix services for windows on this box, and found the 
mention of it interfering:
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#microsoft-services-for-unix

So I unset those four system variables, and there was no improvement. 

What do I need to change next?
