Some X programs won't start up

Hello people,

I've recently installed cygwin-xfree and I'm loving it. Finally, my
beloved fvwm on my Windows PC at work!

Anyway, while some X apps start right up without trouble (fvwm, xcalc,
xterm...), others (xmgrace, for example) don't start at all. I type
"xmgrace" at the command prompt, and the prompt comes right back
without anything happening. "ps afx" shows nothing.

What's going on here?

Thanks,

robert
