Please read and follow the problem reporting guidelines found here:

Also take a look at the FAQ for Cygwin-X and the recent archives.
Many of the common problems have been hashed out there already
and some good information is available to help you solve problems
like this.  If you're still not finding any joy, then make sure
to provide a full problem report to the Cygwin-X list so that we
know what you did and how your machine is configured.  Remember,
any files that you send should be *attached* and not appended to
any follow-up email.
