I'm on XP and was starting with startxwin.bat with the following; start /B XWin run openbox run xsetroot -solid aquamarine4
after doing an update today this gives an 'Run.exe' window saying it couldn't find 'openbox' which is in the same directory (/usr/X11R6/bin/) as the XWin binary. However if I start the shell first then run startxwin.sh with; XWin & openbox & xsetroot -solid aquamarine4 it starts as before. The XWin.log output looks the same for both (mainly just warnings); --------------- Welcome to the XWin X Server Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 6.8.1.0-1 Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _XSERVTransmkdir: ERROR: euid != 0,directory /tmp/.X11-unix will not be created.

I tried the suggestion from another post; C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\run.exe XWin.exe -query ... -nodecoration But that failed to find cygwin1.dll till I put it into the same directory as XWin.exe. Now it does nothing at all, not even a log output. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Sterling Baker
