I guess you need to either create that directory so it can write to it
Done that - but now I'm getting a bit paranoid... it fixed the original
problem but now when I try to launch XWin I get a message box saying
"Windows Firewall has blocked this program from accepting connections from
the internet or network. If you trust the publisher you can unblock it."
Hmmm... do I / should I unblock it?? Unblocking it temporarily lets me run
You'll have to make your own mind up about whether or not you trust the
publisher of that program or not :-)
For what it's worth, the X server needs to be able to accept connections from
client programs to work, and the firewall correctly considers this XWin to be
a different program to the one in /usr/bin/, which you have probably permitted
to accept connections at some time in the past...
XWin - apparently fine, although I see a couple of errors in the log file:-
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so failed (No such file
or directory)
(EE) GLX: could not load software renderer
Are these anything to be worried about?
OpenGL X applications won't work. I don't know if that concerns you or not :-)
Given your earlier problems with glproto, I suspect you don't have libGL
installed properly...
$ cygcheck -f /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so
libGL1-7.2-2
BTW Jon - flickering seems to be vastly improved!! Thanks for all your
help.

Thanks for being the guinea pig. I'll update the CG document to hopefully
clarify the things which caused you problems.
