This sounds like it has nothing to do with startxwin. I can't reproduce
this, but do any of the following help:

1) creating a ~/.startxwinrc containing just "xterm &"?

Same problem.  No xterm.

2) changing that .startxwinrc to "run xterm"?

Pop-up:  "Couldn't find xterm anywhere.  I even looked in the PATH"

Same when I tried "run /usr/bin/xterm" (couldn't find /usr/bin/xterm anywhere etc.)

3) setting LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1 ?

No change.

4) installing the font-daewoo-misc, font-isas-misc, and font-jis-misc
packages?

Those fonts are already installed.

As I said, I have a desktop icon for starting an XTERM that works. It only "doesn't work" when trying to start the xterm from ~/.startxwinrc, or from the system tray.
