Hello,
I guess it happened after some MS update but I can't start X anymore (from an
rxvt-native console since clicking the desktop icon doesn't display anything):

4 [main] X 15760 fork: child 19360 - died waiting for dll loading, errno
11
startxwin: giving up
startxwin: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused
startxwin: server error
The culprit seems the line saying "died waiting for dll loading, errno 11".
Knowing which dll didn't load could help, I guess...
What's annoying is the fact that this used to work really fine up until about 1
week ago...
Thanks!
Denis
