Hi all,
I apologize if this bug is already known.
I have two fresh windows 8 machines. Looks like cygwin/x doesn't work
on either of them with similar symptoms.
The installation went fine. "xwin" command seems to work as expected.
But when I try to right click on X icon in tray -> Applications ->
xterm (or emacs/xload) - nothing happens. In the terminal I'm getting:
0 [main] xwin 1880 child_info_fork::abort: C:\cygwin\bin\cygXdmcp-6.dll:
Loaded to different address: parent(0x340000) != child(0x2C0000)
fork() to run command failed
See http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.using.fixing-fork-failures .
I attach my cygcheck and xwin log files.
Your cygcheck output shows that you don't have emacs installed, so you
won't be able to start it from the X icon. But that's not related to
your fork failure.
