* The new default startxwinrc also launches a miniature fbpanel in the upper left corner of the screen which contains an XDG application menu (the 'X' icon) for launching X applications, plus an on-demand area for X tray icons.

This is not working well for me. I've tested on both 32-bit and 64-bit Cygwin with no .startxwinrc and no .[xX]* files, and I've tested on two different computers (both running Windows 7). I started the X server via the new start menu shortcut.
What happens is that a band appears across the bottom of the screen (full width), hiding about 2/3 of the taskbar. This makes it impossible to access the icons on the right side of the taskbar. Also, there's no X icon in the upper left corner of the screen. But there is a large X icon in the taskbar, partially visible above the band, and when I mouse over it, I see a little window that says "X panel". Closing this window makes the band go away. So I guess this band is the miniature fbpanel referred to above, but it's appearing in the wrong place.
I don't see anything suspicious in XWin.0.log, but .xsession-errors says, "fbpanel: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0.". But this only appears after I've exited the server, so maybe it's normal.
Finally, ~/.config/fbpanel/multiwindow exists but is empty. Ken -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
