I've never done this, so I don't have much info for you.  But the one
thing I can think of, is you might want to make sure you are using
cygwin/X, not just cygwin.  cygwin is just a port of the standard *nix
console commands (ls, cp, cat, dd, etc.), whereas cygwin/X adds a port
of the X Window System, including an X Server.  For more info see
<http://x.cygwin.com/>.

Also note there a probably several other M$ Windows X Servers out there,
but I personally have never used any, so I can't recommend one over any
other.

Good luck,
Conway S. Smith
