new case for "XWin Server fails to start with keymap failure"
Hello, Since a recent massive update of Cygwin, I am not able to run startx (see beyond for complete output). I have already closely followed the FAQ 9.15 and 9.16. , with no success. I have, most notably, completely rebased Cygwin . I have also checked the similar previous case here : https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-06/msg00122.html, but the special version of strace.exe for diagnosis is no more available here : https://cygwin.com/faq.html#faq.using.bloda Regular strace provide this : $ strace -o log XWin 0 [main] strace (7872) C:\cygwin\bin\strace.exe: *** fatal error - cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x612FB400/0x26FB400. This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL. Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should* reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you are unable to find another cygwin DLL. Segmentation fault However, I have already checked cygwin1.dll, rebased everything and rebooted many time. startx still does not work. Any help appreciated. --- Benoit THIERRY (a french user) Original Xwin error : $ startx Welcome to the XWin X Server Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 1.17.4.0 OS: CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW Nostromo 2.3.1(0.291/5/3) 2015-11-14 12:42 i686 OS: Windows 7 Service Pack 1 [Windows NT 6.1 build 7601] (WoW64) Package: version 1.17.4-1 built 2015-10-29 XWin was started with the following command line: /usr/bin/X :0 -auth /home/Dallas/.serverauth.6332 (II) xorg.conf is not supported (II) See http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html for more information LoadPreferences: /home/Dallas/.XWinrc not found LoadPreferences: Loading /etc/X11/system.XWinrc LoadPreferences: Done parsing the configuration file... winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed, allowing ShadowDDNL winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 0005 winSetEngine - Using Shadow DirectDraw NonLocking winScreenInit - Using Windows display depth of 32 bits per pixel winWindowProc - WM_SIZE - new client area w: 1904 h: 1092 winFinishScreenInitFB - Masks: 00ff ff00 00ff MIT-SHM extension disabled due to lack of kernel support XFree86-Bigfont extension local-client optimization disabled due to lack of shared memory support in the kernel (EE) AIGLX: No native OpenGL in modes with a root window (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap (II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized swrast (II) GLX: Initialized DRISWRAST GL provider for screen 0 (EE) Error compiling keymap (server-0) (EE) xkbcomp exit status 0x7f00 (EE) XKB: Couldn't compile keymap (EE) XKB: Failed to load keymap.

RE: XWin Server fails to start with keymap failure, strace log attached.
This shows that the crash looks like it is in ntdll.dll, while we are doing some socket initialisation, but the interesting thing I note is LavasoftTcpService64.dll being loaded. Apparently this belongs to Lavasoft Web Companion. I'd suggest you try upgrading or uninstalling that. I am unable to successfully uninstalled Lavasoft Web Companion. A secondary program LavasoftTcpService64 is still installed and I can't get rid of it. I am going to reinstall Lavasoft Web Companion and try again to uninstall the two pieces. If that doesn't work I will have to reformat the disk and reinstall the OS which will have to be done over the weekend. John T.

Perhaps you won't have to do that.
You write you can't uninstall LavasoftTcpService64. The name suggests that it's
a service. If it isn't properly stopped and removed as such, you might be able
to can do so manually (from a Windows shell running as administrator) with
sc.exe stop LavasoftTcpService64
sc.exe delete LavasoftTcpService64
(if that's also its name as a service).
If you can't find LavasoftTcpService64 in Programs and Features in Windows,
you might be able to find and uninstall it from within PowerShell (also running
as administrator) with (this may take some time)
Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object { $_.name -match ^LavaSoft }
If this finds an IdentifyingNumber then you can specify it to the Windows
Installer to try uninstallation like this
msiexec.exe /uninstall {12345678-90AB-CDEF-1234-567890ABCDEF}

The cygcheck output looks correct. I assume you also checked that xkbcomp can be run? I am not sure what the input file should be see all I see is the error message Error: No input file specified. If you know what the path is I will run it and see if it works. That's fine, it just shows that xkbcomp does exist and can be run. If that doesn't help, perhaps you can run 'strace -o log XWin' and attach the resulting log file? Log file attached. This is what I see in the Cygwin64 terminal. Thanks.

I've uploaded a patched version which collects more information at [1], perhaps you download that, put it in /usr/bin and try that strace command again.
