Hi group,
When I installed Cygwin this afternoon, I was looking for xorg-x11-base under
the X11 subtree, and I didn't find it there anymore. I installed everything
that was under X11 anyway, and was unable to locate startXwin under
c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin.

I am having the same issue. I just updated Cygwin today. XWin has always

After upgrading to X11R7.4 I had the same problems with the italian
layout of keyboard. After doing some "strace-ing" on the X server and
searching in the mailing list I solve my problems doing a rebaseall (see
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2008-11/msg00019.html).
Hope this helps.
Ciao,

As a workaround, you should be able to add "-nolock" to the command line used
to start Xwin (in startxwin.bat, I'm guessing, in your case).
Since a few people seem to have this problem, I'd like to get a resolution.
