At work, I am running Win XP SP3. I installed all the latest Cygwin
(1.7.1) + Xorg updates, including startxwin.exe. Everything works
perfectly.
At home, I am running Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit. I am unable to

As I've said before, this works properly on my XP SP3 system at work,
but not on my Windows 7 64-bit system at home.
I run Win7 64bit as well

Since you mention it's your home computer that's having issues, I can
only guess this might be it. If you're not using keychain, then we'll
need to see your 'cygcheck -srv' output and your /var/log/XWin.0.log (as
plain-text attachments).

This sounds like it has nothing to do with startxwin. I can't reproduce
this, but do any of the following help:
1) creating a ~/.startxwinrc containing just xterm ?
Same problem. No xterm.
2) changing that .startxwinrc to run xterm?
Are you executing startxwin from a login shell? I use
\path\to\cygwin\bin\run.exe /bin/bash.exe -l -c /bin/startxwin.exe
and it works for me.

The symptom is that xterm.exe is shown running in the task manager,

The defaukt icon obviously comes from the icon resource in XWin.exe.
Such resources can have small icons 16x16 and large ones 32x32 and
both are actually present. Problem is that the icons on the title and
in the taskbar are scaled to 24x24 on my setup, so Windows must do
some internal scaling.

Harold,
On the other hand, the 24 x 24 icon I made looks like crap. I just
realized that my notebook uses 24 x 24 small icons because I am running
it with 120 dpi fonts. I should have looked at the icon on here first,
cause it really is obviously garbage. Then again, it looks like there

look pretty crappy.
I am running Windows XP, which supports many more icon flavors in the
notification tray... all the icons (including Mozilla's mail
notification icon) look fine in the tray. So, this doesn't seem to be
the root of the problem for the ugly X icon.

Are you sure that this is included? When I extract the icon from the

fact that the icon isn't mentioned as a dependency of XWin.res in the

Anyone know where I can get an MS-Windows icon file with the X icon? I

set the icon to something appropriate.
