Needless to say most of the issues I was having were resolved through trial and error. I've found the best way to start xfce is to start the X server and add startxfce4 to my system.Xwinrc file and launch it from the X-applications menu. Most everything works. And the compositor works great! What a cool feature for someone who's never experienced transparency. Remaining issues include apps launched from the menus not workin (i..e Log out, About Xfce, "Settings Manager"--yet this works from a local xterm window with xfce4-settings-manager.exe) I did see on the xfce site that it mentions there's a fix in 4.6 BETA for bug fix 4559 re xfconf and cygwin but these appear unrelated. Any suggestions would be appreciated. What about a browser? Is there a pending cygport of Midori coming.
