I can start X in fullscreen without problems using the same options. Are you sure that removing -fullscreen allows the X server to start properly? This kind of failure (invoking xkbcomp) is usually caused by BLODA or rebase problems preventing xkbcomp from being spawned. It would be unusual for that to only occur with certain options, but I guess it is possible. -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
