() from /cygdrive/c/windows/SysWOW64/ig7icd32.dll Thanks. This isn't as useful as it might be, but it shows that the crash is occurring somewhere in the OpenGL ICD for the Intel Graphics display driver. You might try using a different driver version to see if this fixes the problem. Or, you should be able to work around this problem by starting the X server with the -nowgl option, or possibly by using the GLWIN_NO_WGL_EXTENSIONS environment variable. Short of debugging into the crash, it's difficult to determine if this is a Cygwin X server bug, or one in the graphics driver. > On 6/11/2013 9:07 AM, Jon TURNEY wrote: >> On 11/06/2013 02:03, Karl K.
