Hi!

Since yesterday starting "XWin.exe -multiwindow -clipboard" starts,
but stops after short. It doesn't keep running and X11 is not usable.

After starting I only see:
Welcome to the XWin X Server
Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project
Release: 1.17.2.0
OS: CYGWIN_NT-6.1 nc403-muc 2.2.1(0.289/5/3) 2015-08-20 11:42 x86_64
OS: Windows 7 Service Pack 1 [Windows NT 6.1 build 7601] (Win64)
Package: version 1.17.2-3 built 2015-08-25

XWin was started with the following command line:

/usr/bin/XWin -multiwindow -clipboard

ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens
winInitializeScreenDefaults - primary monitor w 1920 h 1200
winInitializeScreenDefaults - native DPI x 96 y 96
[   134.862] (II) xorg.conf is not supported

The tray-icon is displayed, but vanishes as soon you try to hover it.
XWin.exe is terminated.

If I start XWin.exe without any options it opens a window and keeps
running. Same if I start it without "-multiwindow". Looks to me like
"-multiwindow" is broken. Any ideas?

Tried some other options:
- xwin -multiwindow -> starts, then terminates. No error message
- xwin -mwextwm -> starts, then terminates. Error: window-manage not found
- xwin -internalwm -> starts, then terminates. No error message
- xwin -rootless -internalwm -> starts. no keypresses accepted any
more until CTRL-ALT-BCKSPC terminates X11
- xwin -rootless -> starts, but no Window-Manager until I start one.
- xwin -> starts with Window, but no Windows-Manager until I start one.

Added that to every file one of the other exec where mentioned.
Doesn't help. X starts and stops immediately again:

I am not sure if startxwin is at all used by XWin.exe ...!

Do you know what version you updated from?

> [   137,093] glWinSelectGLimplementation: Loaded 'cygnativeGLthunk.dll'

This looks like the xserver is crashing whilst trying to initialize WGL.

You might try adding '-nowgl' to the XWin options.

You may find that updating your graphics driver, if possible, resolves this.

(Since this seems to happen with some graphics drivers, there is code in 
the X server which attempts to catch crashes in WGL initialization and 
turn WGL off, but that doesn't seem to be getting control in this case)

I had a similar problem.  Mine turned out to be that a lock file wasn't 
deleted.

I can't remember the name, (and I don't have a Windows computer nearby
to check) but it's something like /tmp/x0.lock.  Try "ls /tmp/*lock*" 
and delete
what you find.
