X is started as follows on both Windows 10 and Windows 7 boxes. /usr/bin/X -multiwindow -listen tcp I keep Cygwin up-to-date regularly, also my Linux virtual machines and the windows hosts. In the last few weeks I am getting new, annoying behavior. Essentially, my X clients, e.g. xterm are no longer visible. A "ps" on the linux VM shows that they are still running. This happens with emacs too, and emacsclient calls also do not open windows on the display. Is it a change to Cygwin or a change to a Fedora 27 package? Is there a fix?
