I recently upgraded Cygwin on my windows 2000 box, and am no longer able
to type in an xterm. I used to start X by running 'startx' from cygwin,
but I see now I need to use 'startxwin.bat' or 'startxwin.sh'. I have
found the same response regardless of which way I start it, no response
to keyboard input.
I am running unix services for windows on this box, and found the
mention of it interfering:
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#microsoft-services-for-unix
So I unset those four system variables, and there was no improvement.
What do I need to change next?
