1.7.7 Cygwin/X: cannot start X from Menu link

- Subject: 1.7.7 Cygwin/X: cannot start X from Menu link
I installed Cygwin/X and right after installation I was able to click on
the menu link and start X.
Then I clicked on the Hide Root Window option on the X icon menu and the
screen went blank so I had to reboot.
Now I can no longer start X from the menu link.
I can start X from a bash shell just by calling XWin which then covers
the screen with a black window that I have to minimize.
When I try starting using the menu link, I see no errors, just nothing
happens.
How do I get things back to normal?
Regards,
Gerry
