So when I try startxwin, it prints a bunch of stuff and nothing
happens. The log is below. And yes, the swrast_dri.so is there; the
output of the cygcheck is below the X log output..

usually the log files are attached not pit in line

as usual for https://cygwin.com/problems.html
"Run cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out and include that file as an attachment in your report. Please do not compress or otherwise encode the output. Just attach it as a straight text file so that it can be easily viewed."


{ ~ }  Â startxwin
xauth: (stdin):2:  unknown command "01c8a525b1e7d7cde2587e307895bfa2"
xauth: (stdin):3:  unknown command "01c8a525b1e7d7cde2587e307895bfa2"
xauth: (stdin):4:  unknown command "01c8a525b1e7d7cde2587e307895bfa2"
xauth: (stdin):5:  unknown command "01c8a525b1e7d7cde2587e307895bfa2"


this is strange. But it happens also on my X and it works
so I presume is not the root cause.


Welcome to the XWin X Server
Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project
Release: 1.18.1.0
OS: CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW NX10098 2.4.0(0.293/5/3) 2016-01-15 16:14 i686
OS: Windows 7 Service Pack 1 [Windows NT 6.1 build 7601] (WoW64)
Package: version 1.18.1-1 built 2016-02-18

XWin was started with the following command line:

/usr/bin/XWin :0 -multiwindow -auth
  /home/rhaskins/.serverauth.6900



Assuming that the GL driver is unable to manage correctly
your driver, you can try to disable the hardware acceleration

startxwin -- -nowgl -multiwindow

After that I am afraid you need to wait Jon's support.

Marco
