problem with Release: 6.8.1.0-1


Dear Developers,

had previous version of X running nicely under Cygwin, but with recent update something went amiss.
(details Win XP professional, Japanese language version)
Below is the message that I get with starting xwindows...

after having issued the "startx" command, I get from the "ps" command:

     PID    PPID    PGID     WINPID  TTY  UID    STIME COMMAND
    2428       1    2428       2428  con 1007 19:55:30 /usr/bin/bash

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\end of output\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

which shows Xwindows is running in the background but I do not get an actual xterm.

interesting detail.....
when is type command "man startx" I see, before the manpage appears, and after quitting the manpage the following


Unrecognized line in config file (ignored)
JNROFF LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 /usr/bin/groff -Tnippon -mandocj
Unrecognized line in config file (ignored)
KNROFF /usr/bin/groff -Tkorean -mandoc
Unrecognized line in config file (ignored)
JNEQN /usr/bin/eqn -Tnippon
Unrecognized line in config file (ignored)
KNEQN /usr/bin/eqn -Tkorean
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\end of output\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
I have no desire to use Xwindows in any other language than English..............


all suggestions for remedies very welcome!
Thanks for your time and consideration,

Marcel
