Problem with new xinit - console window doesn't open (but bash starts)


I'm running the latest of everything Cygwin 1.7 (see below).

When I start the Xwin server from the Windows shortcut:

D:\Cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/startxwin.bat

I see a bash.exe process running, but no X window comes up, as per:

REM Make sure XWin is ready to accept connections before proceeding
%RUN% checkX -wait -d %DISPLAY% -t 12

REM Startup an xterm, using bash as the shell.
%RUN% xterm -e /usr/bin/bash -l

Anyone else notice this?

The problem is the same on my laptop at work running WinXP, as well as my home system running Windows 7
