Re: cygwin-x xterm not compatible with windows 7?

[<wgweis at sbcglobal dot net>]

I turned off UAC, or so I am told.

The server seems to start up OK.  But xterm cannot access the shared memory? 
I ran this from the Cygwin.bat and got this stack dump.


     Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION at eip=3D73693A^M
