Cygwin xterm not responding to keyboard

My cygwin xterm is not responding to the keyboard.

I can start rxvt, but when I start other X applications, I have the same problem.

From the rxvt command line, I get this:

$ xterm
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :0

Content of my XWin.0.log:

$ cat XWin.0.log 
Welcome to the XWin X Server
Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project
Release: 1.5.3.0 (10503000)

Contact: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com

XWin was started with the following command line:

/usr/bin/XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error 

ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens
winInitializeDefaultScreens - w 1440 h 900
winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning

Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
        If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
        and start again.

Removing / tmp / .X0 -lock didn't help.

See this .



  • First stop the server by right-clicking the X in the taskbar and choosing exit.

  • Run the startxwin.bat file located in the / usr / bin directory.

Something in the back of my mind says "turn off Num Lock".



I'm not sure why.
