CYGWIN_NT-5.1 jjr 1.7.0(0.214/5/3) 2009-10-03 14:33 i686 Cygwin

I can start X-windows but can't start an xterm by right-clicking on the 
X icon in my system tray.  I get the window but it hangs (empty).   I 
have moved my .cshrc file out of the way.  My default shell is tcsh. 
I've also rebooted.

This problem only started after upgrading from -61 to -62 of cygwin.

 From a DOS command prompt, I can "xterm -display localhost:0" and that 
works.

Any ideas?

- Jim
