That's fine and good.

None of this has anything to do with X so I wouldn't expect any
change here either.

The current version is 1.5.13-1 so there's not allot of leeway
here.  And are you suggesting that it doesn't work now for you?
The logs you sent in a previous message indicate it is working
fine for you.

I'm note sure why you're sending this cygcheck and what you're still 
having problems with. But assuming you are having some problems, I'll point
out some discrepancies I see that may have an affect on them:

What's in here?  Anything that could interfere or conflict??

         ^^^^^^^^^^^
This is certainly not right.  Get rid of it.

         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

So you want to be sure that you're always getting the Cygwin version of all
the tools you're running.  Make sure the Cygwin version is first in the list
when you type 'type -a  <foo>'

Make sure your user is in your /etc/passwd file at the very least.  If it
isn't, see 'man mkpasswd' and 'man mkgroup'.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you don't need this set for some reason, don't.

There's no reason to have /usr/bin and /usr/lib in textmode.  Personally,
I recommend against it for / and /cygdrive too.  Remove the '\/' from the 
/usr/bin and /usr/lib mounts.

Since you mentioned it, it seems to me that the existence of these 
deprecated packages on your system for X is only going to cause you
problems.  They should have been removed with any recent update 
you did.  Since you definitely have Xorg packages installed, I 
cannot explain this conflict.  Rerun setup and uninstall these 
packages if an update doesn't do it for you automatically.
