I'm running my Xcygwin on Windows XP. I have an xterm open
automatically when I start the machine. The problem is when I'm
shutting the machine down. It's giving me the window of "end program
now". I think it's waiting for XWin to die. I can see a message about
it in the title bar of the "End Now" dialog box. When I look at the
task manager I can see XWin.exe running. The question is how to cause
this program to die when I order the
machine to shutdown.
Stop XWin.exe? =-O
Just out of curiosity, why are you running a heavy process like X just
to run an xterm? Why not instead use something like Cygwin's rxvt (not
normally installed by default) which is a lot like xterm but does not
require a heavy X server to run?

I don't have a solution but I admire the problem.
