Right or wrong, I now have Cygwin installed; startx works and loads
up a rather primitive looking window manager (twm?). I tried init 5
but I get:
bash: init: command not found.
Perhaps I'm missing some libraries from cygwin? FWIW, the account in
cygwin is my username and machine name in Windows. I can't SU and
logout kills the session, so if "root" is applicable here I don't
know how to get there.
