Problems starting X and a solution to be appended to the FAQ


I was going crazy with the "fixed" font error... to later find out (somewhere) that it was caused by the DOS/Text mode (\r\n) in the instalation of cygwin.
With a textmode mounted root, it seems the fonts fail to load, and the diagnostic from X isn't very helpfull.


I'm a newbie with this, and it was hard enought to figure out. If you append it to the FAQ maybe someone else doesn't have to suffer from this.
