Hello.

Since a bit, emacs won't start under X: no error, no message, nothing.
It just starts and exits after a while without doing anything.

I can run "emacs -nw" fine.

How can I diagnose this? Is there any log I can look into? Any utility?

   bye & Thanks
      av.


use strace.

Wouldn't "cygcheck /usr/bin/emacs" be a better first step?  It sounds like
it could be a missing DLL.

likely it is a missing/wrong DLL, but he mentioned that
"emacs -nw" is working, so should be not a static one and
cygcheck could miss the issue.
