I have been able to X without problem before cygwin update.

 From mintty window
*****************************************
$ xterm &
[1] 4740

$ xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: 127.0.0.1:0.0

What am I wrong for X?

Is the above related to the below?

Xorg server always starting up on DISPLAY 3.0

[1] seem more likely to be relevant

i.e. you should write DISPLAY=:0.0 rather than DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
