Please run the ipc-daemon from the cygipc package, which you should install with
kde2.
the x11 release on http://cygwin.kde.org supports shared memory for pixmap
caching. It is based on the cygipc package, which could also downloadeded from
http://kde-cygwin.sourceforge.net/kde2/download.php. If you haven't installed
cygipc or are not running the ipc-daemon (which is original started in the
startkde script), it might be that the above described problems ocurres. You are
not fixed using this x release, you might use any official x11/cygwin release.
