Try writing a short startup script something like the following, and use this instead of using dx script. for example cd /usr/local/dx/bin touch dx.src vi dx.src export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 export PATH=.:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/dx/bin/:$PATH csh /usr/local/dx/bin/dxworkers Save it then chmod 755 dx.src and try executing it to start DX. See what happen let me know. I remeber dx (default script) used to give errors with Cygwin B20.1 therefore I was providing a short startup script dx.src. > > > > > > I copied the required dll (cygwin1 and libpng) into /usr/local/bin and > > > retried. > > > I then got > > > _X11TransSocketOpen: socket() failed for local > > > _X11TransSocketOpenCOTSClient: Unable to open socket for local > > > _X11TransOpen: transport open failed for local/unix:0 > > > Error: Can't open display: unix:0 > > > > Which X-server?

It seems to be having problems with socket binding. I am not sure what is going on your machine or Cygwin Environment. I just tested OpenDX 4.1.1 for Cygwin with Cygwin 1.1.4 and Exceed 6.2, and also my XFree86 server. It comes up just fine. I used the default dx script. I opened a bash shell, then did the following cd /usr/local/dx/bin export DISPLAy=127.0.0.1:0.0 sh dx The startupui came up without any errors. Then I QUIT startupui and typed sh dx -uionly& The Editor came up without any problems or errors. Looks like you have problems with your Cygwin installation or somethihg else wrong with your Cygwin and/or DX setup.
