I've installed cygwin-xfree and I seem to have something mis-configured.
If I run from startxwin.sh, everything runs fine, but if I try to use startx, the x window, white, opens up, changes to a cross-hatch pattern and eventually closes down. In the sh window I get the message: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections .. .. until it finally times out. For the record the same thing happens if I try and run just xinit my /tmp/XWin.log is: ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens winInitializeDefaultScreens - w 1024 h 768 winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root winDetectSupportedEngines - Windows NT/2000/XP winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw installed winDetectSupportedEngines - Allowing PrimaryDD winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 0000001f winSetEngine - Using Shadow DirectDraw NonLocking winAdjustVideoModeShadowDDNL - Using Windows display depth of 32 bits per pixel winAdjustForAutoHide - Original WorkArea: 0 0 768 1024 winAdjustForAutoHide - Taskbar is auto hide winAdjustForAutoHide - Found LEFT auto-hide taskbar winAdjustForAutoHide - Adjusted WorkArea: 0 1 768 1024 winCreateBoundingWindowWindowed - WindowClient w 1017 h 745 r 1017 l 0 b 745 t 0 winCreateBoundingWindowWindowed - Returning winAllocateFBShadowDDNL - lPitch: 4068 winFinishScreenInitFB - Masks: 00ff0000 0000ff00 000000ff winInitVisualsShadowDDNL - Masks 00ff0000 0000ff00 winWindowProc - WM_*KEYDOWN - Closekey hit, quitting eferring to fbCreateDefColormap () winScreenInit - returning I couldn't find anything about this in the mail-list archive. Does someone see anything I don't. Thanks Jim Ballantine
