Hello,
I installed cygwin-x on Windows XP Professional, and it works perfectly on my (administrator) account.
Nevertheless, when any user WITHOUT administrator rights runs the script startxwin.bat, a fatal error occurs, and the XWin.log looks like this:
Welcome to the XWin X Server Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 6.8.1.0-9
Contact: [email protected]
XWin was started with the following command line:
/usr/X11R6/bin/XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error
ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens winInitializeDefaultScreens - w 1280 h 1024 winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root _XSERVTransSocketUNIXCreateListener: ...SocketCreateListener() failed _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: server already running
Fatal server error: Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running winDeinitMultiWindowWM - Noting shutdown in progress
The same happens when running the .sh script from the cygwin bash shell.
Can anyone give a hint, how to run the X-Server from the guest account? Or at least from a normal user account?
Thanx!!
