Two options: 1. Use the "--depth" parameter of Xwin (see the comments inside /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.sh, it only works with --fullscreen). 2. Don't use XWindows use VNC. -- René Berber -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
