Hey, I'm sure you've all see this one posted on here before, but something has to be different because none of the solutions that I have found worked for me.
I've checked mount points ensuring directories existed. I've re-installed font packages. I tried re-running the postinstall scripts. Yes, I have looked through the FAQ. I've also verfied that the font.alias file in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc contained a 'fixed' alias. I took that and mapped it back to the actual .pcf.gz file an ensured it existed. As far as I can tell, everything looks perfectly normal. Except it won't start. Here is the XWin.log: ------------------------------ (WW) /tmp mounted int textmode _XSERVTransmkdir: ERROR: euid != 0,directory /tmp/.X11-unix will not be created.

From fonts.dir (I wasn't sure how to grep for
-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1, but trust me it's there) 6x13-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc $ ls 6x13-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz 6x13-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz I checked the cygwin setup.exe to see what version of X I had installed. Is there any issues with this particular version? I have 6.8.99.901-1 for all the X packages. Well the ones that I have installed. If anyone can help, it'd be much appreciated.
