Hi,
I run cygwin X with the supplied startxwin.bat. That
is the Xwin command is:
run XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error
But I found that it doesn't really matter, how I
launch XWin. In single window mode the problem also
occurs.
I ran cygcheck xterm.exe and also cygcheck rxvt.exe.
Neither reports any errors. All references are to
DLLs, for rxvt the output looks like so:
# cygcheck rxvt.exe
Found: C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe
C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe
C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll
and just for reference the error I receive is:
~# rxvt
_X11TransOpen: Unable to find transport for tcp
rxvt: can't open display 127.0.0.1:0.0
Thanks for your help so far. Juergen
