guys: please let me know if this is the off-topic for cygwin list.
originally right after I installed cygwin, I had impression (I could remember wrong)
I ever be able to start x server and run the rxvt. today I just couldn't get it work. I tried from windows "start"->"all program"->... nothing happen. and from CLI: [ping@ping-new-laptop ~]$ startxwin.exe startxwin: unable to run server "X": No such file or directory Use the -- option, or make sure that /usr/bin is in your path and that "X" is a program or a link to the right type of server for your display. Possible server names include: XWin X Server for the Cygwin environment on Microsoft Windows startxwin: giving up startxwin: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused startxwin: server error the only thing I did could be that I just installed cygwinport, but I don't think that will cause any issues to my cygwin, cygwin/X apps... please advice how to troubleshoot this kind of issue. thanks. regards ping -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
