This error heppend when xwin is installed askew. For installation use only XInstall.sh, don't try untar xwin files manually or (I'm not sure about right name lucid-12) you can correct -fn fixed to -fn lucid-12 in each config files of installed xwin regards, Andrey > -----Original Message----- > From: Marcelo Varanda [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, October 22, 2001 6:55 PM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: cygwin - xwin (under WIN2000) > > > > I am getting the following error msg when starting xwin: > > Administrator@MVARANDA-W2K /usr/x11r6/bin > $ xwin > _XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root > winDetectSupportedEngines () - Windows NT/2000 > winDetectSupportedEngines () - DirectDraw installed > winDetectSupportedEngines () - Allowing PrimaryDD > winDetectSupportedEngines () - DirectDraw4 installed > winDetectSupportedEngines () - Returning, supported engines 0000001f > winSetEngine () - Using Shadow DirectDraw NonLocking > winAdjustVideoModeShadowDDNL () - Using Windows display depth > of 32 bits per > pix > el > winCreateBoundingWindowWindowed () - WindowClient w 1274 h > 970 r 1274 l 0 b > 970 > t 0 > winAllocateFBShadowDDNL () - lPitch: 5096 > winInitVisualsShadowDDNL () - Masks 00ff0000 0000ff00 > 000000ff BPRGB 8 d 32 > winCreateDefColormap () - Deferring to fbCreateDefColormap () > > Fatal server error: > could not open default font 'fixed' > > Administrator@MVARANDA-W2K /usr/x11r6/bin > $ > -------------------------------------------------------------- > -------------- > -------------------------------- > I have tried different thing setting a path to "font" subdir > but nothing > worked out. > Thanks, > Marcelo > > > -- > Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple > Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html > Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html > FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ > -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
