NET HELPMSG 53 Returns: The network path was not found.

This means you're missing a required DLL.  Run 'cygcheck xterm' to find out
what's missing and then 'cygcheck -f full path to DLL' to find out what
package you need to install to fulfill this requirement.  Then re-run
'setup.exe' and install that package.

Problem with installing the X environment

2007-12-25 Thread David Garber
Deal all,
 
After installing the cygwin several times, when I tryy to open the X by xinit, 
I got again and again this error:
 Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/*/, removing from 
list!
and the X window is closed. 
 
Although in the FAQ it says that in case it happens and the X is closed 
immediately, I have to do some umount. But when I do that, it says: no such 
file or directory.
 
When I run it with xwin, I got the window, but if I try to run xterm  or 
anything else, I got exit 53 immediately afterwards.
 
Can someone of you help me to activate the X?
 
BTW, my computer is notebook Dell Latitude D430.
 
Thank you very much, 
David Garber.

what happens, if you create this directory?

Just post your XWin.bat.
