Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xorg-server-1.10.2-1
Previously I had tried rebaseall and rebaseall with an alterante address but it still did not start. This appears to be intermittent, after a few more attempts X is now up and running.

Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xorg-server-1.10.2-1
After installing service pack 1 to System 7 I got the "Failed to activate core devices." so I updated to xorg-server-1.10.2-1. I no longer am getting the Xwin modal error window, but Xwin is still not starting. -Stephen More On Tue, Jun 28, 2011 at 9:48 AM, Jon TURNEY wrote: > The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution: > > *** xorg-server-1.10.2-1 > *** xorg-server-dmx-1.10.2-1 > > These packages contain XWin and the other X.Org X11 servers. > > In addition to upstream fixes [1], the following cygwin-specific changes > have been made since 1.10.1-1: > > * Use system() rather than pipe() & fork() to invoke xkbcomp.
