An email list can't have a reply button, because an email itself has no reply 
button. I assume you  are reading a list archive with your Webbrowser. If that 
is true, subscribe to the mailing list and answer with your favorite email 
client.

No.

There is no error visible in this log. What makes you sure that the X Server 
hasn't started?

Did you start the ssh daemon on your "super computer"?

How did you start them? And did you set DISPLAY?

Remove everything and make sure you reinstall with Default Text File Type set 
to Unix.

X forward problem

[liang]

HI, all:

Sorry to bother your guys. I am trying to set up  a sshd server on a super
computer running on XP and set up putty on my laptop under XP too.
I want my laptop to run under X window, but I really have a trouble. I
searched several days on google, mailing list, FAQ, user guide

1. How can I reply email on this list? I didn't see any reply button. I
cannot start a new thread every time.
2. If do I need to install x server (xorg-x11-base) on both server and
laptop?
3. I can not start X server on my laptop and super computer. The following
is xwin.log

(II) XF86Config is not supported

Thanks in advance! I struggle to fight this problem for a long time. Please
help me.
