Re: xterm Xt error: Can't open display
Many thanks for your help, it was very useful and much appreciated. I made a .xinitrc in my home directory and this did not work. However when I turned off my internet security software (norton internet security), cygwin worked fine. upon further examination i found out that norton was blocking Xwin and all cygwin programs. Now everything works fine apart from the fact i still see this message whenever i start xwin startxwin.bat - Starting on Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 6 [main] run 1852 tty_list::allocate: No tty allocated 9 [main] run 4020 tty_list::allocate: No tty allocated thanks once again claire Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

I think in your old installation you had changed the startup or your user's .xinitrc; this last one is usually the one that opens the xterm. If you don't have a ~/.xinitrc then it is a global script opening the xterm, that should be /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc. If that is the case you can copy that one to your .xinitrc and make changes there. For instance you can edit the last line (commented below) and instead start xterm with your favorite options: #exec xterm -e /usr/bin/bash -l exec xterm -sb -sl 1024 -rv -geometry 80x25+0+0 -name login or even better, something like: rxvt -rv -display localhost:0.0 -sl 1024 -e bash -li (those are simple examples, you can do much more with other parameters). > cat /tmp/XWin.log _XSERVTransmkdir: ERROR: euid != 0,directory > /tmp/.X11-unix will not be created.

xterm Xt error: Can't open display
Hi there i have installed the latest version of cygwin after removing my older version as i wanted to run the latest version. all i want to do is emulate linux on my windows machine. i start cygwin from the start menu, and then: try to run xterm.exe from the resulting cygwin window but this always fail with xterm Xt error: Can't open display. i have tried setting my display to localhost:0, 1.27.0.0.1:0 and many other things none seem to work. try to run startxwin.bat i get the following error startxwin.bat - Starting on Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 11363 [main] run 5336 tty_list::allocate: No tty allocated 8 [main] run 4388 tty_list::allocate: No tty allocated (the contents of Xwin.log are listed below) however if i run startx, i do get an xterm but it lacks alot of funcitonality. i have tried going back to my original install, this no longer works either. i have spent all day trying to work out how to fix this (googling, mail list archive searches etc) and have failed so any help you could supply would be very much appreciated!

Re: xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
Thank you Igor, It was the sshd-config that was the problem. I've now got gnome-session starting. Also sorry bout the addresses. I didn't realize that my client was misbehaving that badly. Unfortunatly I don't see any way of turning it off. Time to change to a new client I suppose. (sigh). suggestions?
Re: xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
Chris, Did you read the last part of the article at the link Alexander posted? The one about server configuration? You mentioned upgrading Linux, and I'm not sure the default sshd_config comes with X11Forwarding enabled. Igor P.S.

Yes I've tried all combinitions of these. We have a proprietary version of xdisplay (winpro) which works... Also, as I said, it used to work until I upgraded in November or so.

Re: xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
Could it be related to mixing (as you showed in your post) DISPLAY= and Export DISPLAY ??? The example shows: $ DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 $ export DISPLAY $ ssh -X remotehost or $ DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 ssh -X remotehost which is different from your original post. May you tried all the combinations already? Jay cryst said the following on 12/09/2003 01:06 PM: Thanks, but I've been there and it didn't help. (Hence this list). Any idea on how to diagnose this?

xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
This used to work until about a month or two ago, when I upgraded my ssh. I'm trying to open an xwindow showing my linux box's client. >From my XP computer I do the following (using a script) export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 PATH=/usr/X11R6/bin:$PATH eval `ssh-agent` rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix XWin -screen 0 1024 768 & ssh -X -l chris gecko This starts an X server just fine, and starts an ssh session with a (gentoo) linux box (named gecko). so far so good. This is what comes at the ssh session: [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding. Last login: Tue Dec 9 12:29:56 2003 from 192.168.1.23 [EMAIL PROTECTED] chris $ xterm xterm Xt error: Can't open display: [EMAIL PROTECTED] chris $ So I log in fine, it gives me a warning (which from other posts I've read seems to be not important) but is not able to open the display. I try exporting my display to 192.168.1.23:0.0 and 192.168.1.23:0.1 and it returns : [EMAIL PROTECTED] chris $ Xlib: connection to "192.168.1.23:0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified xterm Xt error: Can't open display: 192.168.1.23:0.0 and the like. This used to work. Does anyone have any idea what is going wrong?

Re: xterm Xt error: Can't open display
1. is X running? 2. which user is X running as? 3. what machine does it think it's running on? (ie, does it know that 127.0.0.1 is your machine? ) i've seen windows installs without 127.0.0.1 before. 4. if the above seem to be working, try "xhost + 5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI" which will allow anyone on that machine to run programs. theoretically :) "Alex Vinokur" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: cc: cygwin-xfree-owner@ Subject: xterm Xt error: Can't open display cygwin.com 10/03/2002 09:55 AM Please respond to cygwin-xfree = Windows 2000 Professional CYGWIN_NT-5.0 Cygwin/XFree86 4.2.0 = Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI / $ which xterm /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm ## Attempt-1 ## Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI ~ $ set | grep DISPLAY Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI / $ xterm xterm Xt error: Can't open display: ## Attempt-2 ## Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX $ set | grep DISPLAY DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI ~ $ xterm xterm Xt error: Can't open display: 127.0.0.1:0.0 What is wrong ? == Alex Vinokur mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://up.to/alexvn ==
Re: xterm Xt error: Can't open display
Obvious question : did you launch XFree (e.g launch 'startx' in cygwin or by startxwin.bat from windows)? --- Alex Vinokur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a écrit : > = > Windows 2000 Professional > CYGWIN_NT-5.0 > Cygwin/XFree86 4.2.0 > = > > > Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI / > $ which xterm > /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm > > > ## Attempt-1 ## > > Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI ~ > $ set | grep DISPLAY > > Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI / > $ xterm > xterm Xt error: Can't open display: > > > ## Attempt-2 ## > > Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX > $ set | grep DISPLAY > DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 > > Administrator@5AT8S8CQEEX4QHI ~ > $ xterm > xterm Xt error: Can't open display: 127.0.0.1:0.0 > > > What is wrong ? > >== >Alex Vinokur > mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://up.to/alexvn >== > > > > > > > ___ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français !
