You are correct. It should break-up on Win9x. It had been discussed
in mail archives and mentioned in FAQ.

Suhaib, we're one step forward now.
XWin starts correctly, however, then breaks up with this:
Direct Draw Init Failed
Error = 88760078 (unknown error)
Quits.
-
Hmmm this could be caused by DIRECTX 8 recently installed on my system.
Maybe I should downgrade to DX 7.0a and test if it works there.
It should, shouldn't it?
Other option would be to install John's DX cygwin port.
Hope that'll change things a little.
