Re: X server fails to start on Vista


It worked with /usr/bin/XWin :1

The "X" icon appeared and the "xterm" application worked as expected.

"netstat -p" showed nothing before or after XWin started. It also showed
nothing with a live SSH connection started from my Cygwin bash shell.

After starting XWin with "XWin :1" the process appeared as expected in the
Windows task manager.
