Hi,
I am trying to connect to my Linux machine from home. I can start the X
window, then I do X -query myipaddress, but all I get is a grey screen
with a "X" shaped cursor, I am VPNing to work, and runnig on XP. I have
looked for a solution all over the net to no avail, in fact the info
provided on cygwin's FAQs does not make any difference, I am referring
to http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html section 8.4 that
is {Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed'}. I guess
this could be a setup issue, but I just can not get the login screen,
could anyone please provide some input here is my XWin.log file, thanks.
