I keep getting this error:
sjain@dksjdksj~
$ startx
xauth: creating new authority file /cygdrive/c/Documents and
Settings/samitj/.se
rverauth.8172
giving up.
xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.
NOw if I start using this command:
X :0 -multiwindow -clipboard
I get the multiple windows.
I dont get the copy paste between windows and unix applications. How do I
enable this?
Also, how do I disable the menu at the top of the xterm?
Why is it crashing so often now?
Has anyone tried Exceed is it more stable than this? I wish I never tried to
upgrade to current version. I lost everything now..
