Subject: RE: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xorg-server-1.11.1-1 (TEST)
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2011 19:41:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <56DA7F7920069F4E8EBAE99EC8E0C742040FD6DE@ORO-EXMB1.oro.doe.gov> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4E96E72D.80707@dronecode.org.uk>

Updated today and X is broken on XP.  Starting a window with the cygwin.bat file then executing /bin/startxwin.exe
$ !492
/bin/startxwin.exe

/bin/startxwin: giving up
/bin/startxwin: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused
/bin/startxwin: server error

I had one message about not finding .Xauthority which now exists but is an empty file.  Running from the shortcut in "Start Menu\Programs\Cygwin-X" 

H:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c /usr/bin/startxwin.exe

Temporarily has an icon in the tray that then vanishes.
