Dear Cygwin community,
Is it possible to launch Ubuntu on Windows X11 clients agianst the
Cygwin X11 server?
A first shot was not a success:
franz@FEHRINGER:~$ sudo xdpyinfo -display :0
xdpyinfo: unable to open display ":0".
but on the other hand there are already success stories for U on W
against Xming.
I issued xhost + on the Cygwin side and my account is an Administrator one.
Any hints about this?
Thanks and best regards
Franz

Thanks much better now.
Do you have an additional hint about
(gvim:359): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon:
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application
did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply,
the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
?
I installed and started (on Cygwin) dbus as a service.

The cause is presumable the same. D-Bus listens on unix domain socket by
default.
P.S.
This list is in "no top posting please, thank you" mode.

I think this is not cygwin related, i have to find some U on W
discussion group.

You are right, this improves things again. With KDE applications it is
still bumpy (barely usable) but no crash anymore. Gnome applications
seem to work reasonably well.

Others will know better, but :0 may be trying Unix domain sockets, and
I would not be surprised if UoW and Cygwin do those differently. Maybe
you should try a TCP/IP connection to the server, e.g., 127.0.0.1:0 or
127.0.0.1:0.0 ?
