RE: xfree problem



I am not sure what mistake are you maing.  Just to make sure
installation work, I download John's GGI, got pre-alpha to
get XGGI binary then following the instructions
in http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2000-q1/msg00056.html
to make copies of version 7 dlls yo version 6.
edited /usr/local/etc/libggi.conf
to add

dirctx 	display/directx.dll

then cd /usr/X11R6/bin and typed

./XGGI -targets directx &

The X-server came up without problems.

Did you install X11R6 in a directory other than /usr/X11R6?

Did you install GGI in a directory other than /usr/local?  If so
you must edit libggi.conf at the top

.root /usr/local/lib/ggi

for your correct path of liob/ggi directory otherwise
you would get libGGI init failure.
