I am able to launch the startxwin command after editing the batch file to be
the following
@echo off
SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
SET PATH=%PATH%;\usr\bin\X11;c:\cygwin\bin
start XWin -screen 0 1024x768x16 -whitepixel 255 -blackpixel 0
start xterm -sl 1000 -sb -rightbar -ms red -fg yellow -bg black
start rxvt -fn "Lucidia Console-12"
start vtwm
I get the b&w checkerd X screen and the X cursor and I can move the cursor
around. That is all that happens.
I switch back to windows using Alt-Tab and type 'xterm' and it tells me
'unable to open display "127.0.0.1:0.0"
I run ipconfig and it tells me that my ip is 9.99.247.10 (provided by DHCP).
I set my display var to be that ip and
I restart X and I get the same error message by with the new ip. Any ideas
what is wrong?
