Hi,
I am running W2K on a laptop with an older Neomagic video card and could
never get the xserver, which comes with cygwin-xfree to run (okay xggi
worked but was way to slow). From the mailing list archive I conclude that
my Neomagic driver does not support enough of the DirectX functionality.
Microsoft released on update for W2K to DirectX8 (you have run the windows
update program) ... now everything seems to work out of the box.
Thanks for the great work,
Christoph
