I'm new to cygwin... I installed it all with the guide on the web page.. the console work great! I
installed cygwin/xfree and when I run "C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\startxwin.bat" I get this :
_XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root

error opening security policy file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy
then a window open, the X server.. not fullscreen... well I only have a gray background and my
mouse cursor is a big black "X" and it stay there forever... I know in linux we get there before
it load the shell but I think I don't have any shell (windows managers) and I checked the cygwin
page I can't find some.. is it normal? Oh and there is something in the guide that I don't
understand.. the vhost and telnet connection thing... it don't work and I don't understand why we
need to make a host/client....
