Re: Cannot start X server


Walter,

Please follows Andrew's suggestion that he just mailed in. You could first try to downgrade cygwin1.dll, if that works, upgrade cygwin1.dll to the current version and repair your passwd file as Andrew describes.

If you, too, are seeing the messages about not finding fonts, then it
is covered in the FAQ...

http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-xfree-faq.html#q-removing-font-path-element

Note that the FAQ is a little out of date. You should NOT be using Xinstall.sh to install XFree86, you should be using the Cygwin setup program and selecting what you want from the XFree86 section.
