Dear XWinners,
It seems Setup _did_ install the new Xorg after all. But, it still won't
run. After navigating to the top directory, I tried two ways to invoke XWin
and got two bad results:
$startxwin.bat
==> causes a 'Run.exe' window that says:
"Error: Couldn't find XWin anywhere.
I even looked in the PATH
I also tried the following extensions:
[1]:
[2]: .exe
and another one that says:
"Error: could not start C:\cygwin\bin\xterm.exe -sl 1000 -sb -rightbar
-ms red -fg yellow -bg black -e /usr/bin/bash -l"
$startxwin.sh
==> causes an 'Error Starting Program' window that says:
"A required .DLL file, CYGX11-6.DLL, was not found."
Do I just need to set some parameters, or have I got an incomplete
installation?
Regards,
