Hallo,
I've just installed Cygwin and Cygwin/X ( last update 2004-04-23 ) on
Windows Xp and Windows 2000
I start Cygwin/X from Windows Explorer by running startxwin.bat;
Cygwin/X server starts normally and the xterm
windows opens. If I close the xterm windows I'm not able to start
xterm again; infact if I try to start xterm from
Windows Start Menu clicking on Xterm icon ( created by Cygwin
installation ) nothing happens.
All other applications like xeyes , xcalc , xclock etc. start
perfectly from the Windows Start Menu.
This happens on Windows XP and 2000 ( I could not test on other
windows platform)
Does anybody have any idea about this problem ?
regards,
Diego
