Starting XServer

["Stephen Grant Brown" <s_g_brown at aapt dot net dot au>]

Dear Sir/Madam
I am having trouble starting the cygwin xfree server.
I was running cygwin in e:/cygwin
I deleted this via the setup program
I installed cygwin in c:/cygwin.
At this stage XServer was working but not bash.
I went back into setup and reinstalled bash.
Bash now works.
XServerver throws up the following log file

(WW) /tmp mounted int textmode
_XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root
(II) XF86Config is not supported
(II) See http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html for more information

Fatal server error:

I then checked the font path.
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts exists
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID does not exist.
What do I do to fix this?

Yours Sincerely Stephen Grant Brown
