Don't understand error message re "font path element"



I installed all packages in the latest version of Cygwin (1.5.25-15). But, when I tried to execute startxwin.sh (and also startxwin.bat), an error occurred and the log listed below was saved to XWin.log. In the /tmp/ directory there was also a .X11-unix directory, containing an X0 file in which there was this string: !<socket >4975 s 479BE23F-5B2EC25A-717046AF-254E77EA (terminated by a NULL).


The directories

    ... /fonts/TTF/
    ... /fonts/Type1/
    ... /fonts/CID/
    ... /fonts/100dpi/

were not present in the original Cygwin installation, so I added them and attempted to start the Xwindow again, but with the same result.

See error dialogue at <http://imagebin.ca/view/UKy9Kos6.html>. See console interaction at <http://imagebin.ca/view/EvImbjKA.html>.

Hedley
