Re: problems starting xterm

"Larry Hall (Cygwin X)" <reply-to-list-only-lh-x@cygwin.com> was heard to say:

For the mintty test case, yes, you need to set DISPLAY. Use this:

export DISPLAY=:0.0 

Yep, that works, except for the following warning:
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion

As this method to start xterm seems to work, do I have to start the X server some other way than I do now? I just use the Win start menu entry Cygwin-X->XWin Server.

thanks
Markus
