RE: problems with xfre 4.0.3 and WinME

[Suhaib Siddiqi <ssiddiqi at inspirepharm dot com>]

First, how about you use Xf86 4.1.0?  I am waiting for naming convention
from Harold then I want to get rid of Xfree86 4.0.3.  There are some
compatibility issues.  Also edit your startxwin.bat and ad REM before lines
which have start rxvt, start mxterm and start xfwm.  BTW why did you remove
REM from the following?  You cannot use multiple Windows Managers on same X
display?

Do a search on mail archive there are 100s of mails which have answer to
your problems, please.
