Re: Is my X Server not fully started (Rel: 6.8.2.0-4)

Weird. This one is beyond me.


I also wonder if the 'xterm' should open an xterm window in Windows? It
doesn't.

It should, once Xwin.exe (which also produces the X icon) is running.


FWIW, my windows PATH is 897 bytes when %xxx% symbolics are resolved. So
when the .bat scripts append to the front it may be getting to whatever
limit Windows has these days, or a possible limit that Cygwin can handle.

If you suspect PATH length may be an issue, try abbreviating it as a test (i.e., cut out a huge chunk of the directories it points to, and try Cygwin/X again). I doubt this is related, though.


Does anyone know if Cygwin and Cygwin/X have been tested under VMware?
