waiting for X server to begin accepting connections .

[Marc Girod <marc dot girod at gmail dot com>]

Hello,

Tonight, from home, over my employer's VPN connection: impossible to start
Gnu emacs over X.
After the usual expr dumping core:

/usr/bin/startx: line 47:  6444 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) expr
"$1" : ':[0-9][0-9]*$' > /dev/null 2>&1

I get an effect which I have already seen, but only until now in a transient
mode:

waiting for X server to begin accepting connections .
..
..
..
..

Only now, it goes on until timeout, and reproduces on the next try...

The log ends in:

xwin> tail -2 XWin.0.log
[ 12500.250] winMultiWindowXMsgProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and
successfully opened the display.
[ 12500.250] winClipboardProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully
opened the display.

My command (in a batch file):

chdir C:\cygwin\bin
bash --login -c "/usr/bin/startx /usr/bin/emacs -g 90x37+150+0 -- /usr/bin/X
:0 -multiwindow -clipboard"

What can be the cause?
Thanks
Marc
