Starting Cygwin/Xfree86 (4.2) with starxwin.bat or startxwin.sh
or startx ends up with the same message them .. Can't open display.
Message from startxwin.sh
>sh /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.sh
Agent pid 2212
xsetroot: unable to open display '127.0.0.1:0.0'

xterm Xt error: Can't open display: 127.0.0.1:0.0
I'm running Win XP w/cygwin 1.3.18-1
The FAQ refers to a potential firewall problem ..
which (i believe) is not the case ..
as I run many many other TCP/IP apps on this PC with no problem.
I am at a lost where to start .. as I believe this may have to do
with XP (not seeing any other probable solutions in the archives).
attached is my cygcheck file
