I've a new version posted on http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~goal/xfree/Xming.exe.bz2 - -query is working - fontdirs can use drive letters in from - default fontpath and rgbfile are relocated place Xming.exe in cygwin /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 and it will find all fonts and the rgb file.

It's required for scprintf which counts how much characters a sprintf would write.

Maybe the fontserver is not responding. most linux distributions havbe it setup without tcp transport. Check /etc/X11/fs/config and comment the line "no-listen = tcp" bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
