I am trying to connect to a Gentoo X Server and it is connecting, but I don't seem to be able to open an xterm. All I get is a full screen without anything. I am running this command:

I did this for years using FreeBSD as the server. No problems.

XWin -query d-tuxedo

Ok, I used the startup script provided by cygwin to start the local X server and then connected to the FreeBSD machine.

Did you set the DISPLAY variable properly on the Linux box?
