This is curious. I don't seem to have IPv6 installed and the server starts fine for me, with that warning.
I was running 1.6.0 on WinXP w/o IPv6 installed for some time.
You could try disabling the IPv6 socket with '-nolisten inet6' to see if it makes a difference.
It does start a bit faster.
Cygwin 1.7 adds IPv6 support, so the IPv6 support in xtrans is now turned on. I guess there could easily be cygwin-specific problems with it...
It seems that the same applies for the other xservers. But interestingly, xscope (which is also acts as an X server, and uses Xtrans) starts immediately while emitting the same warning. So I suspect the culprit is in xserver/os/ rather than Xtrans.
1. After running startxwin.bat, it takes about 20 seconds for the X icon to appear in the taskbar. I guess that's related to the socket problems reported in the log.
Confirmed; I just hadn't noticed it because of how I was launching X. Yaakov -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
