So, you've got the situation I surmised in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-11/msg00200.html
Grr, I saw that, went and _thought_ I got the right version but
it seems the right version wasn't avaiable at the time and
I got fooled by the 0.3.0-1 to think 0.3.1. I have carefully
upgraded, and when running Setup17.exe I saw it wanted to
revert, but I didn't let it.
Exactly, the "evil setup" tries to revert it to 0.3.0-1 every time. Quite
easy to forget keeping an eye on that when tinkering with other packages.
The X window showed up, but it blew up real good (the windows
disappeared, then the X icon. After a reboot....it
didn't launch at all. I ran startxwin.sh from the Cygwin Bash
Shell, and it started.
At least we're getting *somewhere* :-)
Ok, what happens when entering the two vital commands by hand in the the
Cygwin Bash Shell (waiting with the second until the X-icon has appeared)?
XWin -multiwin &
xterm -display :0
Reproducible success?
Asks
