Try your 'ls' command or some variation of it in that terminal. - started login shell (either using MinTTY or a DOSbox) - invoked startxwin (which is the same as starting the server from the Start Menu) Had to fiddle w/ the notification area (tray) before the required icons appeared. Next proceeded as you instructed above. Result: grep complains ("grep: Write error: Broken pipe"). Problem confirmed.
