Digambar: Whenever I start up xephyr for the first time in a Moblin 1.0 session I always run into the same issue as you. Here are the commands I use to solve it:
1. In a host terminal run "xhost +" (been mentioned previously) 2. In your Moblin 1.0 target terminal, after xephyr blows up running "ume-xephyr-start" the first time: -do "apt-get install xfonts-cyrillic" if you do not already have this package installed -do "pkill gconfd" or "killall gconfd-2" (I do the first command) -rerun "ume-xephyr-start". If it still fails, kill gconf again and try running in a different resolution: "ume-xephyr-start 800x480" Works for me every time.
