I get these errors when my local x server isn't running or is broke. I use Humming bird quite a bit from a company win2k laptop. I'm also experimenting with cygwin X. Perhaps it's a silly question, but is you local X in good working order? Also I notice that the error above shows it trying to connect to lcoalhost:14.0, are you srue you set DISPLAY= correctly?
