Subject:	Problem running emacs under XP
To:	cygwin AT cygwin DOT com
MIME-Version:	1.0

I installed cygwin in my D: partition under Win XP.
Running startx results in the usual screen and the
3 windows. However, when I type in my usual
"emacs . &", I get this

emacs: cannot connect to X server :0.0.
Check the DISPLAY evironment variable or use '-d'.
Also use the 'xhost' program to verify that it is set to
permit
connections from your machine.

When I enter "xhost +", I get this

xhost: unable to open display ":0.0"

Here are my environment variables:

!C:=C:\Documents and Settings\Marty
!D:=D:\cygwin\bin

I am sure there is some simple configuration file I am not
setting up, since do the same thing worked find on a Win
2000 machine. The only difference, aside from XP vs 2000,
is that I had no problems with cygwin on C:, and the
problems here on D:.

Thanks
