Hi,

I just installed cygwin without any trouble. The command prompt window appears to be working fine, as does the vi editor. When attempting to launch an xwindow, only the main window will open and the system apparently hangs. Prompt window displays
..

until you close the main xwindow, and then displays:

giving up.
xinit: No such file or directory <errno 2>: unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process <errno 3>: Server error.

I'm running win NT. Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks!

John Staroba
