Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2005 13:52:56 -0600 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed X-IsSubscribed: yes Hi, I just installed gv using the cygwin installer, I select "Download from the internet" option and the install process runs for quite a while. After that I run "/usr/X11R6/bin/gv.exe" and I saw this error, gv: Unable to open the display. What does that mean? Should I install something else for gv to run? Shoudn't cygwin installer already consider that? Thanks. _________________________________________________________________ On the road to retirement?
