Subject: Back Creation Failed
Hi,
Today I downloaded and installed the latest binaries of the XFree86 stuff
for cygwin and whenever I try to start it I get the following message (also
with startwin from a command (not bash) prompt)
Back Creation Failed
887601b3
Configuration:
Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional with SP1 applied.
ATI Rage 128 GL SG AGP with 16M memory
I browsed through the list archives and the FAQ but I could not find the
answer to my problem there. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Pieter-Bas
