Re: X securitypolicy eror on Win98

ok, thanks. I copied one from my linux partition and it works too.

X is now working on my Win98 2nd Edition.

I had to remove "/b" from the "start" command in startxwin.bat to make it
work.

Xdm works too. I can "xv" and display the graphics perfectly. A bit slow,
but it works.

Only problem is when I tried to display an application that fill the whole
screen, it bomb up!

open Cygwin bash shell
then
cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver
touch SecurityPolicy
