RE: startxwin/XWin won't start properly


"Bradley, Mike" <mike_bradley@mentor.com> was heard to say:

Notice the value of $DISPLAY above, which does not match whats in XWin.0.log (it has :0.0).? No idea how/why that happens.?


$DISPLAY is empty over here unless I manually set it. But then, I'm not sure if it has something to do with your problems, as 127.0.0.1:0.0 points to the first display on localhost, which IMHO isn't all that wrong. What happens if you set $DISPLAY manually, e.g. to ":0.0". This always worked fine for me.


regards,
Markus
