RE: startxwin/XWin won't start properly
"Bradley, Mike" <mike_bradley@mentor.com> was heard to say:
I don't see any difference if I set DISPLAY to :0.0 or
127.0.0.1:0.0. However, in the past its only worked if I set to
127.0.0.1:0.0
My current procedure to start X is as follows:
1. do not set $DISPLAY anywhere. It is just empty.
2. open MinTTY
3. type something like "startxwin /usr/bin/emacs"
That's about it.
regards,
Markus
