I installed cygwin on my Windows XP laptop to access my linux workstation via ssh -X. Unfortunately, when I try to open a x-window application on the remote machine, I get the error Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display on my laptop, if I am not running the X-server under cygwin. I installed the gtk2-Version for cygwin which is recommended in the mailing list archives. (So gtk2-win32 and gtk-engines-win32)
If anyone has an idea how to handle that problem or if it is not possible to open mozilla for example without starting the cygwin X-server, please let me know, thanks, Bernhard -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
