Hey everyone,

I've been using LyX on Linux for a few months. Now I'm trying to install
it on Windows so I can view LyX files on both platforms.

I installed fpTeX and Cygwin. Then I followed the instructions for
installing the Windows version of LyX. According to the documentation:

"Installing the package 'Xfree86-Runtime' is only necessary if you do
not have installed the XFree server. Unselecting that package works as
described above for the Cygwin installation"

So I installed XFree86-Runtime, but when I try to open LyX I get a
message that the X server is not found. Since xfree86-runtime only
installs a few DLL's, I don't know how to get the server running
_BEFORE_ executing LyX.

Any pointers?

TIA,

Roberto
