Hello! I've installed Cygwin on a Windows 98 system and have been attempting, unsuccessfully, to start the X server. The log file below shows what happens: the X server thinks Windows is running with a display depth of 1 whereas in fact the display is running at 16 colors. I've checked and rechecked this in the Display settings in the control panel to make absolutely sure. Any idea how I might go about solving this problem? Thanks very much. -Ben Bullock ------------------------------------------------ Welcome to the XWin X Server Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 6.7.0.0-10 Contact: cygwin-xfree <at> cygwin.com XWin was started with the following command line: XWin -multiwindow -clipboard ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens winInitializeDefaultScreens - w 640 h 480 winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning winValidateArgs - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1 (II) XF86Config is not supported (II) See http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html for more information winDetectSupportedEngines - Windows 95/98/Me winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw not installed winSetEngine - Multi Window or Rootless => ShadowGDI winAdjustVideoModeShadowGDI - Using Windows display depth of 1 bits per pixel winScreenInit - Unsupported display depth: 1 Change your Windows display depth to 15, 16, 24, or 32 bits per pixel. winScreenInit - Supported depths: 8080c080 Fatal server error: InitOutput - Couldn't add screen 0 --------------------------------------
