Hi,
I'm having problem starting xwin using the startxwin batch file.
When I run xwin from the file with
run xwin
the systray icon appears, and everything seems to work, but I don't see
my x desktop.
If i run xwin from a command prompt using run, i get the same behaviour,
but if I run win without the run command the window appears correctly.
The only time i've managed to get xwin to start showing me an x desktop
is to run it with the -fullscreen switch, but that;s not how i want it.
I had assumed the window as just off the screen to start with, but I
could not find it all using any means. I also checked the registry
incase it had entries for initial window placement, but i couldn't find any.
I'm stumped. Anyone seen this before and have any ideas?
Thanks,
Martin
