Hi
I have been unable to view gnuplot images or run the test command even with my
terminal type set to x11, as x11 just aborts.
Nor can I do: startx
as I get the following (no terminal, and just hangs):
$ startx

Not sure what is going on, as I have all the Cygwin x11 options installed.
Plus none of the Cygwin-X icons on the start menu do anything.
Any help at all appreciated.
