Fatal error

[evgarcia@ull.es]

Hello,

my name is Eva García Llorente, I have installed a new version of
cygwin (that one which is necessary for installing the latest Singular
version (3-1-1)). It is supposed to be installed,but when I try to  
execute Singular (Emacs and X-server) a fatal error occurs, and in  
/var/log/Xwinlog is reported the following error:

Welcome to the XWin X Server
Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project
Release: 1.7.5.0 (10705000)
Build Date: 2010-02-25

Contact: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com
XWin was started with the following command line:

xwin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error

ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens
winInitializeDefaultScreens - w 1280 h 800
winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning

Fatal server error:
Can't read lock file /tmp/.X0-lock

I have tried these possible solutions (FAQ):

    1. startxwin -- -nolock
    2. rm -rf /tmp; mkdir /tmp ; chmod 1777 /tmp

and they have not worked.

I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance!!
