Notes: telnet, xhost http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/ug/using-remote-apps.html Your group is currently "mkpasswd". This indicates that the /etc/passwd (and possibly /etc/group) files should be rebuilt. See the man pages for mkpasswd and mkgroup then, for example, run mkpasswd -l [-d] > /etc/passwd mkgroup -l [-d] > /etc/group Note that the -d switch is necessary for domain users. --bash--> /etc/profile http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-xfree/2004-05/msg00267.html I don't think it's available, but you don't need it. Just pass --disable-xinerama. And if by latest you mean 1.2.14pre16, file a bug report for the author. Xinerama isn't mandatory, so the test shouldn't make configure stop.
