Re: Problems with Windows XP



Hello Pedro -

>From the error message, it looks like there is something amiss with your X server software.  I'd recommend checking the configuration and making sure that things look like they are set correctly.   I'm not familiar with MI/X, but do know that Ferret works under XP using Exceed.  You might try running a simple X application (like "xclock) from another machine and seeing if you can get that to work.

Let me know if you continue to have problems.
