[coLinux-devel] Getting X to work natively

[Jason A. P. <pat...@pc...>]

I read an e-mail that said that once someone got networking going and 
Internet Connection Sharing, they just apt-get update'd and apt-get 
install'd X, vnc, etc. and "it all just worked".  Does that mean that 
you got X running natively under Windows?  I tried using the 'vesa' 
driver to X 4.1.0 available in woody.  It messes up the Windows display 
and moves my existing desktop offscreen.  Moving the mouse slides the 
screen around until it "locks" back in place the way it should be.  I'm 
currently going to go for the kdm running on coLinux with cygwin's X 
server as the display.  It would be nice to be able to alleviate this 
dependency, though.

Thanks.
