you are sure the problem is with whether X is running or not? we cant seem
to find this dll at all. I get exact same call stack from under X term
session. any idea where this dll lives and why it is not there?

the only things I have in my X11 lib folder are these. are we missing
mapping? where does the mapping suppose to be defined for this to work?
