Fatal server error: Can't read lock file /tmp/.X0-lock
A1:
/tmp resides on a FAT filesystem
Start the server with -nolock (e.g. if you use startxwin.bat or startxwin.sh to start the server, add -nolock to the XWin line in that script; if you use startxwin, xinit or startx, run it as startxwin -- -nolock, xinit -- -nolock or startx -- -nolock)
You should really consider updating the filesystem to NTFS using Microsoft's convert.exe tool.
