I tried SFU. Hated it. Going back to Cygwin.
It requires Visual C++.
I have that, but I don't like the fact that it really can't compile any
of my software. Only Cygwin and Mingw can.
Visual Studio Too, but that's because I want MP3 capabiilty on my songs.

After I uninstalled SFU now, it works again;) And I still have DISPLAY
defined in .bashrc. Im starting rxvt directly with a shortcut, then
rxvt doesn't see the define in .bashrc until it has started, then bash
is started and .bashrc is sourced, so that isn't the problem here.
I also verified that DISPLAY wasn't defined as a global environment
setting during SFU installation.
