Eventually make will just fail to run anymore compiles (in this case always javac). The only way to cure it is to reboot win98. Exiting all bash shell's is not enough. The rest of win98 appears to function ok (well normal) as far as I can tell. Does anyone else experience this? On smaller makes running gcc I have not had a problem. Is Win2k much more stable for using cygwin? I've been thinking of upgrading as I think my main tools will run on win2k: gcc,cygwin,wincvs. ......... -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
