Whenever I run screen I can detach fine but reattaching with any of the parameters I'm trying won't work. here's a sample session.... justink@eac-justin ~ $ screen -r There is no screen to be resumed. justink@eac-justin ~ $ screen cmd [detached] justink@eac-justin ~ $ screen -r justink@eac-justin ~ $ screen -mS irc irssi [detached] justink@eac-justin ~ $ screen -r There are several suitable screens on: 2628.irc (Detached) 5972.console.eac-justin (Detached) Type "screen [-d] -r [pid.]tty.host" to resume one of them. justink@eac-justin ~ $ screen -r irc justink@eac-justin ~ $ screen -r 2628.irc justink@eac-justin ~ $ It seems like once I detach, I'm unable to reattach regardless of what I do. This worked the first time I detached from a session after installing screen with setup.exe (i'm on Screen v 4.00.03 (FAU) 23-Oct-06) Any suggestions would be appreciated! -Justin -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
