I can confirm that after a recent update, I get this with every single application I've tried: most of the time, nothing returns to the foreground with 'fg'. In other news the same updates have also broken X, which keeps crashing so often, that it's impossible to use it. Together with this fg brokenness, Cygwin is ATM in pretty much completely unusable state... in addition to its typical dog-slowness (Cygwin rsync: 1hour for DVD to disk; MS robocopy: 25min... and I don't even want to think how slow nanoblogger is). -- Off the dope since 2009; http://iki.fi/tuomov/b/archives/2009/07/21/T17_26_09/ -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
