I occasionally have trouble with screen as well, and as far as I can tell, it always happens when trying to create a new screen. =A0(To be clear, when I start screen the first time or when I press: ctrl-a c) So, it may be that screen itself is not the problem in my case. Because this occurs only rarely, I have no idea how to duplicate it, and I think disabling any programs that /might/ be interfering would be inconclusive at best. =A0If it happens again, is there anything I can do that would lead to a proper diagnosis? I should probably also point out that when I work with cygwin, I work almost exclusively with text-based programs. So, I rarely have a need for X, and I use a command prompt window. =A0Is there a better terminal for those circumstances? -- 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
