Even more important -- use the correct mailing list. Personally, I'm amazed at the amount of trouble that the simple act of un-bzip2ing a tar archive generates for the cygwin-xfree project but they're somewhat used to dealing with these questions. So, send email to the cygwin-xfree mailing list and they'll probably help you. Can I again suggest that people redirect X-related questions to this mailing list? I've Cc'd this message there and reset the reply-to so that replies should go there as well. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
