C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin>gdb XWin.exe 29 [main] ? 1840 init_cheap: Couldn't reserve space for cygwin's heap, Win3 2 error 487 c:\cygwin\bin\gdb.exe (1840): *** AllocationBase 0x0, BaseAddress 0x616A0000, Re gionSize 0x1AE0000, State 0x10000 C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin>bash bash-2.05b$ gdb XWin.exe 175 [main] ? 1188 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve space for cygwin' s heap (0x616A0000 <0xCA0000>) in child, Win32 error 487 C:\cygwin\bin\gdb.exe (1188): *** m.AllocationBase 0x0, m.BaseAddress 0x616A0000 , m.RegionSize 0x1AE0000, m.State 0x10000 bash-2.05b$ So that's something, anyway - neither XWin or gdb run under my system in the post 1.5.7-1 snapshots. As a data point to try and claim that I am not a total moron, this does WFM on another machine running XP Home (20040218 snapshot + XWin.exe). -Richard Campbell. -- 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/
