It's probably too much to hope that this would solve all of the reported problems but I would appreciate if people would give the latest snapshot a try: http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ cgf -- 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/
