ash ./rebaseall In case applications are not running (end silently), you man install strace and run strace <app> to see if there are missing dll's. The related package could often be found in the missing dll name e.g. if cygxcb-1.dll is missing, this will probably mean that the xcb or libxcb package is required but not installed. Such missing package should be reported to the maintainer to make it able to fix this in future. Ralf ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
