Greetings, I've recently installd cygwin on both a win98 machine and a winxp machine. The win98 installs works great (except for being really slow, but that's a hardware issue.) On the XP side, I've installed it, but getting some strange behavior. If I do a 'startx', I get the following:
[: and: unknown operand [: and: unknown operand After doing some playing around with the startx script, I've come to realize it's complaining about the bash conditional statements. As though I'm not running under bash.... And as far as I can see, I am. The fall out of this behavior is the inability to control which window manager gets started. I can get around that by commenting out all of the conditionals in startx, but, this seems at best a temporary work around. Am I missing something in setting up/configuring cygwin to run under XP, something that is different than win98? TIA Brian L.
