The RUN commands that comes with Cygwin-X (\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\run.exe) has a problem on Windows Vista Beta 2.
When I tried running Xwin.exe and ssh.exe using that RUN command on Vista, it caused a blue-screen crash of the OS. Changing my scripts to use the Windows command-shell START Command instead of the run command stopped the crash from happening, but of course doesn't create the window "hidden". I'd guess there is some parameter being passed to CreateProcess that didn't used to matter on XP, but now matters to Vista, and is set wrong. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
