Hi. Just yesterday I installed the updated cygwin X server.
When I retstarted the system, I was not able to type characters in my shell. I found the problem - I had previously made a copy of the startxwin.bat file and modified it to start rxvt instead of xterm. The startxwin.bat file has been updated now, so you should update your copy of startxwin.bat with these changes also. There might be a better way to do this, but at the moment I am a happy camper ;-) Tallak -- 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/
