I get now the same kind of errors again with startx: 326 [main] xterm 4680 child_copy: linked dll data write copy failed, 0x869000..0x86CF40, done 0, windows pid 5416, Win32 error 87 xterm: Error 29, errno 11: Resource temporarily unavailable Reason: spawn: fork() failed xinit: Resource temporarily unavailable (errno 11): can't send HUP to process group 4680 ...and I found such hits in older messages in the archive, with other variants of Windows, in conjunction to inconsistent versions of cygwin1.dll. That's one thing that can cause it. Another cause is interference from system-call-hooking software such as anti-virus and firewalls. What the error message is trying to tell you is that during the fork operation, it has been unable to duplicate an area of memory from the parent process into the child process. Since it's a requirement that fork() create child processes identically laid out to their parents, this is a fatal situation. I checked there is no such problem now. Good. The next things to try would be running a rebaseall[*], and checking the BLODA[**]. But running 'cygcheck -s', I got into: Windows Longhorn/Vista (not yet supported!) Ver 6.0 Build 6000 Yes, Vista isn't well supported; not a lot of the list members even have it! cheers, DaveK [*] - less -c /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rebase-2.4.3.README [**] - http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-talk/2007-q4/msg00026.html -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today -- 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/

Thanks... Dave Korn wrote: Good. The next things to try would be running a rebaseall[*], and checking the BLODA[**]. rebaseall ran without any output. The only BLODA I can recognize is McAfee anti-virus. There is an integrated WebCam on the laptop, but no Logitech labelled process in the task manager output. After this, startx started at least twice in a row, but emacs didn't show up. I.e. started, but no window!... I ran the ash rebaseall with my normal account, not as Administrator...?

Unfortunately, there are serious problems with the (experimental) emacs 22.1 package, as I and at least one other person reported last July when it was released.
