3-button-mouse emulating
Hi, When using XWin as X server, it has a option let me emulate 3-button-mouse, but if I don't use XWin and x and X server ( this is default when I start x window by running startx script), how do I do the same thing?

fc-cache: failed to write cache
Hi, I removed cygwin1.5 on both of my two computers, one is a laptop and another is a desktop, they are all Windows XP. I then installed cygwin 1.7 for them, the result is strange. The laptop seems okay, but the desktop, after I tried re-install many times, still always fail when I execute fa-cache on it, the error messages are: ... /cygdrive/c/Windows/Fonts: caching, new cache contents: 598 fonts, 0 dirs /cygdrive/c/Windows/Fonts: caching: failed to write cache ... (repeat for other font directories) ... But If I install cygwin1.5 on the desktop, it is always okay with fc-cache.

RE: fc-cache: failed to write cache
After did some explore on my system, I found a very strange thing: the permissions on directory /etc/postinstall and all scripts contained in it are no correctly.

What's wrong with my installation? I was using offline installation, and should be no corruption.

Re: fc-list does not list windows system fonts under cygwin

It's not working! I think this only recently started working in some limited circumstances (See http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-09/msg00010.html), and there isn't enough version information in OP to determine if it should work or not :-) I don't get the point. Anyway, fc-list should list fonts in c:\windows\fonts in default, is it true or false? My problem is just that it does not do it. My fc-list is 2.6.0 and I don't know how to check cygwin's version, but it was installed recently.
