2024-04-04 Thread Bruce Jerrick via Cygwin
As of cygwin 3.5.3-1, 'find' reports "Device or resource busy" and exits with status 1 on these two files:   $ find /cygdrive/c/{pagefile,swapfile}.sys   /cygdrive/c/pagefile.sys   find: ‘/cygdrive/c/pagefile.sys’: Device or resource busy   /cygdrive/c/swapfile.sys   find:

Desktop partially inert with mintty running

2024-02-15 Thread Bruce Jerrick via Cygwin
Has anyone had this happen: Sometimes when I have a mintty running, the upper-left quandrant of the desktop becomes inert to the mouse -- icons do not respond to hovers or clicks, and the desktop background does not respond to a right-click. The remainder of the desktop behaves normally.

Can util-linux 2.33.1-3 come out of [test] ?

2024-02-02 Thread Bruce Jerrick via Cygwin
util-linux 2.33.1-3 depends on cygwin >= 3.5.0 .  The latter has come out of test, so can util-linux 2.33.1-3 also come out of test? -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html
