Hi jojelino, gs is unlikely crashing as the fltk.png is correctly produced. From strace I know that octave crashes before gs complete its output. Are you sure about the bug number ? http://www.ghostscript.com/pipermail/gs-bugs/2009-November/010447.html is referring to patent expiration Regards Marco -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
