Please find my diagnostics listed below the discussion here.I have not found any reference to a similar issue. Ghostview (gv) fails on two different cygwin distros and two different Window OSs. I re-installed gv a couple of times, but no luck. I have found references to multiple versions of Ghostscript installations interfering with gv, but that doesn't seem to apply here. My cygcheck.out: Username changed to "user1"; computer name changed to "pc1"; place changed to "America/Any_City_USA". Some permission errors popped up when I ran it--didn't record them. XWin.0.log: I didn't include--doesn't seem to be an X-problem. Thanks for your help! Distributions: 1.) Windows Vista CYGWIN_NT-6.0 PC 1.7.10(0.259/5/3) 2012-02-05 12:36 i686 Cygwin 2.)

this told you the problem. The library was not correctly loaded. As most of your packages are old may I suggest first to udpdate all of them and then retry ? Otherwise debugging will be impossible for us.
