I have had the same problems on and off. I'm essentially following the steps you documented, except I do this before: - exit all Cygwin processes. For me, this is usually just the X server - run 'ash' from a Window Command Prompt - rebaseall from the ash prompt. It's been good for the last week or so. I'm afraid to reboot the computer. - Jim -- Jim Reisert AD1C, <jjreis...@alum.mit.edu>, http://www.ad1c.us -- 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
