A workaround which seems to be effective for most people is to do the install in two stages: first time, run setup, and deselect all the X-related packages, just installing the rest of cygwin; after that completes successfully, run setup again, this time just installing the X packages. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
