With Cygwin 1.5.17-1, after starting XWin (startxwin.bat) and Emacs, the
Emacs window does not show itself, i.e.
$ emacs&
[1] 1776
but the emacs window does not appear! The ps command shows:
$ ps
PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND
1380 1 1380 1380 con 500 20:45:19
/usr/X11R6/bin/XWin
1436 1 1436 1436 con 500 20:45:23 /usr/bin/xterm
1424 1436 1424 1516 0 500 20:45:26 /usr/bin/bash
824 1424 824 1452 0 500 20:52:15 /usr/bin/ssh
1228 1 1228 1228 con 500 21:01:17 /usr/bin/xterm
1292 1228 1292 1704 1 500 21:01:17 /usr/bin/bash
1776 1292 1776 1688 1 500 21:01:28 /usr/bin/emacs
1624 1292 1624 1676 1 500 21:03:07 /usr/bin/ps
i.e. emacs seems to be loaded.
These things happen as Administrator and NOT-Administrator user.
Reinstalling Cygwin 1.5.16-1 all works normally.
In announcing Coreutils 5.3.0-6, E.B. wrote:
"This package REQUIRES cygwin 1.5.17 or newer snapshots"
and in setup.ini is disappeared the previous version (5.3.0-5).
For the moment the hybrid system, 1.5.16-1 and 5.3.0-6, seems to work.
Have you hints?
Thank you,
angelo.
