Hi, I installed/uninstalled cygwin couple of times, previously. When I install a new version (1.5.24) now, I get the following error, when I start any app:
************* C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\xinit.exe (2936): *** system shared memory version mismatch detected - 0x2D1E009C/0x75BE0081. This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL. Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should* reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you are unable to find another cygwin DLL. ************** I searched on my drive and the only cygwin1.dll is x:\cygwin\bin. I uninstalled cygwin (as recommended at the FAQ) cleaned registry entries and path, etc.., rebooted and installed cygwin again. I continue to see the same problem. Is there a way to find which app is creating the shared memory area? Any help is appreciated. How can I fix this without having to reimage my machine? Thanks.
