Ron,
Why ask why? It can all be traced back to the primordial singularity, of
course.
Is your HOME set in the Windows environment? If it is, the value inherited
from the environment upon shell startup will override the value that would
otherwise have been taken from your entry in /etc/passwd.
That is it. My $HOME is set to '/'. If I change it to
something else things work as expected.
This opens up two questions,
1. Why is $HOME set to '/'? According to /etc/profile
it should be set to /home/RDW. id -un returns RDW. Not
sure why this is not setup correctly.
2. This was working fine
Ron,
Again, a good place to look is your environment.
This example suggests strongly that your HOME environment variable is
simply "/". I think some code (in this case "cvs") blindly takes the value
of environment variables that are meant to name directories and blindly
appends a slash and wha
Ron,
That's your problem.
Somehow (most likely based on an environment variable that's set but empty
or perhaps set to "/"), Vim is constructing a path name that begins with
"//". That's the syntactic signal for to look for a network share. In your
case, the shared named ".terminfo" is looked
Somehow a // has been introduced into my system. Below
is the strace to cvs.
My path is,
/usr/local/bin
:/usr/bin:/bin
:/cygdrive/c/apps/Ora81_personal/bin
:/cygdrive/c/apps/Ora81_personal/Apache/Perl/5.00503/bin/mswin32-86:/cygdrive/c/Apps/Ora81/bin
:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Oracle/jre/1.1.7/bi
Thanks. It works with,
$ strace c:/cygwin/bin/vim.exe
A part of the output is below. Seems to be get held up
on //.terminfo. Why is it going to //.terminfo/x/term?
And why is it
114 2155207 [main] vim 1884 normalize_posix_path:
//.terminfo/x/xterm = normal

Perhaps running the afflicted programs with strace will shed some light
on your problem.

I updated my cygwin setup (full install) a few days
ago and now there is a considerable delay in
application startup. My current version is new. My
original version was as of October sometime.
I read the FAQ and see the issue with //c in the path.
That is not the case for me. In fact the delay is
