Xwin does not start because CYGWIN_ROOT is wrong in startxwin.bat

This bug is valid for 1.5 and 1.7: I have installed cygwin in D:\cygwin-1.5 but startxwin.bat contains SET CYGWIN_ROOT=\cygwin It should be updated to SET CYGWIN_ROOT=\cygwin-1.5 Can someone change this in the installation process? Also the Start in directory should also be D:\ or D:\cygwin-1.5

missing package dependency

I installed cygwin w/ X11 unde Windows XP, created a .Xdefaults file and ran $xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults which gave me an error that cpp is missed - probably a missing dependency isn't it ? Please Cc: me b/c I'm not suscribed to this list. -- MfG/Sincerely Toralf Förster pgp finger print: 7B1A
