You click on the second column until it says "Keep". The interface could be more user friendly, but it does the job. I've not updated this PC to X11R7 because I need a server with accelerated GL. That hasn't stopped me from updating the rest of my cygwin packages. The rest of your response was just a pointless and unwarranted rant. Just follow the links I gave you, do what they tell you, and if you've still got a problem, we can start dealing with it. > Even if I accept (which I do not really) that I was not enough careful > in applying the update what should I do now: kill myself? Erm... only if you really, really want to, and it has to be your own decision. > p.s.

I just googled too, for "fonts site:x.cygwin.com", and the first result was the cygwin X FAQ that I previously listed. The section on updates includes what is almost certainly the answer to your problem. If your problem genuinely is not covered by any of the links I gave you, then by all means post a follow-up, but in that case, you should tell us exactly what you *have* tried to resolve it, and why your problem isn't covered by the existing documentation. If you don't include that information, then we can only assume that the existing answers are good enough, but that you've not read or tried them. If you don't understand the documentation, then that is an equally valid point to raise. I assume from your email that you are not a native English speaker, and so it's possible that the language could be made simpler for you. If this is the case for you, then you should say which parts need clarifying. Remember, this is free software, written, maintained and supported by unpaid volunteers. Nobody owes you anything.
