Hi
I like to start X with a whole bunch of windows instead of creating each
time. In Cygwin 1.5 I did this with no problem.
In 1.7 this hangs. It hangs in a way where I can't open anything else
and have to pull the power to computer. If I comment out all the xterm's
it works fine.
What an interesting .xinitrc :-)
I can reproduce the problem using it. I seem to end up with a few of the
xterms spinning somewhere and trying to use 100% CPU, and outputting the
following:
No protocol specified
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :0
After inserting 'sleep 1' into the .xinitrc before each xterm seems to start
up without trouble, so I guess there's some sort of timing condition
somewhere, although I've no idea where...
