Today I had a lull in work so I was able to close all my apps and reboot my PC - an event I often have to plan days in advance for I'm afraid. Upon resurrection, I now note that this problem seems to no longer occur. I can open multiple 1.5 and 1.7 mintty sessions without any apparent problems. I'm still not able to launch 1.7's apache2 however - but that's the subject of another email. Thanks for everyone's responses. -- David. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
