No, no. My problem of intermittent crashes has occurred running emacs under X under cygwin 1.5.7-1. Under cygwin 20040217 (or any post 1.5.7-1 snapshot), I cannot start X at all. As a result, I have reverted to 1.5.7-1. What I was saying was that since 20040217 fixed emacs problems for others, it might work for me as well. However, I can't tell because I'm unwilling to give up X. -Richard Campbell. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
