Never mind that last email. It's still broken. I think it's actually the fork() mechanism that is screwing up my machine. When a cygwin application loads, while Winamp is playing a song, Winamp freezes its playback. There are many other side effects. The instruction at "0x61037F94" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "written". I get that when closing some programs; always when I close man, and every so often when a "make" finishes (usually this occurs when many makes are done, like nested makes) -- Barubary -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
