Lately, I cannot get to the point where it prompts me if I wan to include an icon on the desktop. I'm also assuming the /tmp directory you refer to is within cygwin, correct? So far I see nothing, I'll wait until it hangs and check again. The directory that is used by Cygwin, that may be /tmp but is not in case you have not defioned TMP=/tmp & TEMP=/tmp, if there is no extra define in your profile the default Windows TEMP directory is used. Just try in a Cygwin shell: $ ls $TMP and $ ls $TEMP C:\cygwin\tmp>dir Volume in drive C is HP_PAVILION Volume Serial Number is 1C37-0926 Directory of C:\cygwin\tmp 12/28/2004 02:44 AM . 12/28/2004 02:44 AM .. 0 File(s) 0 bytes 2 Dir(s) 40,921,935,872 bytes free This looks not like it was used.

One problem is a stale /tmp/gconf-$USER directory, gconfd-2 cannot start if this directory already exists, postinstall scripts need to take care of this. However, it is not possible to remove the directory while gconfd-2 is running, so probably s.th. like this should be added: if ( ps -e | grep gconfd-2 > /dev/null ) ; then echo ;\ else rm -rf /tmp/gconfd-* ; fi Another user reported that it also fails for him after ensuring that this directory is not present, I asked him to verify that he is really using /tmp as temporary directory, IIRC there was no reply yet if this was the reason or if my guess was wrong (he posted no cygcheck output so far. I've contacted him again. Peter, could you check if there is /tmp/gconfd-$USER directory in your temp dir and if so, remove it and try again, please. Gerrit -- =^..^=
