Is your login shell set correctly in /etc/passwd?  Looks like the
subsequent xterms run /bin/sh instead of /bin/bash...

F-Secure SSH hangs in Cygwin xterm

[Heath, Mike]

I am having trouble using F-Secure ssh from a Cygwin xterm. It works from a 
Cygwin bash shell, but not from an xterm. Which is what lead me to believe it 
is an XWin issue. Here are all of the software versions I am using in my 
xterm...

Welcome to the XWin X Server
Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project
Release: 6.8.1.0-8

$ xterm -v
Cygwin 6.8.1.0(196)

$ ssh -V
c:\PROGRA~1\F-Secure\Ssh\ssh2.exe: F-Secure SSH Windows Client 5.3 Build 23

bash --version

None of them are critical. They are mostly status and trace messages.

MIT-SHM extension disabled due to lack of kernel support
XFree86-Bigfont extension local-client optimization disabled due to lack 
of shared memory support in the kernel

By installing cygserver you could get IPC support and get these extensions
working. But only few programs need them so you can well live without them.

Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing 
from list!

This is just a message that on of the default locations where fonts are
expected does not exist. But since barely anyone uses CID fonts this is 
no problem at all.

xorg-x11-devel installation failed

[Le Goualher Georges]

Hi,

I've a trouble when installing xorg-x11-devel with
Cygwin Setup 2.457.2.1 on WindowsXP. The installation
stops with the following message:

Can't open
C:\PutThePathHere\libfontconfig-2.2.2-1.tar.bz2.tmp
for writing: No Such file or directory.

In fact even if I try to download the file
(libfontconfig-2.2.2-1.tar.bz2), I can't copy it on my
hard disk as I have the following error message:
"filename  too long".

Any idea of what's going wrong?

Thanks,

Georges
