Let me know what I could do. Remove 'cygwin1.dll' from 'C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\cygwin1.dll'. Use 'startxwin.bat' or 'startxwin.sh', depending on whether you're starting it from a DOS shell or bash. Text mode mounts are not recommended. Text mode mounts for '/usr/bin' and '/usr/lib' are asking for trouble. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

When they were installed in a textmode mount, the fonts.dir among others will have been generated with dos line endings. You could regenerate them manually, but it's easier to just run setup and select reinstall.
