Good luck. That's definitely it I'm pretty sure it's an environment variable that got messed with. Cradle during install set $SHELL to nutc without telling me, and I'm 90% sure that's what caused Windowmaker to choke. Now I just need to figure out which of these other system variables need to go, and which ones I need to put back in.

I can type an ls and get a file listing, and a ps gives me processes. However whenever I try to ssh -Y to another machine, it tells me Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal. Anyone ever seen this before, and a solution? I'd suggest reading the problem reporting guidelines outlined at the link below: Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html You've given us some information about how the problem manifests itself but it would be helpful to know what other Xserver you installed as well as basic boot-strap information (i.e. cygcheck output - *attached* not included/inlined). -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
