This is thoroughly bizarre. Nothing should be opening that file except
setup.exe itself (either when creating it or when invoking bash to run it
after installation is com

Doh, yep, wasn't thinking straight. As Mark points out, double-quotes are
probably the simplest alternative.

Hi,
Is there any tool in cygwin that allows me to change the properties of
a device driver? I have TV tuner card, but have a camera plugged into
the Composite port. After each reboot the driver switches back to use
"TV tuner" as input, and I have to change it to use "Composite". I
want to automate
Hi folks,
I just uploaded a new Cygwin 1.7 test release, 1.7.0-43.
Cygwin 1.7 is a major jump from Cygwin 1.5.x. The list with all
changes related to Cygwin 1.5.25 is attached below.

Hi.
When I connect to our cygwin SSH machine (Windows 2003 server), it usually
takes more than 5 seconds to get a prompt and be able to start working. This
delay slows down many of our scripts which rely on SSH to connect to
Windows.
What causes this delay? What is SSH doing that is taking it so

Thanks for both of your ideas and quick reply. I tried your suggestions but
that still doesn't improve the situation... I experience the same delays no
matter how frequent I log in and out, and I always use the IP address
anyways.
Anything else we can try?
Thanks.
Udi.

I had to add quotes around $f in lines 42 and 43 of
/etc/profile.d/complete.tcsh before cygwin would successfully start up a tcsh
window. The problem occurs if one has $HOME elements with spaces in them. You
get a message about invalid "if" syntax.

I went to follow Larry and Dave Korn's advice and move out bash.lst.gz
but it was in use.
procexp showed a bunch of dead DrWtsn and setup's, so i rebooted
renamed the file and start again (i have the latest setup.exe).
Same thing, setup and DrWtsn quit unexpectedly.
I can send the bash.lst.gz to
Sorry, i renamed bash-files.lst.gz, not the correct bash.lst.gz file.
Once i did the right file, my install went all the way
through. I sent that file to dave, hopefully i unmangeled that email
correctly.
thanks so much all !!!
i CAN'T live w/o cygwin :)

I tried several serial port ioctl functions in - all gave the

I hope I'm doing something really dumb, any tips?
