I'm doing this right now... Perhaps this will fix my X11 problems (with xterm and emacs-X11) as well... Let's see... bunzipped... moved... stopped Cygwin servers... renamed /bin/cygwin1.dll... restarted servers... (they work)... Cygwin shell ... works... sent mail to myself from another machine and... it WORKS! The lock file has been removed from /var/spool/mail and the mail has been delivered. Wonderful. How about... xterm... yepp this works too, with readline and command completion, emacs-X11, yepp, shell process forked nicely, works. So many problems fixed with just this one little change! Thanks again, Gustav ________________________________ From: Pierre A. Humblet Subject: RE: exim-4.76-1 fails to remove lock from spooler on delivery Hi Gustav, [...] 1)Go to http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ 2)Download the latest cygwin1-XXX.dll.bz2 (perhaps ask Corinna for one that is known to work. In my experience most do.) 3)Bunzip it, chmod it to executable by all and place it in /bin. 4)Kill all Cygwin processes 5)From Windows (cmd or explorer) rename the existing cygwin1.dll to something else, and conversely rename the new cygwin1-XXX.dll to cygwin1.dll 6)Restart Cygwin In case of trouble reverse step 5. There is no downside risk.
