Xfree86 install makes wininit not working

Hi,

I wanted to update my existing Xfree86-4.2.0-1
installation.
So i choose a "default" Xfree86 installation.
All files downloaded correct,
and i was told that everything was ok.

But at reboot,
a 65497 bytes wininit.ini wants to rename/rewrite 627
files, and no one is replaced (wininit.ini isn't even
renamed to .bak)

This damn thing makes windows write "Please wait while
updating your configuration files..." every time
I reboot if I don't rename the file.
could the fact that wininit.ini is too big make it
fail ?

I'm running it under Windows Me.

And here it begins...

Cygwin/XFree86 has its own mailing list:  cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com.

If you want help you should ask the experts.

I've redirected this message there.
