I'm not installing cygwin on my machine until the xorg problem is
resolved. One program I wanted to port to Cygwin is Rosegarden. Which
I can't because Xorg is not installing, so that means the kde port
won't work,. The KDE port won't work either. Get Harold Hunt back
here to fix this. The current maintainers have no idea what they are
doing.


Provide me with useful information and I'll take a look.

As I've said it was working for me until last week.  I've not received
any useful data which may help tracking this down.

Maybe you'll find a solution then it's all good.  If not then stop
insulting me or do it better.

Alex, I think the problem is with setup. Because when setup gets to
the fontserver, where 4 people are complaining so far, it stalls on a
readme file.



It works fine for me. Just tried it.


You've been reading the cygwin mailing list long enough to know that you
have not provided the slightest shred of useful data

Bobby, either provide useful information or just shut up.  Telling
everyone what you are going to do or not going to do and insulting
people is totally unproductive.

Do me a favor and don't even respond to this email.  Either provide some
details or just be quiet.  Useful details might be, for example, "ps -ef"
output.

OK Chris, here it is. The full report. Complete down to the readme file that it is hanging at.
Cygwin setup is at 97%
it says install xorg-x11-fscl-6.8.1.0-2
/usr/X11R6/share/doc/Cygwin/xorg-x11-fscl-6.8.1.0.README


its in a contiuous loop, not gettiing past this point.
