I had Cygwin with Windowmaker running just beautifully, then another
application came in and installed another xserver (which I've since
disabled) but now inside windowmaker, whenever I try to open up an Xterm
window the window opens but I get no bash prompt.
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).
