Re: Issue after installing cygwin

Hello,

I have been using cygwin since long.
Recently I was trying to help my friend install cygwin on his desktop.

After a successful installation, the startxwin.bat was run to start
the workspaces.

However, after starting the workspaces, the green coloured "Window
Maker Preferences" icon does not appear in the workspaces.
The same setup was used to install cygwin on my machine and I could
use the "Window Maker Preferences" to configure my shortcuts.
But somehow this does not appear on my friends desktop.

Can't remember exactly, but, some time ago (>1 year), it happened to me to have problems with Window Maker in a new installation of Cygwin.


It seems to me that I was unable to access the WMaker preferences, anyway I solved creating a link or two: try to start Window Maker by hand from a terminal, so to have a look at its output/trace and whether it misses some file/directory.


Any idea????


Any help in making this icon visible is highly appreciated...

Regards,
Mansoorali.
