RE: Broken upgrade, startxwin.bat gone?


Thanks Marco. I got that sinking feeling when the scripts disappeared
from /usr/X11/bin. Particularly as my boss was standing right behind me
when my upgrade appeared to break my working Cygwin/X system. He hates
open source, and thought it was funny. Now I can tell him it was
something like the documentation not keeping up with new developments...
or something.

For the record, as I write this, my installation is back up and running
with a Motif window manager.

local way to find it

$ find / -name "startxwin*"
/bin/startxwin.bat
/bin/startxwin.sh
/usr/bin/startxwin.bat
/usr/bin/startxwin.sh


the same is available on cygwin search
