Hi,
I just installed the new version of Cygwin-Xfree86. There is a small
incompatibility between mkfontdir and the X-Server.
mkfontdir writes fonts.dir ending with CR/LF(DOS-style), but the X-server
expects only LF (Unix-style). The X-server aborted: "fixed not fount".
After emoving the CR from the file everything was OK.
By the way, in june I reported problems with XFREE and DECTERM
(xterm on VMS-Systems): Decterm aborted with "division by zero" error.
The problems disappeared between July 20th and August 21st, when I was
on holliday.
