sorry, i'm over my head with this stuff. i assume 'cygcheck' is a shell
command? i can't open xterm, is there another way to execute this command?
this is the error i get trying to open xterm from windows explorer:

also noticed this:

btw, i canceled the hung install this morning. i think i'm going to
uninstall everything and try again.

thanks,
adam
