New Xfree User Question

[Martin Bosticky]

Dear XFree crew,
 
can I add that i also have the same problem and that I tried to get the
latest cygwin snapshot as described in a recent email and it didn't help.
Perhaps i have missed something during configuration i suppose but the bash
shell seems to be working fine. I am running Windows 2000
 
Martin.
