I think we have a major cultural divide (a chasm!) here. In other parts of the world, "mad" is used to signify "crazy", not "angry"; that's a pure Americanism. Pavel's just saying: - Here's something that's driving me *crazy* - Here are the symptoms - It used to work on WinNT. - Help! That's all he said, and he was really polite about it, too. Please go easy on him.. (At least Chris' comment was helpful, though it doesn't explain why it worked on WinNT and not on Win2K, unless Pavel was using some other setup on NT..) -- Shankar. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
