I am having a problem that I have seen reported before, but I didn't see a
resolution. I have cygwin installs on two machines, both XP SP2. This
problem occurs on one and not the other. I'm not even sure how to go about
debugging this.

The problem: I run octave from the command line, and it exits almost
immediately without an error. From previous postings, here is what I've
looked at:

/usr/lib/lapack is in the path (last item)

cygcheck -c octave reports that version 3.0.1-1 is okay.

cygcheck /bin/octave.exe  returns d:\cygwin\bin/octave.exe

octave -V and octave -x return nothing

echo $? returns 53

I have tried setting the cygwin environment variable to TTY, NOTTY, and
neither. (It is ntsec notty on the machine where octave runs successfully).

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling octave using setup.exe. 

Any suggestions for debugging this? I've attached my cygcheck.out. Thanks
very much for any assistance.
