I seem to have managed to completely crash my cygwin installation :o(
After trying some of the recent snapshots I noticed KDE would not start.
So I tried with different snapshots (including the original cygwin1.dll)
a few times, rebooting and running rebaseall -v between tries.
Now neither KDE nor XWin will start at all, instead I get the following
message:
C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\XWin.exe (2400): *** cygheap version
mismatch detected - 0x61790000/0x1010000.
You have multiple copies of cygwin1.dll on your system.
Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility
and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should*
reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have
installed the cygwin distribution.
There are definitely no multiple copies of cygwin1.dll files on the
system. I have renamed the other snapshots something_else._dll and
searched through all disks just to make sure.
I have restored the original cygwin1.dll, rebooted and run rebaseall -v
(with no errors) any number of times but the results are still as above.
Running from a dos window still works but that's about it.
Cheers CV
