I did so, but it didn't help. IIRC, wrong permissions result in
error #1062 rather than #1053.
If I say "export CYGWIN=", does this switch to the most tolerant

Could it be that I installed too little? I tried to install as few
things as possible: Just the X server and sshd. However, I never
removed automatically selected packages.
Tschoe,
