RE: SFU installed -> rxvt problems

[Peter Skjøtt Larsen <plarsen at starband dot net>]

While realizing that this list is not about SFU, closer examination reveals
that the dev environment in SFU 3.5 (and prior versions) is gcc and SFU
allows for Visual Studio to be invoked as well - e.g. $CC implies by default
the visual studio (command line) compiler. Don't pick the standard install
however, some useful things are not turned on by default!

Kind Regards
    Peter

I tried SFU.  Hated it. Going back to Cygwin.
It requires Visual C++.
I have that, but I don't like the fact that it really can't compile any of
my software. Only Cygwin and Mingw can. Visual Studio Too, but that's
because I want MP3 capabiilty on my songs. Robert

After I uninstalled SFU now, it works again;)  And I still have DISPLAY
defined in .bashrc.  Im starting rxvt directly with a shortcut, then rxvt
doesn't see the define in .bashrc until it has started, then bash is started
and .bashrc is sourced, so that isn't the problem here.

I also verified that DISPLAY wasn't defined as a global environment setting
during SFU installation.
