I'm out of ideas. Maybe Chuck (the run and run2 > maintainer) can help you if you want to pursue this. Anyone else (Chuck?) have any ideas on this? As I can't open Emacs from the shortcut anymore, my current workaround is opening an rxvt window and running emacs from there. If it matters, I tried taking my shortcut's command line and altering it like this: c:\cygwin\bin\strace.exe -f C:\Cygwin\bin\run.exe -p /usr/bin bash -l -i -c "emacs -display 127.0.0.1:0.0 --debug-init" > strace.log I'm attaching that strace.log file. I looked at it, and I didn't see anything obvious. I still chuckle over the reference to "/home/corinna", but I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with this.
