Dai,
This post doesn't contain much more useful information than the previous
one. Please (re)read <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>, particularly the
part about attaching (as an uncompressed text *attachment*) the output of
"cygcheck -svr". Where do you get this problem (i.e., in the command
shell, in rxvt, in xterm, etc)? It would also help if you looked in
/var/log/setup.log to find out the previous version of Cygwin and vim you
had installed (you can simply run
for i in cygwin vim; do
grep "Installing.*$i-[0-9]" /var/log/setup.log | tail -2
done
and post the output).
Igor
