Greetings, I am encountering problems getting KDE to start with Cygwin. I hope that you might be able to help me. Currently, I have Cygwin launching using the startxwin.bat file. Within this file, I use the simple scripts: run XWin run wmaker I have opened a bash shell prompt and followed the installation instructions, but they just do not work for me. Thus, I guess I have a series of questions: 1.) Obviously, I startup XWin in single window mode. Is this incompatible with KDE? 2.) I have run the instructions in each of the script files that you list in your installation instructions (not at the same time, of course -- different tries) one line at a time (taking into account that I am using single window mode) from the command prompt. The first script does not seem to accomplish anything. The second one turns the wallpaper within my running Cygwin instance black, but has no other discernible effects. Is there something obvious that I am doing wrong here? 3.) Is there a way to start KDE directly from a windows batch file, like I start Cygwin now? Any help is greatly appreciated!
