Re: `help' Compliling error - Can't find libXxf86vm - cygwin - TORCS-1.3.4

Hi

First, I have never compiled TORCS on cygwin, there are Windows native 
project files available (which you can use with the "free" Visual Studio 
Express Editions with some 5 minute adoptions, see README). Nontheless, 
lets see...

configure:5948: g++ -o conftest.exe -g -O2 -Wall -fPIC 
-fno-strict-aliasing -O2 -DUSE_RANDR_EXT -DGL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES 
conftest.cpp -lXxf86vm  -lXmu -lXi -lXt -lSM -lICE -lXext -lX11 -lm  >&5
conftest.cpp:1:0: warning: -fPIC ignored for target (all code is 
position independent)
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/4.5.3/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: 
cannot find -lXxf86vm

 From that I guess that you linker is not able to find the library, 
maybe some of the configure related linker options could help (e.g. 
something like --x-libraries=/usr/lib/). Run ./configure --help for the 
list of options.

Here I explained my approach to nail down such problems (just in case 
you are interested):

Best regards
