Hello,
Pardon if this is an easy one, but I've been looking at it for a few
days and haven't found an easy solution. If anyone can issue me a few
adroit pointers (or kicks), I'd be most grateful.
PROBLEM

I need to be able to build and run an OpenGL implementation from source

Andre,
I just came across your post regarding GLUI and gcc2/3 under Cygwin:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/27178/match=glui
Thank you for clarifying that.
Do you have any idea when the OpenGL package will be updated, and we can use
GLUI under gcc3?
Also, are there any hazards to
Progess [wait]
How long is the Progress [wait] step under what
conditions including CPU speed (mine is very slow, a 486/80)?
Less than 1 sec on my P4 1.2GHz. I think you should hear disc access
during
this phase. (I can't tell - 1GB of RAM allows a lot of disc cache :-) )
Mine is
(1) The point of having multiple mirrors is so that everyone won't hit the
same server, thus slowing it down. If we all said use THIS one, it's the
best...then everyone would shift to it, and it would shortly be the worst.
(2) What's fast for me won't necessarily be fast for you, because we're
If you follow these steps...

That's far from aesthetically ideal, but it's a decent default to customize
from.
OK, let me clarify - I guess what I would really like is a Cygwin-specific
*Unix* beginner's list. My desire is not to get rid of stupid questions,
since I think all my questions are probably stupid, but rather the
questions that are just over my head and make me feel like I will never be
I had the exact same problem with Cygwin CVS.
I think the problem is that NT's idea of perry doesn't match Cygwin's
definition of UID 1119. If you're on an NT Domain, have you done the
mkpasswd -u perry -d COMPANY_DOMAIN /etc/passwd? That's what fixed it
for me.

to,

to make executeable now.
This almost certainly isn't the right long-term solution, but if you just
want a quick fix, you might try this:
ziegm $ touch newfile
ziegm $ ls -la
This does that for me:
export PS1=\[\e]2;\h:\w\007\e[1;36m\]\h [\[\e[1;35m\]\w\[\e[1;36m\]] \u $
\[\e[1;33m\]
(Note that you need to have such a prompt on every computer you telnet to,
as well -- they're the ones that send the ANSI sequences to your terminal
client to set the title.)
Can anyone tell me what advantages this might have for running bash,
compared to the usual Windows command line window?
The ability to resize the window arbitrarily is the deal-breaker for me.
