Yaakov,

I was able to get it all working on another fresh install.  I followed the directions at

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=468DAADF.3080407%40users.sourceforge.net

In particular, I did
  • Did basic install from kernal.org with X11 and other packages.
  • Did a download from ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/cygwinports (made sure kernal.org was not selected too) to the local disk without an install.
  • Edited the "setup-timestamp" on line 5 of the setup.ini file to have the current time of "date +%s" using vi.
  • Did an setup.exe update from the local disk.  This accessed both the kernals and ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/cygwinports downloads.
  • Looked at the "cygcheck -d -c" output to see which packages still needed to be installed and installed them by checking the "keep", selecting the packages I wanted, and installing them.
  • Had to do a ./rebaseall to get it to work after I installed some more packages from kernal.org
Thank you for the help.  The Cygwin Ports software is great.  Thank you for it.

Michael
