Re: Xwin.exe application failed to initialize errors with KDE

[Harold L Hunt II]

Reginald,

Follow Chris's suggestion about setting the flags on the files.

If that doesn't work, I once helped a user install KDE on Cygwin/XFree86. I don't know why, but for some reason that user felt the need to copy about five random Cygwin and KDE dlls into \WINNT\SYSTEM32. His system was giving roughly the same errors and failing to start Cygwin/XFree86. I started poking around, found those DLLs, removed them, and everything worked fine.

Point being: try to remember if you copied any DLLs anywhere and delete those extra copies. You did get the KDE package that replaces a few of the XFree86 DLLs with SHM-enabled versions, right? That package is essential.

It's in the proper place.

please check if you have more than one cygwin1.dll
installed on your system (search all drives for this file).
If you have more than one of these libraries delete
all _except_ c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll (if you've installed
cygwin in c:\cygwin)
