Hi,
I have downloaded and installed (with setup.exe) the GNOME-packages (those
in release/GNOME directory). (I have all CYGWIN installed).
It is not clear for me how I, now, have to use them.
(I have not desktop icons for GNOME, also is I have selected, from
setup.exe to have them: only Cygwin icon is present)
Should I run something? Should I have some GNOME-Desktop? How?
.... or the packages could be only usefull to create (build) applications?
Currently yes. Applications that don't need a full blown Gnome desktop should build (eg. GIMP, Dia, inkscape, conglomerate, sodipodi, gnumeric).
The http://www.gnome.org says that GNOME is a "Desktop & Developer
Platform". I have seen the "User Screenshots Gallery" at
http://ftp.gnome.org/...
It is very interessing!
Is it possible to have that with CYGWIN? How? Are the packages actually
present in CYGWIN sufficient?
There are some packages missing to run the desktop. These will be uploaded as soon as packaging is finished.
