I have heard rumour that it is possible to run the KDE desktop under Cygwin and
wondered if anyone had any knowledge of this - experience or just a pointer to some

Hello all
Thanks, Christopher, for your answer
I do trust the wisdom of the archives, that's why I checked my whole hard
disk for any other copy of cygwin1.dll, and why I rebooted three times before
posting the message.
There definitely must be another reason for the problem.
Any suggestion?

Yep. look at KDO on Cygwin at sourceforge.net.
Works great. Currently BETA though.
You can download KDE 3.1.1

Hi,
Points taken. ddd requires autoconf 2.5x. It may well be that more work
is needed in the configure machinery to make it work with the most recent
versions of the autotools. Patches are welcome. For instance,
ddd/acconfig.h should be converted. Again any help is welcome.
