I have followed the install instructions including the 'rebaseall -v '
command.

I have deleted and re-installed both Cygwin and KDE with the same problem
re-occurring.

I have done a CYGCHECK and it shows all packages properly installed.

I have followed the problem resolution steps in the FAQ, with no success.

X works under cygwin, I can get Wmaker to run ,along with the usual
Xclock/Xcalc etc.

The hardware is a 3.2 Gh Pentium 4 running windows XP with 1 gig memory,
Nvidia FX 5600GO card with 128 MB

Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Sidney
