KDE 3.1.4 installation on Cygwin -- Suggestions

[Iqbal Javid]

I have installed Cygwin and  KDE 3.1.4 packages on Windows XP system.  I followed the setup process explained
with the KDE 3.1.4 release.  The steps are given here:
1. install required cygwin packages.
2. download the packages and unpack them into the cygwin root
3. rebase all dll's to avoid cygwin remap problem 
	<before running rebaseall make sure, that no cygwin process is running>
	
	1. create file list

		find /opt/qt/3.3 /opt/kde3.4 -name '*.dll' >/tmp/files.lst

	2. close *ALL* cygwin processes 
	
	3. open a windows command shell (cmd.exe) from Start/Run and goto cygwin installation root 

		cd c:\cygwin 
		bin\ash bin/rebaseall  -b 0x61000000 -v -T tmp/files.lst

4. start kde 

  1. display only kicker (uses Xwin multiwindow mode)

		at first create a simple startscript 

		cat >~/startkde
                export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0
		/usr/sbin/cygserver &
		export CYGWIN=server
		export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0
		xwin -multiwindow -clipboard &
		xhost +
		export SHELL=/bin/bash
		kdeinit +kicker &

	[press ENTER, then CTRL-D] 

  	chmod a+x ~/startkde

	no you can start kde with 
	
		~/startkde &

 stop kde - run  

		kdeinit_shutdown 	
		
	then close the bash window
 

  When I execute the startkde script, following output messages are generated.     
  Can someone explain the reason for the startkde failure  and suggest steps to correctly 
  setup the KDE?.  Thanks in advance.
