Re: XFree86 for Cygwin (Good News)???


Geof,
You are right.  For the moment, almost everything working the way we want
it, therefore
I prefered to stay with Cygwin B20.1 released version.  Experimenting with
snapshot may cause
to revisit the xfree code from the beginning (I am just affraid.  i may be
wrong).
