Why are you asking about this here rather than using the resources
at the web site where you downloaded the package?
because I didn' t find any resources for my problems
in that site.

There is a mailinglist which may be more useful for your problems:

Yeah, probably.
I have to work so I don't have so much time to search for pages
that are not in evidence.

If you find that the solution to my problems

I did not find a solution for your problem.  I went to the project's
site and saw a link called Forum.  That would point you to the place
where you should ask questions.  This has already been pointed out to
you.

[newbie] trouble with cygwin-X and cygGNOME2

2004-04-22 Thread Alessandro Lendaro
I'm tryin' to run GNOME2 on cygwin-X on W2000 Server.
The cygwin - dll is the latest available.
But I get a runtime error sayin' it's impossible to find the 
cygfontconfig-1.dll
I've checked and it seems I'm missing that file, though I did installed 
X11 following
step-by-step the instructions in the CygWin-X user guide.

Plus, anyone has a good tutorial on how ti install and get GNOME 2 
working on cygwin-X ?
I must search the ml- archives...?

Thanx to everyone, especially those who made cygwin a reality

Many thanks Alexander, but you apper to not acknowledge my problem.
Asid from the font dll I'm missing, I'd like to have a tutorial on how 
to install GNOME2
(via cygwin setup.ex or other way) but there's nothing alike on the 
sites you mentioned.

Bye.
