Problem with xdm on cygwin ManageSession dies...

2003-04-02 Thread Steve Z
To Cygwin, I have been using cygwin for a while and I think this is a great tool. I installed KDE on my XP box and it works great and adds a lot. KDE only works on the XP and 2K boxes. Not on any of my 98 boxes. I have been experimenting with xdm however and I am running into some problems. XD

KH, What is am saying is that COM, by itself, is something you have to sit down with for a few months before you even realize if what you are suggesting is possible. No amount of pointers from other people are going to help. Similarly, X is something that you have to sit down with for a few
