Hello! I see. Given your issues with Cygwin, I would then have suggested lodging a complaint with one of their user lists. Normally they can be quite helpful in resolving any number of problems. I have used both in building software for applications around here and given the peculiarities of my distribution I would say use what works best. But for my current project, it may not be possible to use uClinux for it, especially since ARM now has native support in the kernel. I'll see as I continue. -- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] "This signature was once found posting rude messages in English in the Moscow subway." _______________________________________________ uClinux-dev mailing list uClinux-dev@uclinux.org http://mailman.uclinux.org/mailman/listinfo/uclinux-dev This message was resent by uclinux-dev@uclinux.org To unsubscribe see: http://mailman.uclinux.org/mailman/options/uclinux-dev
