Questions about CygWin's XFree86 environment

[Tyler Regas]

Thanks for the tip. I'll try it. Of course, its a moot point now :) I woke up this

unecessary junk. CygWin went. Why do I need a Windows based solution 
when I can have the real thing :)

PS: Anyone have any thoughts as to when Mandrake 9.0 will be coming out?
