Dear Takmeng Wong,
I just responded to this group about attempting a Linux RedHat 7.1
port, and this is another system that I have on my list. I tried
several months ago to install Cygwin and XFree86, but didn't have much
luck with XFree86 (Cygwin seemed to be okay). My machine kept hanging
and I wasn't getting any work done, so I decided to wait until I could
upgrade my system.
The system upgrade has occurred, now I just need to find some free
time. :-)
If anybody wants to insert pearls of wisdom on a Cygwin/XFree86 port
of NCAR Graphics, I'm all ears!
Thanks,
