Re: [Fwd: Can't run XGGI on Cygwin 1.0] - Progress!

[Steve Kelem <kelem at adaptivesilicon dot com>]

I moved my / directory from G:\Cygwin to G:, fixed all references in the registry,
and now XGGI works!
I get an X-looking window with an X cursor in the center.  When I move the mouse to
the window, the NT cursor disappears and the X cursor doesn't move.
