I am trying to test KDE 3.4 (and Qt 3.3) on Cygwin.

I have installed the additional packages needed for KDE 3.4 and I even did a
complete re-install of all packages to ensure that I have a clean system.

when I start bash and enter 'echo $path'.  This is the path statement returned.

C:\cygwin>bash
bash-2.05b$ pwd
/
bash-2.05b$ echo $path
/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/qt/3.3/bin:/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/COMMON~1/GTK/2.0/bi
n:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/System32/
Wbem:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Support Tools/:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsof
t Visual Studio 8/Common7/IDE:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio
8/VC/bin:/usr/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Platform SDK/Include:/cygd
rive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Platform SDK/Bin:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Micros
oft Visual Studio 8/VC/lib:/cygdrive/e/livemedia-unix2/live/testProgs:/cygdrive/
c/Program Files/OpenVPN/bin:.

When I run my startup script for KDE.

bash-2.05b$ cd home
bash-2.05b$ cd "Ross MacGillivray"
bash-2.05b$ ls
startkde
bash-2.05b$ cat startkde
usr/bin/echo $path
usr/sbin/cygserver &
export CYGWIN=server
export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0
usr/X11R6/bin/XWin -multiwindow &
usr/X11R6/bin/xwinclip &
usr/X11R6/bin/xhost +
export SHELL=/bin/bash
opt/kde3.4/bin/kdeinit +kicker &

I get two windows error messages report that two dll's cannot be found.
The dll's are:  cygX11-6.dll and cyggt-mt-3.dll.

One DLL is in /usr/X11R6/bin and one DLL is in /opt/qt/3.3/bin

Both paths are in the path statement above.

What's going on here?
