>Does the latest cygwin dll (1.5.24-2) work on Windows Vista (32 bit)? I use development tools from Altera which installs cygwin for the gnutools and their cross compiler. The version of the cygwin1.dll that is installed with their development tools is Product Version 1.3.23, Build Date 2003-03-27 18:48. I used this so far on Windows 2000. After installing the development tools on Vista I get the following error message when opening the bash shell of the SDK:

We don't support Altera or any other 3PP <http://cygwin.com/acronyms#3PP> here.

However, yes, Cygwin works on Vista.  If you want answers about how to get
Altera working, however, don't ask us.  Ask Altera.

Duh?
