That is where I have it installed. I canot help with ILLEGAL_INSTRUCTION... unless I know what exactly you did and what exactly crashed??? I have it installed and compiled XFree86 3.9.16c DEV SnapShots plus OpenDX 4.0.9, all works just fine for me and a bunch of other applications from B20.1 I migrated to Cygwin 1.0 using pgcc-2.95.2... Since I am not a GCC expert, therefore I HAVE a warning on my URL that YOU WILL BE BETTER OFF WITH MUMIT KHAN'S GCC distributions..... Make sure gcc from pgcc do not pick headers from gcc-cygwin-19xxxx. PGCC I compiled for myself, it works for my work, I put it there to share but absolutely unsupoorted. Suhaib BTW, if you downloaded PGCC 2.95.2 on Monday, then you need to download it again. I updated binaries yesterday, because gcc.exe in first binary distribution of pgcc for cygwin v 1.0 had problems. > -----Original Message----- > From: cygwin-owner AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com > [mailto:cygwin-owner AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com]On Behalf Of David Case > Sent: Thursday, November 04, 1999 12:14 PM > To: cygwin AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com > Subject: question about pgcc-2.95-cygwin-v-1.tar.gz > > > > Hello: > > I have Cygwin v1, and downloaded > pgcc-2.95.2-cygwin-v-1.tar.gz from > http://siddiqi.webjump.com.
