 Hallo !

 You hit wrong mailling-list. This list is about cygwin,
 a unix emulation layer on top of MS-Windows.
 It is not about Linux or any other Unix.

 Try a general Linux list or the linux kernel maillinglist for
 linux questions. Note: I do not know if these lists require
 subscription or which one is the right one!

 Again, Cygwin != Linux.
 For KDE, look for a kdevelop or generic kde list at www.kde.org.

 You clearly should go to a linux kernel list. And: Don't even
 think of doing cross-developpment from cygwin to linux-kernel-stuff.
 Use a native linux box.

 For general configure and autoconf/automake stuff go to
 <http://www.amath.washington.edu/~lf/tutorials/autoconf/> or to
 <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/>
