Cygwin OK on Vista?
« on: January 27, 2008, 02:51:58 PM »
I apologize if this has been asked and answered... searching didn't turn up quite what I was looking for.

It's a simple question... will Cygwin run OK under Vista? If not, what are the options for compiling under Vista?

Today's my last day on XP... my employer is forcing a new machine on me tomorrow.

Out of curiosity, don't you think this is something you should specifically be asking a Cygwin community?

Yes, it probably is. I'll take it elsewhere. Thanks.

Though as a rough answer, I'm pretty sure everything relevant to Rockbox compiling works.
