How do I run it?

[Harold Hunt]

Perry,

You're reading the ancient FAQ.  You need the Cygwin/XFree86 User's Guide
and the newer FAQ located at:

http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/

To better design our site, can I ask how you happened to completely miss the
documentation page while still finding your way to the old FAQ?

Thanks,

Harold

>               A required .DLL file, CYGWIN1.DLL, was not found.

> That file does exist, in C:\cygwin\bin.  Rebooting does not help.
> What part of the installation process did I miss?
