Unable to launch openGL application on cygwin/X server from S un S olaris OS

[Alan Hourihane]

There's an old copy of some work I did a while back for XWin_GL.exe. You might want
to try that. It's at http://www.fairlite.demon.co.uk/XWin_GL.exe.

I should clean up what I have and get it committed at some point.

Let me know if you get chance to try it and any results you get.

Alan.
