KDE Desktop Size is Larger than Cygwin/X Server Window

I am using Cygwin/X to access a KDE 3.3.0 desktop running on top of Debian
and a Colinux 0.6.2 Kernel.
The viewing area of the KDE desktop is larger than the visible screen area
within the Cygwin/X server window.
However, I am getting no scrolling bar that lets me move around the entire
KDE desktop.
Unfortunately, at least one application window when opened on the KDE
desktop is not completely visible
because I cannot see the entire KDE desktop.
Basically the KDE desktop is not being scaled into the Cygwin/X window and I
can also not scroll around the desktop.
What is the problem?
Is there a feature I need to enable for either desktop scaling or a
scrolling bar (similar to what VNC offers)?
I am getting the following error in the Cygwin/X console window when it
starts up:
Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/,
removing from list!
Could the above error message be the cause of the problem described above?
