 Note that a QT you build for Cygwin will be an X11 app, so you'll need
 to have an X11 server running in order to use it.  It won't have a
 Windows GUI like the MinGW flavor.

I've tried to build the QT linux package, it could not find X11 event. I think I have installed X11, but I did not running X11 server. It is too much to using X11 server on window. Can the QT window package be compiled under Cygwin alternatively?

you can install X under cygwin together with a small window manager.


You must also install the X sources - or at least the headers - if you want to compile any X applications.
