Cygwin problems under Vista

[Vinod Gupta]

I see that quite a few people have experienced problems running cygwin 
and applications like XFree86 server under Windows Vista. We have been 
using Cygwin under XP for may years and would love to continue using it 
under Vista. I will appreciate suggestions to the following questions:

1) Some people have suggested running rebaseall under ash. I tried it 
and it helps. Shall I be required to rebaseall every time there are new 
versions of DLLs released? Why not make it a part of cygwin installer?

2) It seems there is no reliable fix for XFree86 and people have 
suggested Xming which works fine for me. While XFree86 was integrated 
with Cywin's main installer which was a huge advantage. Is there any way 
to replace XFree86 by Xming so that only Xming packages are 
installed/updated.
