Hello,

I think no really problem to compile mtx, but how can I

is connected?

AFAIK, you need to be a member of the debugger users group (or be an

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out why Cygwin build things so much slower on one
computer I have. We're talking about more than 3 times slower on a
computer that ought to be a bit faster (Athlon64 at 2.2-2.4 GHz,
compared to a Pentium M at 1.8 GHz).
After digging into strace logs a bit, it seems
You can use "net use lpt1: printername" to map a network printer to
a local parallel port. Then define a new printer on the local machine
that is connected to lpt1: Then use the local share name (not the
original network name) by setting the PRINTER environment variable.
This works with l

But you don't mean to cross-compile: you mean to natively compile something

So you should be using --target instead of --host.
