Is it possible to run a KDE app in cygwin?
I tried some of them, but I keep receiving the error message:
"QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display. Aborted (core dumped)".


Try the following commands from a Cygwin bash shell:

    XWin -multiwindow &
    export DISPLAY=:0.0

Then start your application as before.

Dave.
