[mythtv] Re: compiling mythtv frontend for cygwin

[Mario L]

Well that isn't a problem with myth, its with ld for cygwin.  I have
been hunting for ways to find a version of  QT that compiles and runs
properly.  I even ventured into the world of trying to compile it with
mingw, but realized no mysql support is there for mingw, but ODBC
support is, I'm looking more into the mysql driver for ODBC and how to
use it as well as watching for fixes for current ld.  Do what you can
with the vsync code ( as long as its not really dependent on the
window handle), and you could either link it against QT/X11 on your
machine, or if you don't want to go through that trouble, send it over
that way i'll link it here, and send it back to you.
