RE: [ECOS] Trouble with eCos Config Tool

[andy at grapevinetech dot demon dot co dot uk]

Hi Ray,

I've just installed Cygwin 1.5.21-1 using the default installation configuration and got exactly the same error. After adding the libpng and tcltk packages (found in the libs category) to my cygwin configuration and ensuring that the cygwin bin directory was on my path everything worked as expected.

I hope this helps,

Andy..
