Gygwin and Quartus should work nicely together. Are you sure you try to
start 'real cygwin' from Cygwin installation directory not from Quartus
installation.
My cygwin.bat says:
@echo off
C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
bash --login -i
I have cygwin1.dll under C:\cygwin\bin.

I used to use Cygwin, but when I installed Quartus II and Nios, my local
installation stopped working; it couldn't find cygwin1.dll. Rather than
fight that, I remove my local installation of it, uninstalled Quartus II
and Nios II and reinstalled everything. To no avail the binaries under
C:\altera\kits\nios2_60\bin\nios2-gnutools\H-i686-pc-cygwin\bin doesn't run.
Incidently, the Nios II Dev Board, reference manual seems out of sync.
In "Appendix B: Restoring Factory Configuration, step 1" the directions
to launch the SDK Shell doesn't match the menus -- in fact, there aren't
any SDK Shell under the Altera menu.
I'd be much obliged for any help here.
Thanks,
Tommy
