I assume you have installed kde 3.1.4 ? If not please upgrade to it. 

This problem is caused by the cygwin's fork implementation and the windows 
ordering scheme of loaded dll's. To avoid such issues the 
scripts /opt/kde3/bin/krebase_... were introduced in kde 3.1.4. They are 
tuned for operations on w2k and XP-Professional. I assumed also for XP Home, 
so I'm wondering why this fails. 
To solve this problem, some manual intervention may be necessary.  After such 
a fault, please kill all kde applications and try the following commands	

krebase -l /opt/kde3/bin/cygkonq-4.dll

Please reports the result of the above command in any way. 
 
ipc-daemon2 &
Xwin &
kdeinit & 

krebase -b 0x06000000 /opt/kde3/bin/cygkonq-4.dll
kdesktop &

If kdesktop fails again try another address for example 

krebase -b 0x11000000 /opt/kde3/bin/cygkonq-4.dll
kdesktop &

krebase -b 0x14000000 /opt/kde3/bin/cygkonq-4.dll
kdesktop & 

... You max check some more addresses between 0x06000000 and 0x40000000 

Please reports if any of this case works, so we can add this to the scripts. 


Ralf
