X11SDKForMacOSX.dmg.bin) at http://www.apple.com/macosx/x11/. this installs the rest of the X11 files. (the headers specifically) then do 'apt-get install system-xfree86' this time it will allow you to install it. I hope this works 4 u.

I tried that last night before bed figuring that apt-get would resolve any issues that I might have. I got the same type of errors. The console dumps that I gave you via email were reflections of FinkCommader's output. According to FC the install system xfree86 is archived. If I attempt a forced remove it tells me that it is not installed, so it cannot be removed. The way I see it is Apple's X11 installed SOME FORM of Xfree86, it's just that fink doesn't officially "see" it, so it wants to install it's brand of XF86, but cannot.Am I seeing things properly? According to the docs, I needed to install JUST "system-xfree86" as a placeholder for fink to work its magic. For reasons that are beyond my Linux noob status I cannot understand why this package will not install. Can I tell fink to use what is there? Scott
