If I try to install tuxracer from 7.3 it is asking for some libraries of
which libtcl.so.0 I can not find anywhere.
Chromium is asking as well for several libraries which I can't find at all
except for zlib....
Doing ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver I see that there is a library
libcrypt.so.1
which is being asked by chromium and I cannot see on the install CDs of RH7.3.

There is no glibc or is it the same as libc.

Answers:
A. I found it only in xsceensaver, tuxracer and chromium which might not
exclude others I have not tried. Gnucash, gnumeric, mozilla, opera,
staroffice, Xephem all worked with no problem.
B. My mainboard is P6STMT with a SiS630ET chipset which includes integrated
built-in video, audio, networking and communication capabilities. X server
??? I guess there was no change.
C. When the keybord locks the system seems still to be running. In chromium
the mouse arrow can still be seen moving yet does not respond to clicking and
the chromium background music continues playing. In xscreensaver blank
screen,
no mouse movement to be seen, time announcement still working. In tuxracer
all blank, no music, nothing.
I can't answer the other questions since I am scared to reinstall RH7.3.
There is no LAN.
