You can download the Intel rpm from
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/contrib/i386/xforms-0.88-2.i386.rpm

Just install the xforms rpm, then install the xisp rpm.  Not that it
matters much, but RedHat provides a directory for RPMs at
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/.  However, /usr/tmp/ is less typing!

I presume that you are getting both xisp and ezppp for evaluation, as only
one is necessary.  I use xisp quite happily without any additional
utilities.  If you want ezppp instead of xisp, there is a rpm package in
the RedHat ftp contrib directory (as above).  Don't bother with the tar
file.

Good luck!
