Actually, I still think you should have used yum. Yum is akin to Debian's
aptitude and will resolve dependencies and download packages automagically.
I really don't feel you should be using RHE or Fedora without Yum
configured. Once Yum is setup properly--use Google or your Redhat, Redhat
support, or some of the Redhat community guides that I'm sure
exist--Vladislav provided the yum commandline that will install xephyr and
all required dependencies in his post to your message titled. I'm not sure
which Redhat your using, so I don't feel confident giving you specific
instructions myself--I've never used Redhat on a regular basis.
If you really don't want to setup yum, you'll have to manually track down
the required libraries on a site like rpmfinder.net. To start you off,
here's libXau[1]. Besure you grab the right one for your distribution.
Repeat with the next library. Yum would have done this for you.
