Thats pretty easy
1 - no Easy Urpmi is a project launched by Nanar from the plf contributors. He
usually is available at #mandrake and #mdk-cooker on irc.freenode.net
2 - all you have to do - again - add yourself the updates mirror as a source
for urpmi with the Easy Urpmi. Then you just run 'urpmi --update Xfree86'
This should use the updates media and bring all the dependencies of the
XFree86 packages with it. it will ask you about confirimng the installaion -
decide if you want all the deps or not.
