I just installed Caldera Workstation 3.1 Sunday, and X links to
XF86_SVGA. 'rpm -qa | grep X' shows, among others, the following:

XFree86-4.0.2-11
XFree86-config-4.0.1-5
XFree86-devel-4.0.2-11
XFree86-fonts*-4.0.2-11
XFree86-xterm-4.0.2-11
XFree86-SVGA-3.3.6-13

/etc/X11 has only XF86Config-4, not XF86Config. /usr/X11R6/bin has no
XFree86. How do I get COL to use v4 of XFree86?
