Woah... Acording to RedHat advice, you may be able to rpm -U to install
and use the XFree86 4.1.0 RPMS distributed for RH 7.2.

You know what CVS is? It's where developers maintain a central repository
of newly developed code. Don't expect magic from it.
Especially of you haven't got anything you compiled to work right; you're

Messages to newbie are Reply-To: munged; any question you post here will
likely be only directed back to the list.
Unless you're prepared to follow the archives on the web, looking for an
answer to your mails, you should really be subscribed...
Although for trying the CVS code, you probably should follow xpert as
