You probably don't want any of those XFree86 4.1 is on the first CD You need the server, the font server (it has xfs in the filename), and the libraries and fonts. I believe they are XFree86 4.1.0-17 in their name. Mind you, this is on my desktop. Depending on your specific hardware, you mayneed some other files, but I think as of XFree86 4.x, all the servers are integrated into one. Hope I've helped evena little bit...:-) -- Lloyd Osten [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ #63460821 _______________________________________________ Newbie mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
