The fact that you did the binaries, might explain why mine did not work. I compiled the source and the ATI radeon driver doesn't appear in the list of drivers. Now I need to recover from the mess I've created for myself, like not backing up the original thinking it was going to work.

First off, I'm running redhat's 7.2, and so what i did was an upgrade. I opened gftp, and went to ftp.xfree86.org I downloaded all the binaries for version 4.2.0, and then ran the install script. It was actually as easy as they made it to be. I backed up my previous version, and had to copy some of the directories back into the new /etc/X11 directory, such as the twm, and gdm directories. The only reason I got 4.2.0 was because of the trouble i had with 4.1.0. The radeon driver they ship with it had problems. I'm not sure of your system setup, but this is all i did. I'm running on an i686 platform.
