Hi everybody,
finally I found out that I've XFree86 4.1.0 using the command XFree86 -version so I downloaded the correct (Hope so!!!) driver!!! What I'd like you to tell me is if I have only to extract the Tar (see the attach) into X11R6 directory or I also must compile something or modify some config files?
Thank you.
Regards,
Ugy

I believe XFree86 -version will always answer you 4.x.x since XFree86 IS X 4.x.x I would rather
try X -verson
