I got that,

in XServer Settings:

Startup -> Set Window Mode List to Single
Screen  -> Screen Size to 800 x 480 and X depth to 16

It Works!

Thanks,

Did you do a "# yum update" or "$ sudo yum update" before  the yum install
command? If that doesn't help, then you're missing whichever repository
contains xephyr. It's extremely rare to find something in DEB but not RPM.
The reverse is much more common.

It is, apparently, in the FC6 repositories, at least[1]. Here's a link to
that RPM[2]. From what I can tell, it's not in any of the RHEL repositories.
At least you may be able to resolve the dependencies using "yum install
library-name" use "yum search query" to see if package query exists in your
repository set.

I have added a stanza to yum.conf that points to a directory on my

machine where I have placed a (dummy) header.info file.  yum finds the
header.info file, but of course complains about its format.  So I now
have to know the format to put in the header.info file.  (I just want to
write code!)  I'm searching the Internet and have learned that later
versions of yum no longer use the header.info file.  They now use xml.
Of course, I would still have to know the format of the xml if there is
no public repository for xephyr that is compatible with yum (meaning an
rpm repository I assume).

what about alien?



That, or you can just get the Xephyr package for your system. If you have
yum setup, I am sure it is in one of the repositories. Otherwise, you can
search for the RPMs you need on something like rpmfinder.net
