REPORT:
Installation of your binary distibution went fine, with one exception:
I installed as root having su'd from a user with umask 007. The install
script did not set umask, so all the directories and files were
unreadable by non-root users. Putting a line
umask 022
at the head of the script Xinstall.sh cured this.
One other item I have noticed:
xclock silently ignores settings for hands, foreground and highlight,
but does respond to background. Thus, invocation with the following
command line:
xclock -fg white -bg DarkSlateGrey -hd orange -hl yellow -update 1
results in a virtually unreadable clock on the local display.
However, running the same commandline on the same machine but over a
LAN, gives a nice-looking clock on the remote display running
XFree86-4.2.1

Roger Hill-Cottingham.
