Hello,

I'm pretty new to Linux, so please forgive the
generality of my question. =)

How would I go about integrating compiled XFree86 CVS
code with a complete Linux distribution?  More
specifically I'd like to install XFree86 4.1.99.4 on a
Red Hat 7.2 system, which uses XFree86 4.1.0.  I don't
know too much about the X windows system and thought
that if I were to just install the new version of X
over the old one, then I might run into somekind of
incompatibility issue.

So far I've just backed up and removed /usr/X11R6 and
ran 'make install' w/X 4.1.99.4; things are working,
but I don't have any of my /usr/X11R6/bin programs. 
Is there another approach besides installing over the
old X windows files?  Would that even work?

Alan
