*** I am sorry - I thought the Subject line was obvious enough, but let me
spell it out - yes, I am using Tecra 9000 with a new installation of
Redhat 7.2. And, yes, if you don't mind, I'd still apreciate your
XF86Config-4... :-)

I wasn't aware of this work at all. I am assuming you are refering to Tim
Robert's webpage at http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html ?
