You should really start using nahant-list instead of redhat-list since nahant is dedicated to RHEL 4 questions. Looking at my Fedora Core 3 system which also has the Xorg stuff, you should be looking for packages that have xorg instead of XFree in their names. Similarly, the log file is /var/log/Xorg.0.log. These are the xorg packages I have installed on Fedora Core 3. You'll have slightly different names but it should give you the general idea.

I think it's installed but it doesn't like your X configuration. This can happen if your monitor or graphics card are incorrectly configured. Also, please trim your posts. I think I just deleted a half dozen copies of the list footers. -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
