Hi Karthik,
I did run the configuration tool.
But the problem now is that I deinstalled vmware tools and now the
normal X server (Xorg) does not come up.
When I start X (startx) the following message appears
[root@rbndtcgxwo601 log]# startx

Hi Adrain
If u have installed vmware tools - run the cmd vmware-config-tools.pl
and set the desired resolution and run startx , X will work fine .
Vmware Tools will have the updated drivers for OS specific.
Dont uninstall or reinstall Xorg .

In future you can use a simple method of getting a source code:
a) determining which rpm contains a file by a command rpm -qf
<file>
b) getting a source rpm with yum
Good luck!

Hi,
I've installed RHEL 4.7 on a ESX VMware machine.
[root@rbndtcgxwo601 /]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 7)
It worked quite nice until I installed the VMware tools.
So I uninstalled the VMware tools, but stil I can't get my
Xserver
running. The screen is flipping between the Cross and a screen
full of
vertical barrs and sometimes there is the blue ring (consisted
out of
balls) rotating. But still there is no X screen.
Now I thought to reinstall the X software (is it xorg??)
How can I do this with rpm or with up2date?
I couldn't get is to force install over the same X software.!!!
# rpm -qa | grep xorg
xorg-x11-Mesa-libGL-6.8.2-1.EL.52
