I am the (un)happy owner of a Dell Latitude C400 and am still waiting to get XFree to work. (I have tried the xi Graphics driver, but this does not seem to work when I close the lid, and this is of course unacceptable.) Looking into the archives of i830 discussions I notice that Mike Harris should have a working set of XFree rpms available. This was unfortenately removed in october or something last year. Anyway, I visited <http://redhat.ifsic.univ-rennes1.fr/rawhide/RedHat/RPMS/> (or another rawhide mirror) and downloaded all the files that began with 'XFree-' (which meant 30 files) and tried the following on my RedHat 8.0 stationary computer (just to check): rpm -Uvh --test *.rpm error: Failed dependencies: kernel-drm = 4.2.99.2 is needed by XFree86-4.2.99.3-20021230.4 freetype >= 2.1.3-4 is needed by XFree86-libs-4.2.99.3-20021230.4 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3.2) is needed by XFree86-libs-4.2.99.3-20021230.4 /usr/bin/ttmkfdir is needed by XFree86-syriac-fonts-4.2.99.3-20021230.4 libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.3.2) is needed by XFree86-tools-4.2.99.3-20021230.4 /usr/bin/ttmkfdir is needed by XFree86-truetype-fonts-4.2.99.3-20021230.4 /usr/bin/ttmkfdir is needed by XFree86-xfs-4.2.99.3-20021230.4 rhpl >= 0.60 is needed by redhat-config-xfree86-0.7.1-3 /usr/bin/ttmkfdir is needed by (installed) ttfonts-ko-1.0.11-21 Suggested resolutions: XFree86-font-utils-4.2.0-72.i386.rpm (Strangely, the XFree86-font-utils _is_ a part of the rawhide, but does not include the file /usr/bin/ttmkfdir. Removing this file made it better, but still a lot is missing.) What _other_ files should I include? Or do I completely misunderstand the meaning of rawhide?
