(See http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ) It is March 2003 currently. As the above log file message states rather clearly, your X server is 2 years old, which is older than 6-12 months listed above. >Kernel 2.4.2-2 >XFree86 Version 4.0.3 / X Window System 2) Both your kernel and your XFree86 are ancient. At a bare minimum, update your system to the latest kernel, XFree86 and other packages released by Red Hat since the 7.1 release. Your best bet is to upgrade to Red Hat Linux 8.0, or one of the other releases which will continue to be supported until the end of the year at least. -- Mike A.
