./configure --prefix=/usr/X11R6 and maybe also add --sysconfdir and other directory options to match your desired installation. ./configure --help has more information, the `INSTALL' file even more. I would warn against overwriting system files though, unless you really know what you're doing. Modern unices have packaging systems. :-) Cheers, Ralf
