Unfortunatly not. I've not received more information about the windows update. Maybe you can provide more information. > Also, I see that xfree86 seems to have been removed from setup.exe?

We changed the code base from xfree86 to xorg because it was easier for us to incorporate changes into the xorg code than into the xfree86 codebase. This was prativly not a big change since our first xorg release was very close to the xfree 4.4 release. The old packages were removed and are now only available as empty packages in ZZZRemoved to provide a clean update. bye ago NP: Skinny Puppy - I'mmortal -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
