HI, Thank you, I followed the procedure of installation of Xfree86 4.2 step by step , but unformtunitly, The last step, install the driver, with dpkg -I *deb it failed and got following error massage:
Unpacking replacement drm-trunk-module-2.4.20-ben10 ... Depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-ben10/kernel/drivers/char/drm/gamma.o I noticed that when I did Apt-get install x-window-system-core x-window-system The version of x-window-system is 4.1.8 or something like that Is it the reason? How can I get x-window-system 4.2 ( if it exests)? Any ideas?
