Hi
I am experiencing grave problems installing X11 using fink's fink commander.
1. Mac OS 10.2.8 running on a G4 400Mhz installed Fink 0.6.2 trying to run
xfree86 4.2.1.1 and 4.3.0. I have Mac OSX developers package installed.
2. I installed xfree86 4.2.1.1 and after the install and reinstall it gives
this message:
Failed:
This package must be compiled with GCC 3.3, but you currently have 3.1
selected.
To correct this problem, run the command:
sudo gcc_select 3.3
I have run this command from Fink Terminal update option.
I get the following message:

/usr/X11R6/bin/startx: line 49: syntax error near unexpected token `'''
/usr/X11R6/bin/startx: line 49: ` XCOMM '' required to prevent cpp from
treating "/*" as a C comment.'
3. I have tried to download xfree86 direct and cannot install X11 from that.
I have tried to follow all the instructions on the fink help page.
4. I wish to have X11 to run openoffice and other open source programs on my
system.
Thanks for the help - apologies for my lag of knowledge!
Take care
Steve
