First off, thanks Jim for all the time and effort that has gone into
2.09prerelease.

I have installed it on a test machine and was able to get workstation to
boot fine. I like the one kernel approach.

The server I used is a RedHat 7.1, running KDE2.2. All our workstations are
configured to run apps locally.


Couple of points.

1. Where or what does one use the initrd-kit package ?
2. what is the relevance of the option-128 in the dhcpd.conf file ?
3. I am testing a touch screen workstation and had to hardcode the Driver
option & remove Protocol, ZAxisMapping & add options Type, MinimumX Y,
Maximum X Y

It would be nice to be able to customise the pointer options per
workstation, when creating the XF86Config file, those I suppose you cannot
cater for all things.

4. Ok, I am currently stuck on trying to get the xdm logon prompt. The X
Server starts fine and the touch screen mouse all works.

Just not log in prompt. I have seen from previous email dijests, others have
had similiar problems. I have checked the following and all looks ok. We
have a production system running 2.07 and I have been comparing config for
the xdm, with no luck.


Any pointers on this would be appreciated

Regards

Doug.
