Tom -- and the rest of you folks --
i followed Toms post from 22 Dec in which he describes how to upgrade X401 to X402.
ok, downloaded all the files Tom listed (and one more which i needed to satisfy
dependencys)
put them all together in a dir
executed "rpm -Uvh *"
no errors, seemed to go ok.
however, when i check my version of X is still reports 4.0.1
i was hoping this would clear up my display problems, but hasn't done a thing. i am
using the SiS640 and have heard it works better under the 4.0.2 version.
also XF86config and "XFree86 -configure" both result in a white screen with a black X
for the mouse curser, then lock up my system. had to power down to get out. the
XF86cfg however does work. i used that to set up X. still got the same bad video,
still reports version 4.0.1.
is there something else that i must yet do??
help
once again thanks & more thanks
