First off, I'm running redhat's 7.2, and so what i did was an upgrade. 
 I opened gftp, and went to ftp.xfree86.org

I downloaded all the binaries for version 4.2.0, and then ran the 
install script.  It was actually as easy as they made it to be.  I 
backed up my previous version, and had to copy some of the directories 
back into the new /etc/X11 directory, such as the twm, and gdm 
directories.  


The only reason I got 4.2.0 was because of the trouble i had with 4.1.0. 
 The radeon driver they ship with it had problems.

I'm not sure of your system setup, but this is all i did.  I'm running 
on an i686 platform.

Good luck

Jeremy
