Hello,

-No, there are no missing files. 
- For example if you want to install the rpm 
XFree86-XF86Setup-3.3.5-3.i386.rpm
(- RPM helps system administratiors put things in standard places. And it
modifies the /etc/init.d/ files for you which can be handy but getting all the
depedencies RPMS like libtcl.so mannually is the one thing I hate RPMS and I
wish someone would fix that problem)

 - It mentions that you need  libtcl.so so
therefore assuming you do have another Linux box just type:-

-"rpm -qf  libtcl.so"  then it will show you what other RPM you need to
install first before you install XF86Setup-3.3.5-3.i386.rpm.
