XFree86-server-4.3-5mdk.ppc.rpm is what I have here. Yes, you can get just the server package. find a 9.1 ppc mirror and grab it. Since it's pulling from /var/cache, it doesn't appear to be using the CD media. -- Stew Benedict -- MandrakeSoft
cups & netatalk startup order
Suggestion: it seems that CUPS will not see AppleTalk printers unless netatalk is running first. I changed the order for starting these up at boot time so that netatalk starts before cups, and now it sees the printers without having to restart cups. this made it possible to use an old laserwriter 4/600 with a localtalk to ethernet bridge (farallon ethertalk). so you could make life easier if this was the default order at install time, since this whole thing is non-obvious to newbies (as is changing the startup order). -i

(y/N) if I choose y(es) the system says installing but it hangs after a few pair of seconds. OK, I supposed that probably the media was damaged so I made a new CD but it fails too. What do I have to do? Download the complete CD again or can I download just the XFree86 server? Again, thanks a lot... __ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
