[newbie] curious X information

2001-07-04 Thread Terry C

I am getting conflicting information concerning the
version of X I'm running, and the color depth. When I
bring up X-Server - KDE Control Module it tells me
that I am running XFree86 3.3.6 and a 24 bit color
depth. If I run XFree86 -version in a terminal it
tells me that I am running XFree86 4.0.1. I tend to
believe the info from running XFree86 -version, but
