Yes i just got it all working
i really think x4 is alot better than the x3 series
but the doco with it hasnt been updated, and i needed glibc 2.1.2 to
compile it
(rh6 has 2.1.1, but its easy)
I would really recommend AGAINST compiling it if your either
a) not incredibly pro with linux
b) havent compiled X before
c) dont know alot about X
d) get frustrated if it doesnt work after 6 hours of work
Having done it im open to questions.....
