You've probably already received messages about this before, but just making sure. I run GNU/Linux, and when I updated to 4.2.99.3 on this other Red Hat 8 system, the login manager no longer works. I have to boot into init 3, and was only able to get X to successfully launch after modifying xinitrc.
I'm going to switch distros shortly, partly because of this problem (that and RH doesn't support KDE well, and isn't as standards compliant as I'd like), but in the mean time I figured I'd might as well send in this feedback. I know a lot of Linux users run Red Hat, and thought I'd make sure you know that RH's xdm modifications cause problems with XFree86. It may be just upgrading X in general on RH 8, as I've only tried upgrading to a pre-release. If there could be some information regarding this (i.e a work-around or something) on the site, I'm sure it would help a lot of RH users who want to upgrade XFree86. I hope I've helped in some way. I love the kick-ass new features btw :) |_0rcl_A5C|| , , / \ ((__-^^-,-^^-__)) `-_---' `---_-' `--|o` 'o|--' \ ` / ): :( :o_o: "-" "Free as in freedom..." _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
