How about "rpm -e"ing X<everything> and then installing the appropriate
XFree86 stuff. Here's what I have on one system:
XFree86-libs-3.3.1-14
XFree86-3.3.1-14
X11R6-contrib-3.3.1-1
Xconfigurator-3.25-1
XFree86-100dpi-fonts-3.3.1-14
XFree86-75dpi-fonts-3.3.1-14
XFree86-devel-3.3.1-14
XFree86-S3-3.3.1-14
Presumably, you would have the S3V instead of S3 on the last one.
I've never been able to make Metro-X work on either RH 4.x or RH 5.0 on any
system and friends have had the same experience.
