For whatever reason X does not know WHICH Xserver to use. You need to
edit /etc/X11/Xserver and put the correct server name in place of

Netscape maintains its large cache in ~/.netscape/cache, which it

Hi,
You need the xbase package. Dselect will tell you what else xbase depends
on, so start off with that. Basically, you will need the xbase package,
an X server package, X libraries, fonts and a window manager; all of which
are in the X11 section.
Have fun. :)

Hi All!
I've checked ImageMagick 3.9.1 in RedHat 5.1, and it works OK.
Probably the reason of my problem is a bug in ImageMagick <= 3.8.2
