RE: XF86Setup

I am getting the same error on a fresh Debian 2.0 install when I try to install X11. I've removed and reinstalled X twice (strictly xbase, vga16, olwm - nothing like thousands of extra packages or fonts or anything), tried checking main/contrib/non-free instead of the dists/frozen areas for package

Re: XF86Setup not finding where Xfree86 is installed

It is MUCH simpler to install the Debian packages, xbase plus a server, etc. On Sun, 10 May 1998, Keith wrote: > I have downloaded what I belienve to be all of Xfree86. I have followed > the instructions to the letter for installing Xfree86. When I try to run > XF86Setup I get an error saying tha

Re: XF86Setup not finding where Xfree86 is installed

Why do you don't use the deb packages and let install dselect this for you? A shortcut to gzip and tar would be tar xvpfz *.tgz -Egon On Sun, 10 May 1998, Keith wrote: > I have downloaded what I belienve to be all of Xfree86. I have followed > the instructions to the letter for instal
