With more help from friends at #debian, I actually managed to get rid of the offending XFree86 files. I then finished the backport install according to James' instructions. In general, it seems to be working. But I have a few concerns: 1) I think that James and whoever is promoting his backpor

Hi, I'm using mostly "testing" and have XFree86 4.2.1 installed via apt-get. If i compile XFree86 4.3 from source, what's the easiest way to find all the compile options suitable for it to work well in a debian system, yet have it installed in /usr/local? -- To UNSUBSCR

Xfree86 4.3 confusion

Hello, A couple of days ago I installed woody with the bf2.4 kernel on my new fujitsu lifebook. I went ahead and apt-get dist-upgraded to 'testing'. At some point I then installed xfree86 to run my beloved ion wm. I must have been able to pull 4.3, since the lifebook needs the 'radeon' driver w

Hi all, Whilst trying to see if the Gnome 2.2. backport was conflicting with the XFree 4.3 backport that I was already using, I realised that my xlibs had been kept back and was still at v4.1. So I removed xlibs (and the many dependants), removed the Gnome line from my sources.list, did an apt-ge
