Re: [PLUG] trouble with X


I have a RH7.1 copy for my personal use, but management is insisting that I get X working on the box we have now. Everything was going fine until I went to install XFree86-4.0.1-i386.rpm, and it asked me to install the libGL.so.1. I know it is located in another file, and I had already installed the XFree86-libs*** file, with no such luck. I guess I will continue to work on it until I find something that works.

Thanks for all your help.
Nick

Mandrake 8.0 will too, I would dump RH 7 every thing is borked on it. GCC
will not even build most things. Or at least get RH 7.1
