I have a Toshiba Tecra 8100. I have installed Accelerated-X v5.03 to achieve an X-windows environment. I am having some difficulty keeping the XFree86 packages at bay within dselect. I have loaded equivs but I can't accomplish what I want.
I would like to be able to install the gtk1.2-dev and other various X/GTK related programs. The problem is that all of these have dependencies of xlib6g, xfree86-common, etc. and won't install. I have tried using "Q", "D" and "=" commands in dselect to no avail. Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone else have an alternative X-server installed? How did you circumvent the dependencies? I don't want to start a flame war between Xfree86 and Accel-X or free software versus pay software. I would just like to have my laptop working efficiently. Please copy me in on your reply since I am not subsbribed to the list. Thank you. -Ian
