Looking for any ideas. Installed Brandens pre-packaged debs then used 'apt-get -b source' to get and compile from the sources. The following is the failure log, note the (EE) lines stating a server/module version mismatch.
Also, why does my server still report a Release date of 2001/4/26? Version 4.0.99 - does the deb not set up /etc/alternatives correctly? (Yes, I am a non-programmer, this is my home machine). Please CC: to me as I am not subscribed to the list. I have too many other lists to keep up with right now. Gerald This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way.
