Thanks for everyone's help.  I downloaded the src rpms and the other
packages needed and built them with rpm -bb ....

I then upgraded the rpms with rpm -Uvh ...

The only problem is that I don't have a server?  Sort of a big deal huh?

How do I complie the SVGA server?  I cannot find a XFree86-SVGA*.src.rpm
file any where.  Is this something I need to do to the spec file?  Some
one mentioned this in another thread.

BTW I was able to get what appears to be a valid XF86Config file with
XFree86 -configure.

ANy help gratefully accepted.

Bret
