He's using RedHat; so it is better to use the rpms.  I tried using the
tarballs before I knew that and it means getting rid of the old rpms for
XFree86.  Then there is no indication of XFree86 in the rpm database which
confuses things as far as rpm keeping track of dependencies when loading
other rpms.  It really is not a good idea, especially for something as
central as XFree86.
