I want do download and insatll XFree86 3.3.5. the problem is there are 3 options in the 3.3.5/binaries folder which I think might be the one I need (Linux-apx, Linux-ix86-glibc, or Linux-ix86-libc5). I am running RH6.0. - any ideas? Regards Ranga

Then you know you'll get the right ones, including any patches RH may have included.

Redhat has what you want - niceley wrappe too :) RH is glibc based btw but follow this link instead: http://www.redhat.com/corp/support/errata/RHSA1999035-O2.html Find some mirror to download from - the RH ftp server is likely to be full after they released RH6.1 today K. -- Step by step guide to TrueType fonts under RedHat6: http://home.powertech.no/rkaa/Linux_and_tv.html#ttf
