The archives on vernam.cs.uwm.edu have a wealth of Mach386 binaries
and stuff.  XFree86 is in i386_mach/X.

Has anyone gotten it to work?  It seems that the 'rgb' color database
is missing from the .lib distribution, and the binary program ("rgb"?)
to generate them is not in the XFree86 binaries either.  The rgb
database from X486 doesn't work for XFree86, as far as I can tell.

If anyone has gotten XFree86 up and going (with colors), please let me
know.  If the rgb.pag and rgb.dir files are indeed missing, could
someone please encode and post them, or put them on vernam?

Thanks!
-Steve
