first XFree86 4.2.0 rpms uploaded
Hi, the first XFree86 4.2.0 packages can be found here: ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/supplementary/X/suse73/4.2.0/ Only Rage128 is tested so far. Radeon should work now, you might need kernel 2.4.16 or later. Mach64 seems to work, but I havent testet it on the Powerbook and iBook. Matrox does not work right now. fbdev should work as usual. Download all rpms (maybe that way): wget -r -l 1 -A .rpm ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/supplementary/X/suse73/4.2.0/ Then install them: rpm -Uvh *.rpm Then run `ldconfig ; SuSEconfig`.

Hi, thanks for the fast RPM creation !! What about RPMs for 7.1 ? Or can I savely install the RPMs for 7.3 on 7.1, too ? I saw that for i386 they already made RPMs for all 7.x versions. Also, can you explain the relation between X 4.2.0 and certain kernel modules (e.g. what exactly is required, agp* ?, fb-radeon ?, what should NOT be in the kernel) Thanks a lot, S.
