X and Fluxbox :: How-to install XFree
You go on the internet with that box, I assume.
X uses similar sockets to what connects you to the internet to creat the graphical environment.
When you allow X to run as a user, and go on the internet, you are allowing anyone who wants it full access to your PC.
Like I said.
baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.

Talking of xfree86.... does anyone have a Via Epia board they've got running yet... I don't know enough about linux to get it going - ie. what to do with their binary driver if it works, or how to run the source if I need to.
http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=2 has an option:
Xfree86 (not distribution specific)
Which gives you the binary and source zip files.
I can't tell from the script they run where to put the files (just modprobe to get it running once its done?) I know it won't run though - it just checks whether it has redhat, suse, mandrake.
