Is there any way I could get help with Xfree86. I've downloaded it, and obviously clicking myDSL doesn't do much. Help anyone?

1. view the content of the file: /etc/sysconfig/xserver
2. copy the config file that match your sysem from /home/dsl/XFree86_config_files/ to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
3. copy /home/dsl/XFree86_config_files/.xserverrc_for_XF86 to home/dsl/.xserverrc
4. exit fluxbox
5. type exit (at console to start xserver again)

6. add: /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 to the filetool.lst.
