Steve,

I am certain that SAX2 was not among the two packages that failed to install.

My graphics card is a G-Force FX 5500 128 bit w. 256MB DDR using a 
DVI connection to my new 19" TFT monitor. So far, no need for me to 
manually reconfigure X11. I think the installer correctly set of US 
keyboard for me.

If you have an amd64, I'd like to think that you won't have these 
type of problems.

Rodney
