	No. I didn't install ANY X when I re-installed it, I thought
this was going to do everything I need.  Should I just go to XFree86-4
and do a make there, then go back into XFree86-4-Server?

	I've also just started a re-install with X this time, and plan on
doing it all over again. Would that help? (I need to get some time in on
re-installing the OS to get used to it)
