Howdy, So, if I understand the situation properly, the X server has been moved out of the distribution and hasn't been updated since (according to the dates) NetBSD 1.0. Ouch. I assume that xbase.tgz and the like in the distribution are XFree86-based X11R6.3 clients. The tarball of the old X stuff includes all the X11R5 clients. ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/hp300/hp300_X11R5.tar.gz Presumably one doesn't need to install *all* of that stuff. What exactly is necessary to get the old X11R5 server running with the current X11R6.3 clients? Just the static XhpBSD? Some fonts it requires? options COMPAT_10? In the absence of a more modern X server, it'd be nice if we could package up just the essential X11R5 stuff so folks don't have to download the whole 20 MB X11R5 distribution just to get a working server. If someone gave me a list of the essential files and requirements, I could put that tarball on the ftp sites. Thanks, -- MW
