redhat rpm stuff
I was able to mount my dos partition (thanks to all of you who helped).
I then copied over a copy of Xfree86-3_3_3_1-1_i386.rpm onto my linux disk.
I then tried to install it by typing in:
rpm -ivh (Xfree...rpm)
which brought up an error because files were already in existance.
I then tried:
rpm -Uvh (Xfree...rpm)
which brought up similar errors
I then tried:
rpm -ivh --replacefiles (Xfree...rpm)
which seemed to install fine. However now when i run Xconfiguator. I can
scroll down to my video card (diamond viper 550, riva TNT). However when i
press "enter" I get a seg fault and the core dumps. Anyone else have this
problem? and is it a result of my install procedure or a software issue?
