Re: Xwindows packages which one???
You just need to select one of the Xservers which are for different video
cards. vga16 is for standard vga and is the default since it works on all
cards. If you have an S3 card you would select the S3 Xserver instead.
Other than that the dependancies should mark the other needed packages.
You might also like to get a window manager like Afterstep. This manages
the look and feel of the X environment.
