Re: Upgrading XFree86



I'm assuming that I'll need to go on-line at some point during this update. Since I cannot do that just yet where my Linux box is, what could I download at another Internet-ready machine (which has a T1 line) to get deselect to work right?

Also, how do dselect and apt integrate with one another, if they do at all? I'm a bit confused with all the packaging tools: dpkg, dselect and apt.

Thanks again.

Put the following in /etc/apt/sources.list (in addition to the normal
entries):

deb http://ftp.netgod.net/ x/

Run dselect/update, select the Xserver you need and let apt sort out the
rest.
