When the RPM command runs, it will automatically place the component files of the X Server into the correct loctions in your system. NOTE: see the Red Hat manual for more details on the use of RPM. Red Hat 5.x (glibc) systems:- 1) get the file to your system cd /tmp ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/XFCom/XFCom-neomagic-glibc-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm 2) install the files using RPM rpm -ivh XFCom-neomagic-glibc-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm 3) after installing run (as root): ln -sf /usr/X11R6/bin/XFCom_NeoMagic /etc/X11/X mv /etc/X11/XF86Config /etc/X11/XF86Config.old cp /etc/X11/XF86Config.neomagic /etc/X11/XF86Config Red Hat 4.x (libc5 systems):- 1) get the file to your system cd /tmp ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/XFCom/XFCom-neomagic-libc5-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm 2) install the files using RPM rpm -ivh XFCom-neomagic-libc5-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm 3) after installing run (as root): ln -sf /usr/X11R6/bin/XFCom_NeoMagic /etc/X11/X chmod 4711 /usr/X11R6/bin/XFCom_NeoMagic mv /etc/X11/XF86Config /etc/X11/XF86Config.old cp /etc/X11/XF86Config.neomagic /etc/X11/XF86Config Special instructions for subnotebook users (e.g. Toshiba Libretto 100CT):- If your panel is a non-standard resolution (e.g. 800x480), you will want to start with the XF86Config file at: /etc/X11/XF86Config.libretto100ct A description of the supported configuration options can be found at: /usr/doc/XFCom-neomagic-glibc-2.0.0/README /usr/doc/XFCom-neomagic-libc5-2.0.0/README If you want to run you system in various color depths start X with the following command from the command line: startx -- -bpp # Replace # with 8, 16, or 24 to get the desired number of bits per pixel You can accomplish the same thing by editing your XF86Config file to comment out the display subsections above the color depth of interest. This will allow you to run in the desired color depth without having to use the -bpp flag when you execute the startx command.
