When I configure XFree86(4.2.0) using the sysinstall options, it seems to always 
produces an error messages that the XFree86 Configuration process seems to have
failed when it tries to test the configuration.  However, when I exit sysinstall
and use the configuration file that was produced, it works.  This leads me to
think that its not a configuration issue.

I'm beginning to wonder if anyone has gotten XFree86 configured successfully
using sysinstall.  I'd appreciate confirmation that it has been used to configure
XFree86 without problems using sysinstall.

My concern is that when a new user attempts to install and runs into this, 
they're going to give up.

I'd appreciate any comments on this since I'm trying to update the
handbook/install section for 4.6-RELEASE.  It makes it pretty difficult to document if I can't seem to make it work.

Thanks!

Randy
