(That was always the case > when I would CVSUP and buildworld on our servers) You probably want to be installing 5.1-RELEASE. 5.1-RC was a release candidate, and had a few bugs that were fixed in 5.1-RELEASE. > I ask because I need at LEAST XFree86 4.2.x for my laptop > display to work properly with my ATI Radeon Mobility LY > on my IBM Thinkpad A30p.

The 5.0-RELEASE package set contains XFree86 4.2.1. This was mentioned in the release notes for both versions, although that was only because each version contained a more recent version of XFree86 than its predecessor.
