So wilee upgrade, the entire distribution work ok? #include <std_disclaimer.h> I *think* it's O.K., but frankly I haven't tried. On top of that, the latest 2.2 SNAP on the ftp site installs XFree 3.3. If you have a working XFree 3.2 on a system I think you'll be better off leaving the old one (why mess with something that is known to be working). It's pretty easy to test it out. Just back up /usr/X11R6 before you start, so you can always go back if it goes wrong. > > > 3. When sysinstall is finished it will let you merge your old /etc > > files.
