Ok....It works now....I got setup to work, and the server to work....
now my next task is to install KDE....I had no problems last time I
installed in 2.2.7...
but I tried it just now from sysinstall, it told me the package
XFree86-3.2.2 wasn't installed.
Now isn't that lovely...
any ideas?

I've also have been trying to get my Vibra16 pnp to work...but I've found
100 different docs on how its supposed to be installed...
I've tried  the sb0 devices in the kernel, and pnp...and others but none work.
Any ideas on that one?

Thanks for your help!
I'm going to bed now....but I'll be back in the morning...or late afternoon :)
