Does it work with a V3? That would require XFree86 4? It is slower than Win98? Any problems with mouse focusing.

Extract the 4.13a .tar.gz, make sure the UT CD is mounted at /mnt/cdrom, then run the install-sh script. Does it all no problem. The 4.25 patch is a little trickier. Uses binaries and X interface to do the install. Haven't been able to get that working yet. Let me know if you succeed. I'm going to look at it again. You could quite easily patch it up under Linux and copy the filesystem across. Any chance of making the changes it makes available somewhere? I realise this will be a largish tar file as it'll probably modifiy those 40MB files a little. Downloading something that big is no problem, if you could put it up somewhere? Cheers.
