Hmmm,

could you please provide some information about how to really upgrade
your current XFree86 to the 4.0 version?

I compiled it under both 4.0 and 3.4 and having the hardest of time to
get it running.  I have entries in pam.conf for xdm and startx, and
compiled X both with and without PAM support.  I then created a whole
new XF86Config in /etc.

But I keep running into startx problems moaning about needing to use
Xwrapper and unfortunately the XFree86 projects lacks in docs, it's even
worse than the average Open Source project.  Especially when it concerns
Xwrapper and startx in this new situation.  And grovelling around in the
extracted tarballs or on their site doesn't really help much. =\

Thanks,
