I've made an attempt at putting together updates for the pending 4.6-RELEASE but have had great difficulty with the section for Configuring XFree86 (2.9.11). When I configure XFree86(4.2.0) using the sysinstall options, it seems to always produces an error message that the XFree86 Configuration process has failed when it tries to test the configuration. However, when I exit sysinstall and use the same configuration file that was produced, it works. I'm not sure what the issues are at this point since I've tried this on different systems with different hardware with the same results. Since I cannot follow the sysinstall XFree86 configuration process, its difficult to produce a good overview. Consequently, this section is a little vague. I've posted what I have at this point at: http://www.treefort.org/~rpratt/handbook/install-post.html Have a look at section 2.9.11 and if you have time, try the XFree86 configuration thru sysinstall on a 4.6-RC system. If you have success using sysinstall to configure XFree86, I'd certainly appreciate any input. If its just me, I'll accept the pointy-hat and go try to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
