Re: MetroX-Xfree86



I don't know if this helps but I just loaded 4.2 over ver 3.03. First, I
choose not to load MetroX because
it did not support my graphics card and chip set(STB lightspeed and the
et6000 respectively). By not 
loading MetroX, I instead went to XFree86 (which is included this time). It
had my card and chipset listed, weird? Anyway I like 4.2 and CDE bundle. It
totalled about $133.00.
