Well, the packages installed correctly, but something went wrong with
the video drivers. When I got home and checked it was constantly
recycling the X server with a message about an unknown video device id,
and trying agpgart with an unsupported option. I don't recall changing
anything to do with X, so I don't understand why this started happening,
but it was obviously something I did yesterday that caused it because it
was fine in the morning. At this point I tried the Fedora Core 4 install
that was posted here a few weeks ago but that did nothing, although I
may not have done it right, the directions are very vague. I may try
again with a fresh Xebian install and see what happens.
One step forward, two giant steps back...
