Everywhere I looked (uunet, export.lcs), it seems that only older (version 1.0?) binaries are available. I have seen a similar questions posted in this news group a few days ago. Can someone with X386 experience post a definite roadmap on how to install X386? Questions I would like to see answered: . Which distribution files are needed? . Are the "fonts", "man", "inc" and "lib" "bin" files unchanged since version 1.0? . Are the server binaries available or you have to rebuild from the source for each OS (Esix ISC etc)? . Who should use which version of the server (1.1 1.1a 1.1b)? From a posting by Thomas Roell, I understand that 1.1b is still beta. Is that why the binaries are not available?

I just got the lastest (beta versions of 1.1b - 1.1a is there, too, I think) from piggy - 128.111.72.50. (help *) KEITHE()

However, the older distribution of X386 also had the core XR14 ready to install (includes, libs, man pages etc). In addition, there was also a collection of binaries for popular xclients. I just installed the files available from uunet ( X/contrib2/386ix* ) and the X3861.1a update with 1.1a binary version of the server. I am glad to report that almost everything worked with very little work from my part. I am running ISC 2.2, with a Diamond SpeedStar + Sony 1304. Question: 1. Are the libs and xclients in the uunet distribution up to date with the "master" archive at muechen.informatik? I have at least one problem with the version I have -- xclock bombs every time I run it. 2. Is there a binary for the 1.1b server anywhere?
