Problem description: A number of problems exist with the XFree86 RPMs shipped with Red Hat Linux 6.0. The font server is hardcoded not to accept TCP connections. A race condition leads to slow startups on X servers which are entirely cached in memory. There are some problems with inputting ISO-8859-1 characters with an ISO-8859-2 language in use. By default, the directory /etc/X11/xdm/authdir does not exist, which causes the X server to fall back to no authentication at all. Additionally, those users who did not use Xkb keyboard extension had problems wwith backspace and Motif applications. 8. Solution: Upgrade to the latest errata release of XFree86 for Red Hat Linux 6.0 on your particular platform. In some circumstances, you may be required to add --force and/or --nodeps to the rpm command line options to insure a proper upgrade. Add these options if the command line given gives an error. You should upgrade at least the core XFree86 package, the font server (xfs) package, the libraries, and the server for your video card. More detailed instructions on installing XFree86 are available from: http://www.redhat.com/corp/support/docs/XFree86-upgrade/XFree86-upgrade.html Also upgrade your xinit package: rpm -Uvh xinitrc-2.4-1.noarch.rpm 9.
