XFree86 4.0 for SuSE Linux available
Mar 28th, 08:03 UTC
Dear Linux user!
We are proud to inform all XFree86 enthusiasts that the rpms of the very
latest XFree86 release 4.0 for SuSE Linux are now available for download
on SuSE´s ftp site ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/X/XFree86/XFree86-4.0-SuSE
XFree86 4.0 is the first official release of the new XFree86 4. XFree86 4
represents a significant redesign of the XFree86 X server. It is very
important to keep in mind that XFree86 4 is still very much in development,
and it contains a lot of new work. That means two things: there is a lot
of new exciting stuff to try, but being new code, it hasn't had nearly as
much of a workout as the stable 3.3.x releases. If you're looking for a
well-tested, stable release, and can't afford the inconveniences that new
software can sometimes cause, then you are probably better off sticking
with the 3.3.x releases for now.
So please take care of the release notes
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/X/XFree86/XFree86-4.0-SuSE/RELNOTES
and the readme
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/X/XFree86/XFree86-4.0-SuSE/README
Have a lot of fun!
Your SuSE team
