Matthias, All,
Thanks.=20
Fascinating though.
I did a=20
make fetch-list | grep Fetch
On each of these dirs you prescribe,
But none of them would seem to want to build and
Install :
xorg-server
Or
modular-xorg-server
=20
Curiously, wouldn't you think one or both of these=20
Would have to be built too to switch to Xorg?
Last night before I went home from work I kicked of
xorg-server build,
But I did a make not make install.=20
It's sitting there waiting, all finished this morn,
But in light of Matthias's email should I just leave it there
And not install it?
I'll start building and installing the recommended stuff anyhow.
Cheers,
Paul.

It shouldn't be too difficult:
1.) Get a recent copy of "pkgsrc" from CVS:
export CVS_RSH=3Dssh
cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot checkout -P pkgsrc
2.) Build the necessary packages:
cd pkgsrc/meta-pkgs/modular-xorg-apps
make install
cd ../modular-xorg-drivers
make install
cd ../modular-xorg-fonts
make install
cd ../../x11/xterm
make install
That's it.
Kind regards
