Xmacbsd.foo is a binary, just tar zxvf it. Should be the same for the
libXpm, it says it's a binary, untar it and put it in /usr/X11R6/lib/ -
the .o file depends on what you're running - if you're running 1.2.1 it
should jsut work - just modify your /etc/lkm.conf like so and reboot (and
put the .o file in /usr/lkm )

If you are running -current, you will need to get the sources for the lkm
and the patches for them which were done by Colin Wood, I believe i have
them somewhere, or you could ask him - Anyway, then you need to compile
the lkm - and oh yeah, you have to have the kernel compile sources to be
able to do it... Then put the .o file in /usr/lkm and change the lkm.conf
Technically speaking, i could put the -current .o file up for ftp - in
fact, that's not a bad idea - It is in
ftp://rosadelsaron.res.cmu.edu/pub/color/
hope this helps
