I am listing the following packages as necessary in my How-To document:
xfree86-4.0-DLLs.tar.bz2
xfree86-4.0-fonts.tar.bz2
xfree86-4.0-Xterm.tar.bz2
xfree86-4.0-Xwin.tar.bz2
With those packages I can get a full-screen X/Server up and running (albeit,
with really wacky colors), and Xterm works.
Should I be recommending other packages, such as:
xfree86-4.0-Prog.tar.bz2
xfree86-4.0-Xnest.tar.bz2
xfree86-4.0-Xprt.tar.bz2
xfree86-4.0-Xvfb.tar.bz2
xfree86-4.0-twm.tar.bz2
Should I recommend one of the contributed X/Servers?
X-servers-v-1.0.-exe.tar.bz2
Please include a description of any package that I should recommend, as I
can't seem to figure out what most of these packages are for; for example,
xfree86-4.0-Xwin.tar.bz2 includes vtwm.exe, but there is a package named twm
as well, so, what the heck is the twm package for?
