Re: How do you upgrade to XR117


No I am not looking for something called X11R7, I am simply 
looking trying to install the X.org packages from the setup.exe

Should I see a X11R7 directory in /usr?

Here is my /usr:

$ ls -ltr
total 0
drwxrwx---+  2 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 27 16:35 tmp
drwxrwx---+  2 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 27 16:35 src
drwxrwx---+  5 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 27 16:35 local
drwxrwx---+  9 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 27 16:37 X11R6
drwxrwx---+  6 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 27 16:38 ssl
drwxrwx---+  3 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 27 16:40 man
drwxrwx---+  4 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 27 16:40 sbin
drwxrwx---+ 39 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 27 16:46 include
drwxrwx---+ 49 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 28 10:30 share
drwxrwx---+ 36 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 28 10:30 lib
drwxrwx---+  2 jcklose mkgroup-l-d 0 Jan 28 13:48 bin
