I beg to differ; nothing wrong with the Red Hat series of distros
(that's relevant to this thread).  But he has a hardware compatibility
problem.  That means that a more recent distro than Red Hat 6.2, which
defaults to installing XFree86 4.0x, is likely to have a server that
knows about his hardware.

I never did get any version of XF86 3.x working properly on my
Gateway.  He may have no alternative to XF86 4, but updating RH 6.2 to
that with only the command line interface to RPM to work with sounds
like not much fun.
