<para>XFree86 is a freely redistributable open-source implementation of the
|
|
X Window System. XFree86 provides a client/server interface between display
|
|
hardware (the mouse, keyboard, and video displays) and the desktop environment
|
|
while also providing both the windowing infrastructure and a standardized
|
|
application interface (API).</para>

<para>There are several files that need to be fetched from the download location:

<screen>X430src-1.tgz 10736 KB
|
|
X430src-2.tgz 7776 KB
|

X430src-3.tgz 12077 KB

|
|
|
|
<para>The first three packages are the XFree86 programs, the fourth and fifth are fonts,
|
|
the sixth is normal documentation, and the seventh is hardcopy documentation.
|
|
There are also two packages <filename>doctools-1.3.1.tgz</filename>, which
|
|
contain programs to regenerate hardcopy documentation, and
|
|
<filename>utils-1.1.0.tgz</filename>, which contain <filename>gnutar</filename>
|
|
and <filename>zlib</filename> which are already installed on an LFS system.

|
|
|
<para>To check your downloads for integrity, download the <filename>SUMS.md5sum</filename>
|
|
file. Then:
|
|
<screen>md5sum X430src* > md5sums &&
|
|
diff md5sums SUMS.md5sum</screen>
|
|
The only differences you should see are for <filename>README</filename>,
|
|
<filename>doctools-1.3.1.tgz</filename>, and
|
|
<filename>utils-1.1.0.tgz</filename> files if you did
|
|
not download them.
