hmm...it's been a little while since i've done anything w/ my video drivers, i guess b/c while the boards were down i didn't have this link:
http://voidmain.kicks-ass.net/redhat/redhat_8_kernel_2.4.20_from_source.html

but after i dled it (for about 2 hours), i followed the easy instructions, but i got an error when i did "make xconfig"

Code: [Select]

You must not have followed the instructions fully. The first paragraph (starting with "Let us begin:") states you need to have the "Kernel Development" checked in your "Packages" utility on your menu. This will install "Tk" which contains "wish" which is what the error is complaining that is missing.
Someone please remove this account. Thanks...
