Hi,

I have now got a kit consisting of dynamically linked binaries
for XFree86 set up, and it is available for ftp....
Note that you will have to get the rest of XFree from a source
such as agate.berkeley.edu - this kit only contains some stuff
for /usr/X386/bin and /usr/X386/lib (+ shlibs).

You can get the kit from braae.ru.ac.za by anonymous ftp,
in the directory pub/386bsd/X-shlib.

The files in the directory are:
386bsd-shlibs-source-0.0.tar.z
README
Xbin.cpio.z
Xlib_s.a.cpio.z
ld
shlibs_s_1.cpio.z
usr.lib_s.a.cpio.z

Installation instructions are in the README.

Please remember that there is only a 64Kbit leased line between South
Africa and the US, and that this line is often saturated to over 95% of
its capacity.  I would appreciate it if you attempt to transfer the
larger files after hours local time (GMT+2).

Have fun!
Geoff.
