I am getting a tseng et4000 cipset graphics card.
I was wondering if anyone could send me their setup
for X386. I'm going outta town this weekend and need
to be able to set it up as fast as possible.
I'm going to demo the POWER of X windows to a MS windows
finatic.
Hopefully within an hour after uncompressing on to the drive.
Also, a way to uncompress the distribution without having to
copy them all to the drive.

I need as many replies (via email) as possible so that i
may try different ones in case one doesn't work for me.

my setup will be:

386-40 with 387 co-processor.
130 meg drive
4 meg ram
tseng et4000 video card.
1024x768 non-interlaced monitor.
3 button mouse systems mouse.
3.5 & 5.25 high density floppy drives.
