Hi -- I got X386 split files (58 files) unpacked on my 386.
Then I did a "# mknod /dev/vga c 12 0". After typing
# xinit
X386 Version 1.2E 1.0.1 / X Window System
(protocol version 11, revision 0, vendor release 5000)
then system hangs.

Could someone advise me what to do next?
Any patches needed?
How to get a correct Xconfig file?
(I have an NEC MultiSync 3D, ATI1024 card, and
Logitech mouse.)

Any information would be greatly appreciated!
