OK, Thanks to all who replied!  I got the XFree86-1.3u1 or something
with a 'u' in it from sun-lamp.  Took me 4 hours to figure it out, but
then everything went smoothly.  Only major glitch was trying to get my
serial mous to work.  It's a Logitech Serial Mouseman.  Well, I left it
as Logitech when it should have been Mouseman.  Anyway, it works.
