Has anyone gotten the S3 FreeX86 to work yet?
Here's the problem I encounter...
under /usr/X386/bin, I make the X->XS3
I start the xinit and this is what I got
S3 X server, blah, blah....
X server error(13):
no config file found.

I/O: pipe broken.....

I also found another problem, the S3 server seems to have a hardcoded path:
/bd/X11R5/lib/X11...., I did make a symlink /bd/X11R5/lib-> /usr/X386/lib.

any idea, anyone? Amancio?
