gnome-2.4

[Igor Gueths]

Well...I have currently installed the Xserver and have it configured, the
xlibs(as far as I know). I installed the xfree86-common package, and also
the Xserver. I also installed Xfonts-base, Xfonts-100DPI, and
Xfonts-scalable to be on the safe side. Amything I am missing relating to
my X setup?
