I bought a set of CDs (4 in fact) from Walnut Creek CDROM (of course a
branch in Japan
I think). The first one is the package of Slackware 7.0. You can run
everything (X-win) from
the second one if your CDROM is bootable.  Everything is so easy. ALso I
found that the
XF86Config is a bit different from that of REDHAT, e.g. , provided by
George. Yesterday
I did not configure  the X. Just copy the  XF86Config  from the second CD
and change
small things. Then the X-win worked. And the PC-card  and network also.
Try it!
