XFree86 on FC3


i am trying to get mjpegtools installed, and the rpm says it needs XFree86. I am in a real mess trying to install the relevant software, especially since FC3 doesn't use Xfree86 anymore. Can I get XFree86 installed? I seem to be in a vicious circle trying to install it

I wouldn't install xfree86 since it would overwrite some xorg stuff. If you setup the dag rpm repository, you can install that package using apt/synaptic.
