Error while installing X


OK, I am first time installing Xfree86 to my Linux (RH9) and having problems. After compiling X and trying to run make install on it the make gives a nasty warning. What am I doing wrong? You could say that I am a newbie.

installing in programs/xcursorgen...
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/tsavolai/download/xc/programs/xcursorgen'

I don't think that the message you posted is an error message.
