If I download a tar/gz file, say foo.tar.gz, and I WinRar extract it, it'll give me foo.tar. Winzip, however, will recognize foo.tar and offer to extract it for me, saving me a click or two.
Versions of WinRAR newer than 3.10 no longer suffer that limitation.
According to this interview with someone from Micron, they has pulled the plug on their 3D development. It looks like Rendition belongs on the dead list.
Build XFree86 4.0.1 ( CFLAGS='-I/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/XFree86-4.0.1/xc/e xport/include' LDFLAGS='-I/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/XFree86-4.0.1/exp ort/lib' rpm --rebuild XFree86-4.0.1-0.30.src.rpm ) and install the desired XFree86 4.0.1 RPMs located in/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/XFree86-*. Set CFLAGS and LDFLAGS is needed else the build will complain about being inable to find some parts of xlib, which should only an issue when building on a system without XFree86 installed.
I haven't really had any problems except for warnings in the USB portion of rc.sysinit, which can be commented out. Some files were renamed or were moved around as well (i.e., conf.modules becomes modules.conf and the init scripts are moved from/etc/rc.d to/etc). Another problem is the HelixGNOME installer doesn't play nicely with the new RPM database and tries to update packages.rpm instead of Packages, which is probably a good thing since it doesn't seem to be aware of db3.
The only way the RPMs from rawhide will install is if the rawhide SRPMs are rebuilt on a RedHat 6.x system using RPM 4.0. Once that's been done, XFree86 4.0.1 installs without any of the dependency problems that installing the binary RPMs straight from the ftp site would have.
Perhaps instead they are worried that someone might have it go on a rampage, smashing up all the museums.
He could sell-out to the RIAA. It would certainly help to minimize the number of repeat-downloaders they have to sue.

I ought to stop while I'm ahead.
A clarification to my previous post, the GPL prohibits the distribution of binaries linked against non-GPL compatible licenses.

- Install RPM 4.0.
- Download the RPM 4.0 tarball ( ftp://ftp.rpm.org/pub/rpm/test/rpm-4. 0.tar.gz ).
- Download db3, the database format used by RPM 4.0 ( ftp://ftp.rpm.org/pub/rpm/ test/db3-3.1.14-0.2.6x.src.rpm ).
- Build ( rpm --rebuild db3-3.1.14-0.2.6x.src.rpm ) and install ( ls

- Moving the old database files (
/var/lib/rpm/*.rpm ) out of /var/lib/rpm is necessary to prevent RPM 4.0 from segfaulting.
- Update initscripts, modutils and chkconfig to be compatible with those expected by the rawhide distribution of XFree86 4.0.1.
