Re: [LUG] Anti Virus



i wonder if any one can offer some help, i am attempting to get Linux up and
running on my Toshiba Sat Pro 490CDT laptop and can't get the X windows
configured.
I have used recommended XFConfig files for this model found on the net but
startx just causes a complete lockup.
I am wondering if as i am using Mandrake 7.2 that this distro comes with
XFree 4.0 and i have heard some people are having problems.
To cut a long story short, how can i be sure that i am using 3.3.6 instead.
