GIVE ME A BREAK GUYS! I said I made link to X manualy on his machine last
night so there were all servers in place. We reinstalled the X from the CD
and maunaly edited XF86Config. Stop this nonsense with search. I don't
have access to that machine at this point.

The way it started was MSQL installation. We got that working. Then we
tried to get the X working. And now it's all a mess, the machine without X
and this email tread.

I think I'm bailing out in this case. No money will make me change my
mind. 

You have to see the problem or read a long story about it. Anything else
is speculation. Time to 'procmail" the tread.
