Well, I've installed the XFree-3.2 RPM from contrib, as the one
XFree-3.2-1.i386.rpm still had some glithces. I must say, the Version
in Contrib fits marvellously well in the already existing system. I
just did the upgrade, and Voila :) it worked. Everything worked like
before, somethings even better...
