I'm trying to get my Intel 845 card running on RH 8.0.
I understand that the latest X version is compatible, but i'm not sure I'm ready to try updating. Can somebody give me detailed instructions on how to update? Or point me to a place that gives instructions so that i can print them out.
With some help I've managed to play enough to make the screen readable, although my resolution is 640X480. If I had more resolution options I wouldn't care. Even 800X600 would be better.
Any suggestions? Anybody figured out how to get the thing tweaked to work??

Alright. I've updated my kernal using the update feature in RH8, no problems.
I've been reading up on updating xf86.
When I run the Xinstall.sh -check here's what I get.

uname reports 'Linux' version 2.4.18-19.8.0 architectture i686 Object format is 'ELF'
Xinstall.sh: line 1: strings: command not found

No Linux/i86 binaries for this libc version

What's the error and how to do I fix it so I know what to download??
