## 2.1. Full Install

1. You must be logged in as root to unpack the archives because several executables are set-user-id. Otherwise the server may abort if you unpack it as an ordinary user.
2. If you have about 80Mb free in the `/usr` partition create a directory `/usr/X11R6` and skip to no. 3. Otherwise, create a directory on another partition and sym link it into `/usr`:

   > `

   >      # cd /usr/local
   >      # mkdir X11R6
   >      # ln -s /usr/local/X11R6 /usr/X11R6

   > `

3. Unpack everything: If you are using bash:

   > `

   >      # cd /usr/X11R6
   >      # for i in X33*.tgz; do
   >      #   gnutar -xzpPf $i
   >      # done

   > `

   Else, if you are using csh:

   > `

   >      % cd /usr/X11R6
   >      % foreach i (X33*.tgz)
   >      %   gnutar -xzpPf $i
   >      % end

   > `

4. Create a symbolic link ```X`'' that points to the server that matches your video card. The XF86_* man pages list which vga chip sets are supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based card you will use the XF86_SVGA server:

   > `

   >      # cd /usr/X11R6/bin; rm -f X; ln -s XF86_SVGA X

   > `
