Xfree86 on Mandriva?

All:
Is Xfree86 on Mandriva Linux 2007? None of the utilities seem to be
there; yet, it was on 2006.

I thought Xfree86 was already replaced by Xorg on 2006 ?

hg

Hmmm, I thought XFree86 was replaced with Xorg windowing service in 2006.
Guessing you did an upgrade to 2006 instead of a clean install.

On Monday 16 October 2006 15:44, hg stood up and addressed the masses
in /alt.os.linux.mandrake/ as follows...:

If I recall correctly, then it was already replaced by /X.Org/ in 2005 LE.

I think you need to be clearer about what you want.
Are you looking for the contents of the xorg-contrib package?

the question is clearly stated

"Is Xfree86 on Mandriva Linux 2007"

to which a simple answer would be "no, here's a suggested alternative...."

All:
Thanks.
