Procedure

This will of cource depend on your what you are trying to achieve ;-)

ATTENTION! There is a difference between libc5 and glibc2 packages!

SuSE Linux versions up to and including 5.3 were based on the libc5 libraries. If you are using such a system and would like to upgrade the X Server, you can find the necessary packages in the following directory of our FTP server: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/XFree86-3.3.3.1-SuSE/libc5.

Since the release of SuSE Linux 6.0, the system has been based on glibc2 libraries. For these systems, the X Server can be found in the following directory: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/XFree86-3.3.3.1-SuSE/glibc2.

SaX can be found in the following directory of our FTP-Server: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse60/x1/sax.rpm

Please be aware that this package (because of the change in the C Libraries can only work with versions of SuSE Linux after (and including) 6.0!
