Actually Metro-X server sounds quite cool for its time. Multi-display support, X-based GUI for configuration (anyone remember xf86config stuff?)...

I actually bought the Red Hat Linux 3.0.3 (and used it and its successors Until Red Hat 7) but the Metro-X didn't support my video card so I was stuck with the XFree86.

Does anyone know if the later Redhat versions (than 3.0.3) offered Metro-X? Probably not in the free, downloadable ISOs but was it bundled in the sold CDs or was this one time thing only?




> anyone remember xf86config stuff?

Wow, yeah. I also remember the YaST X configuration tool that shipped with SuSE.
