Hot on the heels of my Darwin ppc tarball and Mac OS X .pkg, I've built a binary build of XFree86 4.3.0 for Darwin 6.x x86. I am hoping to get the XFree86 folks to accept this tarball, so it conforms to the XFree86 standard distribution layout.

http://www.opendarwin.org/~ssen/Darwin-ix86-6.x.tar (for just the arch-specific stuff) - 15.7 MB
http://www.opendarwin.org/~ssen/Darwin-ix86-6.x.complete.tar (for arch-specific, plus man pages and other common stuff) - 48.5 MB

MD5 (Darwin-ix86-6.x.complete.tar) = d3d5855cc46e814b11efd3c7a444027a
MD5 (Darwin-ix86-6.x.tar) = e5189172217f7b74bfccde39b696e5ac

If you download the first tar file, you will still need to get some tar files from an xfree86.org mirror for things like Xdoc.tgz and Xman.tgz. If you download the second, you should be all set to start installing. Some of the things like postscript and Japanese documentation are not included, although you can get these from xfree86.org

After downloading and extracting, run "./Xinstall.sh -check", then "./Xinstall.sh" to install. The source is available from http://www.opendarwin.org/~ssen/xc-4.3.0.tar.gz, which is a checkout from the 4.3.0 release tag, plus some local modifications to fix building on darwin. It was built on OpenDarwin-20030212.

This sitll has the inverted color issue. If you know what's wrong, please speak up. I noticed that running xdpyinfo, it seemed that it was in 7-bit mode (?!)
