    X Servers?

    I'm having trouble finding free X Servers for Fedora Core 6 so I can run programs and I can't find any. And if I find, all I get is DEDICATED servers instead.

    Fedora comes with the X.org X server. It would have installed itself by default unless you explicitly told the installer not to. Are you having problems starting the X server?

    Alright, I downloaded X11, and no it's not automatic because this is a VPS. I managed to install it, and now I installed a VNC Server as well. Though I don't know how to set $DISPLAY so I can run Wine programs. :

    Is the X server working? I'm going to assume you got X.org...have you configured it?

    Can you tell us what EXACTLY are you trying to do?
