Hello, Sorry for what might be a dumb question. I have a CentOS 4.4 machine with GD installed. I tend to prefer doing things via RPM to allow for updating in a easier fashion. I have a php based app that requires Freetype support in GD. This is a live server with many websites on it (although none are using GD at the moment. I am not sure the best/easiest way to get GD updated such that it has Freetype support. I did not install X on this machine as it was not needed. Would installing X be one of the steps I need to take? Thanks for your suggestions. Dale
