- I don't beleive the current X distribution has PEX included, as the default
- is not to include it. I am compiling X as I write this, but didn't bother
- to include it for the space it requires.

- You could always compile your own version of X. You can get the diffs against
- the mit distribution from export.lcs.mit.edu in the contrib/XFree86 dir.
