Description Jason Childers 2003-05-20 15:54:27 UTC
The link to the tutorial for configuring X that links to the
*ibm.com/developerworks/* site is broken.

Other links to the same site are broken for other documents too, I just don't
remember which ones they are, but specifically the one listed above is an
example of this problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the Gentoo Linux Desktop Configuration Guide page at
(http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/desktop.xml)
2. Scroll down to the "Configuring X" section under "2. Installing XFree86".
3. Click on link titled "this tutorial" which links to
(http://www-105.ibm.com/developerworks/education.nsf/%20%20%20%20linux-onlinecourse-bytitle/3100FF4795B3F31F86256AF70056FDB3?Open&ca=dgr-Gentoo-XFree86)


Actual Results:  
Got "The page cannot be displayed" page in IE, and a "The connection was refused
when attempting to contact www-105.ibm.com." in Mozilla 1.1.

Expected Results:  
I'd expect to be taken to the x86 configuration tutorial page.

It seems like that particular tutorial has disappeared. However, there are other XFree-tutorials on developersWork. I've linked to one of them.

Changes are committed into CVS.
