 thank you for your response.
 the problem arose because i extracted XF8632 by hand and did not follow
 instructions carefully.  i have repeated the installation and everything
 works ok.
 the problem was that i did a plain "su" which sets the umask to 2 and
 proceeded to untar the XF8632 relevant files.  if i had done  "su -" the
 umask is set to 22 and i would not have run into a problem.  also
 the old XF86312 install instructions (RELNOTES?) stated that the umask
 should be set to 22.  the new RELNOTES instructions have changed and umask
 is not discussed. 
 
 regards/basit
