Xfree86 on Mandriva?

All:
Is Xfree86 on Mandriva Linux 2007? None of the utilities seem to be
there; yet, it was on 2006.

I thought Xfree86 was already replaced by Xorg on 2006 ?

Hmmm, I thought XFree86 was replaced with Xorg windowing service in 2006.
Guessing you did an upgrade to 2006 instead of a clean install.

If I recall correctly, then it was already replaced by /X.Org/ in 2005 LE.

I think you need to be clearer about what you want.
Are you looking for the contents of the xorg-contrib package?
