Xfree86 not working
I can't get Xfree86 4.0.3 to work on my Compaq Presario 5820
It has a Voodoo3 3000 card and a ViewSonic E655 monitior.
Whenever I try to start X it always "clicks" in with a screen with a
bunch of horizontial pick stripes then "clicks" out with this error on
the command line.
[drm:drm_release] *Error* Process 211 dead, free lock for context 1
it does this several times but with different processes and context
[drm:drm_release] *Error* Process 218 dead, free lock for context 2
[drm:drm_release] *Error* Process 221 dead, free lock for context 3
[drm:drm_release] *Error* Process 224 dead, free lock for context 4
Then it stops trying putting up a dialog telling me it is not configured
correctly.
Here are the relevant settings

BTW, I can't use the command "startx" it says
bash: startx: command not found
I have been using gdm to start X.
