Re: XDM and X not beggining



	Hi,
	the permissions are:

baptista@honolulu: /dev$ ls -l kbd 
crw-r--r--   1 root     root      11,   0 Jan 26 10:40 kbd
baptista@honolulu: /dev$ ls -l fb0
crw--w--w-   1 root     tty       29,   0 Jan 29 08:54 fb0
baptista@honolulu: /dev$ ls -l sunmouse
crw-------   1 root     root      10,   6 Jan 25 10:57 sunmouse
baptista@honolulu: /dev$ ls -l mouse
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root            8 Jan 25 10:59 mouse -> sunmouse
baptista@honolulu: /dev$ 

	Is they right?

	I have the following packages installed:

baptista@honolulu: /dev$ dpkg -l | grep xfont
ii  xfonts-100dpi   3.3.3.1-3      100 dpi fonts for X
ii  xfonts-75dpi    3.3.3.1-3      75 dpi fonts for X

baptista@honolulu: /dev$ dpkg -l | grep xserver
ii  xserver-common  3.3.2.3a-11    files and utilities common to all X servers
ii  xserver-xsun    3.3.2.3a-11    X server for 8-bit Sun framebuffers

ii  xserver-xsun24  3.3.2.3a-11    X server for 24-bit Sun framebuffers
baptista@honolulu: /dev$ 

	And have to following xdm.log:

baptista@honolulu: /dev$ tail /var/log/xdm.log 
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
xdm error (pid 1358): Server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly: 1
(using VT number 7)
