Re: Seems I have bad timing with Debian on SPARC.
Nice. I'll disable XDM and do a manual startup. Did you write out
/etc/X11/xorg.conf? (if not, if there's a chance you could before
starting X do an X -configure and post the resulting xorg.conf.new
that pops up in your home directory that would be great.
I'm going to switch back to wheezy tonight if plans fall through.
thanks,
