X11 installation problems
Hello again.
I'm having trouble with the VGA16 server during the configuration
portion of dselect. It asks if I want it to create the configuration
file and when I say yes I get a message saying that the file was not
created. It then repeats the question but at that point the display
becomes skewed where the message starts a third of the way across the
screen and the keyboard no longer responds to anything but ^C. That
gives an error and the configuration of the other files continues but
the screen is still skewed and the only response I can give until the
process is complete is ^C.
I'm installing from a CheapBytes CD if that helps. Do they offer any
kind of support? I bought the 4 disc version and the installation
isn't very clear cut for us newbies. I'm still not sure how to
install contrib & non-free packages. Do I need to run dselect 3 times?
One more thing. Recently someone asked about how to execute the basic
configuration options that are given before running dselect the first
time but I can't seem to find the message. Could someone forward that
to me as well? TIA
