Hi!

}-> I have a Dell Optiplex Gxa that I am attempting to install X windows on.
}->
}-> I can get XF86Setup to run , can setup the mouse properly, than comes the
[...]
}-> window the following happens

i´ve got an rage pro, too, but the "II"-type

}-> _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect Can't Connect error111

i remember weakly, that i had this error too, but playing a little bit
arround with the options brought the solution

}-> Then trying to bring up the X windows server again results in the
following
}->
}-> Can't read "messages (phase 2.1)": no such variable
[..]
}-> "source /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Setup/phase2.tcl"

i don´t know anything about this, i haven´t seen such message yet

}-> I have tried the generic VGA driver and several others with the same
result$
}->
}-> Does anybody have this type of machine?  And what driver did you use

i´m using the mach64-Xserver at the 1152X864 - resolution

here are the settings for the graphics card:

    Identifier  "ATI Rage"
    VendorName  "ATI"
    BoardName   "3D Rage II"
    VideoRam    4096	# could differ
    Chipset     "mach64"
    Ramdac      "Internal"
    Option      "power_saver"
    Option      "no_pixmap_cache"
    Option      "no_font_cache"
			
maybe this will help you a bit
