Re: X-windows not working anymore...
I recompiled the kernel putting the Unix domain sockets directly IN the
kernel (not in a module) and it doesn't give me that error message
anymore. Xwindows still doesn't work though and quits immediately after
starting just like there is no window manager. I have Afterstep,
Enlightenment, and TWM installed, and have tried every path possible in
the "window-managers" file but to no avail. Any more ideas. Thanks.
