Wow, after weeks re-installing everything, I finally started x
So, I guess it is progress. Finally succeeded on Mitsubishi Amity laptop
with xf86config, using monochrome VGA and lowest resolutions. OK, now X will
start, and a get cross-hatched screen with a big black X in the middle. But
system is not responsive to keystrokes, like alt-F2 to try to start a console
& find out what is going on (if possible), and mouse is frozen too. If I
exit with C_A_backspace, I can back to prompt.
OK. "locate gnome" finds MANY files. But "gnome" at prompt returns:
bash: gnome: command not found.
Newbie is stuck again and needs clues. TIA, dave
