Hi, I recently got a copy of debian 2.2r4 through one of the official
vendors on the debian website and i'm having trouble accessing the x window
system
this is the error message i get when initx or startx command is used:
_exec of usr/bin/x11/xf86_NONE failed
_x11transSocketUNIXConnect can't connect: errno= (111) giving up xinit:connection refused (errno 111) unable to connect to xserver no such process (errno 3) server error I've heard about problems with the geforce2 mx400/linux and since using
this card have had trouble using graphics with other distros as well (mandrake,
suse)
my system:
1Ghz K7 Gigabyte 7dxr m/b 256mb DDR Ram nvidia Geforce2 mx400 64mb 2 HDs debian was installed using a 128mb swap partition and two other 3gb linux
native partitions,
initially i installed a lot of packages incl. the x-windows components but a lot of errors were reported during setup, after i found i couldn't get to a desktop i tried reinstalling the system and installed the xwin components ONLY however the same errors and problem occured - any help will be gratefully received (it may be something really obvious but i'm an absolute beginner (sorry)) David S. |
