if thats the *ONLY* xfree package you installed you need at
least xfree86-common, and some fonts. I have 1 system with
a minimal install, all it runs is xawtv(no window manager),
all it has installed is:
xf86setup install
xfonts-100dpi install
xfonts-75dpi install
xfonts-base install
xfonts-cyrillic install
xfonts-pex install
xfonts-scalable install
xfree86-common install
xfs install
of course you'll probably need a window manager unless its
a specialized system like this one I run that only runs
xawtv fullscreen 24/7.
