The system does not allows me to do that:
# X -configure
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again.
How to close current X session and do not start a new one automatically?
I am continue googling and that brings more questions:
In dmesg I have noticed that info:
dmesg |grep radeon

R100_cp.bin is a part of firmware-linux-nonfree package.
# dpkg -l |grep firmware
ii firmware-ipw2x00 0.27
Binary firmware for Intel Pro Wireless 2100, 2200 and 2915
If I will install this package into the system, does it resolve the
problem with compiz malfunctioning? Sorry, if I am asking something
obvious, but I am not familiar with linux and do not want to do
something harmful to the system, which I have installed with so much
trouble. The question is, if this is a key component for 'radeon'
video driver of my laptop videoboard, why it is not installed by
default?
