Hello,
I'm using a DELL 470 workstation with a XEON proc, 1GB RAM and 2 SATA disks. I installed sarge last week on it, everything works (sshd, ftp, X11 (gnome), DHCP, GPM). Now i downloaded kernel 2.6.8.1 and configured it with following settings: SCSI, libata, sound, DHCP, XEON architecture, USB, VESA... I had to change my fstab to get it working because my sata disks are seen as SCSI disks so i changed HDA* to SDA* in my fstab. Now i am booting in my new kernel (NO INITRD) and i don't see anything wrong when it boots. I have high resolution, i can see the penguin :) and i get an ip address from my DHCP server. I can ping to other pc's and other pc's can ping to me, FTP is also working. What's not working is: - GPM it's correctly configured, just like in my other configuration (but with other kernel) and should work via /dev/input/mice and when i attach my mouse, i get USB messages on my screen so my machine is detecting the logitech USB mouse but when i move my mouse, nothing is happening. - SSHD is not working, i checked the listenadress and this is correctly but when i try to connect from another machine i get: READ FROM SOCKET FAILED: CONNECTION RESET BY PEER - Xserver not working (works perfectly with my other configuration) When i perform a startx i get: _XSERVTransSocketOpen: socket() failed for local _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for local _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for local/squidie:0 _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for local Fatal server error: Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send the full server output, not just the last messages. This can be found in the log file "/var/log/XFree86.0.log". Please report problems to [EMAIL PROTECTED] _X11TransSocketOpen: socket() failed for local _X11TransSocketOpenCOTSClient: Unable to open socket for local _X11TransOpen: transport open failed for local/squidie:0 Giving up. Xinit: Address family not supported by protocol (errno 97): unable to connect to X server Xinit: No such process (errno 3): server error. Now, there is no X server already running (checked /tmp/.X11 and there is nothing overthere). Help is much appreciated...i don't know what to check/change further to get this working.
