I had no luck getting X to run on my first installation of Debian 1.1 from the Gold cd from I-connect.
So I completely re-loaded the distribution, taking extra care to resolve the dependency conflicts. When I got to the configure packages section, I noticed in the error message "dpkg - Configure returned error exit status 1" that there were still a couple of things not installed right. So I went back and fixed that, and everything configured fine except the X server setup. After fixing a problem with the mouse in XF86Config, I got X up and running fairly well. I think it is giving me fvwm as the default window manager, and the middle mouse button doesn't work right ( the menu flashes a lot and I cannot select anything on that menu). I really prefer running openwin, so I created the directory /usr/openwin and copied all the stuff from my Slackware system over to there (bin, lib, etc.) I can get openwin to start, display the Linux openwin logo, but before the screen turns blue, the X-server exits with the message lwm: can't find library 'libolg.so.3' That library exists in the openwin/lib hierarchy, so I think there must be a link missing somewhere, possibly between /usr/X11/lib and somewhere. Do you know anything about this, or can I give you any more information to help me solve this?
