I am running Debian 1.31. I want to install X windows on my system. Keep in mind that I have run X windows on this machine in the past using XFree86. So I know there is no incompatability in the software hardware issue.
Here is the problem: I cannot run XF86Setup. It will not show anything on my monitor. I configure it by way of xf86config and run startx and get a blank screen also. I have tried the copy off my CD and the copy on the debian FTP site with the same results. BTW, it must be loading because all I have to do is wait for the hard drive activity to stop and press CTRL-ALT-Backspace and get back to my CLI. This has to be something simple that I have overlooked since I cannot see the system not working. BTW, I have looked at the configuration file from my old install and cannot find anything meaningfull different between the two. Here is my hardware: HP Pavilion 7166 133 MHZ Pentium 36 MEG RAM Several HD's IDE CD-rom S3 Trio64 V+ built in vidio card with 1 MEG ram HP Pavilion 15" Monitor Hope this helps.
