I have a new installation of Debian 2.0. I am trying to configure x to work properly. First I tried xf86config and tried to create an extremely simple config file to get it work. It does not.
Then I tried XF86Setup and it worked so long as I bring X up from this program but when I try to run startx to begin x I get the following error line as far as I can see. (I haven't figured out how to capture the output of the startx command in full so here is the best I have.) ======================= (**) XKB: symbols: "us(pc101)" (**) XKB: geometry: "pc" (**) XKB: keymap: "xfree86(us)" (overrides other XKB settings) (**) XKB: rules: "xfree86" (**) Mouse: type: BusMouse, device: /dev/logibm, buttons: 3 (**) I128: Graphics device ID: "Diamond Viper 330" (**) I128: Monitor ID: "My Monitor" (**) FontPath set to "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/" *** None of the configured devices were detected.*** Fatal server error: no screens found When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send the full server output, not just the last messages _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111 giving up. xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error. ================ As I said I can get XF86Setup to bring up a X screen and it says congratulations on getting x to work but then when I save XF86Config file and then try to run startx I get I get the above error messages. I have a Diamond Viper V330 card which is supported in the SVGA server and 4megs of vram and all of my other hardware works. Any help would be great, Thanks in advance, Matthew A.
