I had the same error before. When you use xf86config, when it asks if it should put the configuration file (just before asking the amount of video memory) answer "n". I don't know what does that do, but it worked for me.

After tooling around w/ Corel for a bit I decided to step up to the plate.... I installed Debian all right (I think) I didn't know most of the answers to the config portion of the install so I went with the defaults most of the time. Anyway I'm trying to fire up X Windows and using the command /usr/X11R6/bin/startx and I am getting the error message _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. Do I not have X Windows installed? not installed correctly? Or I am I totally lost? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Kick off your party with Yahoo!
