Hello, I upgraded to woody from potato. I installed XFree86 4.1 and xserver-xfree86. The chipset, 3dfx Woodoo3, is detected fine. I had problems trying to run gdm, and I was adviced from this list to reinstall xfonts-base (thanks Thomas!). What happened then was that the initial windows o gdm opened fine, but I was not able to login in any session. Only the gnomesafe option in gdm worked. I decided to deinstall gdm and wait until be able to start the X manager from the command line before install a session manager again. But now I can't start X. For example:
1) If I type "wmaker" in order to login in a WindowMaker session I get: /usr/bin/WindowMaker fatal error: could no open display "" 2) If I use "gnome-session" in order to login in a Gnome 1.4 session I get: Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: _IceTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.Ice-unix should be set to root SESSION_MANAGER=local.nostromo:/tmp/.ICE-unix/194 Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library Gtk_WARNING **: cannot open display Honestly, I have no idea what is going wrong. And I need to put the machine to work! Any help will be *very* appreciated! Thanks! Marcelo -- Marcelo Chiapparini DFT-IF/UERJ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
