Hello, Hum that's the second time I ask a question, and just when I see the mail returning to I foudn the answer. I hope you will forgive that ;-)
There is a spelling error in the xf86config program. When it asking for the mouse it propose /dev/tty00 and it has to be /dev/ttyS0 (for com1). Also it propose just /dev/mouse but that certainly dont works. I found that desktop start with startx. Also I seems to have only 16 color, but before I ask again in panic I will try a little more myself, please forgive me !! rgds, Wilfried > -----Original Message----- > From: Wilfried Mestdagh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: dinsdag 25 juni 2002 16:49 > To: debian mailing list > Subject: RE: first installation,cannot find default font > > > Hello, > > Ok I just contunied with ctrl-c and it seemd it installed the fonts... after > a > while I got again to fill in all video stuff, and the test seems to > work (except > Icould not move the mouse cursor). > > But when I reboot I come again in the command interpreter.
