Hello all, I have been running into this issue with both woody and sid and I am not quite certain what the issue may be. I am relatively new to debian so I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Basically I want to install X on my toshiba laptop. However I believe I get everything working fine but I just get the NVidia logo and then gdm crashes and goes back to NVidia again. Here is essentially what I do. apt-get update apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-<version> apt-get install xserver-xfree86 Now I would think startx command would work at this time but it doesn't so I try installing gdm apt-get install gdm this whole process actually took me a couple of tries, apt-get it weird sometimes it chokes and you just to re-update it and try again, Am I doing soemthing wrong? dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 this is what I use to configure X
I put in all the required info, guessing only on my horizsync and verticalsync from postings on the web (I would think it's ok cause the NVidia logo is perfect) But then gdm just chokes. I just want x to work. Paul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
