debian Xwindow
How to config Xwindow under debian, it displayed as below on the screen after i use command "startx" to start x window:
Fatal server error: no screens found |
You need these packages for Gnome:
"x-window-system", "gnome", and "gdm" You could also check this thread: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=338272 If you need more help post again in here. |
can u tell me which command can be used to install the package you said before as it is my first time to install debian, many thx....
|
Now it displayed the below message when i install once debian again,
Fatal server error: AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0 It seems the display card problem, am i right? If it is a display card problem, what can i do? |
To install any package you should do:
apt-get install (packae_name) replacing (package_name) by the name of the package. Try with: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 And try another configuration. |
Try with:
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 And try another configuration. Which configuration should i try? and can u tell me the path and the file need to config? |
The three packages you said before only "gnome" can't find the package and the others two are installed. Is it really have gnome?
|
You should issue the command:
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 And it should open a configuration menu. I would advise you to use that for now instead of the configuration file. Try to change the parameters until you can get some results. By the way what packages do you have installed? Did you install the ones I told you before? |
From where are you installing your packages? From CD or from the net?
To change the source of your apt (the packages installer) do: apt-setup And choose the source you want and then try again to install Gnome. |
now i am setting the apt program from http.
um... i wanna to know that if my display card is onborad, how should i choose the display card ? |
which apt http site should i choose becuase i try to choose 2 site that still cannot download the "gnome" and "gdm". The result is the file cannot be found.
Many thx for yr help!! |
Are you sure your internet connection is working?
I think this is getting too long ... and you should do some reading before ... Do: ping www.google.com And if it works then try to look for some answers in google.com What you should do is make sure your apt source is correct, then install the packages and configure everything properly with the commands I gave you before. If you cannot find your way, then post again in here ... |
After I installed the three packages and run "startx" again. It is displayed the below message:
Fatal server error: AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0 What should i do then? |
Did you do a google search for that problem?
Or did you even look for that in these forums? It seems that was answered many times. Did you do the reconfigure I told you about? I just did a google search with your problem and here is the first result I got: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...002/11/2/35019 As I told you before, you have to do the reconfigure ... to change your settings |
perhaps
# apt-get install xdebconfigurator might help? |
