Hi,
A friend of mine is using Debian Woody (i guess the version is 3.0). It boots from a floppy and boots up in text mode. When i type startx, it tries different graphical modes and gives an "Insufficient memory" error. I want to boot it in GUI mode.
The GUI only works in 8-bit color mode and not on higher values.
I tried several values of video memory but it didn't worked.
Here is some part of X-server log:
