Configuting xserver under Slackware 10.2?

sarajevo · 10-18-2005, 06:12 AM

Hi,

I am using Debian, but last week I decided t o install Sackware 10.2 on my box, installation was ok, I am user friendly with debian installation so slackware installation was not problem for me.
I had only problems with x-server.
In debian there is a nice command dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 so I am wondring is there anything similar in Slackware.
This is my first touch with Slackware, and i need some advice about.
Is there any kind of useful Slackware installation manual?

Regards

There is the Slackware script

Code:

xorgconfig

and XOrg's own

Code:

xorgcfg

that you could try when you are not satisfied with Slackware's default X configuration (which uses the VESA driver and should work on all modern hardware).

and `man xorg.conf` should help you
with manually editing the conf file...
