X and LILO DONT START
OK, I successfully installed Slackware 9.1 Now i have two words to say:
COMPLEATE DISASTER!! first, i rebooted the machine. And then my BIOS checked for the boot loaded (LILO) and then on the nextline, it sais "L" and doesnt do anything. So I cant even get into windows right now. (I installed the LILO on the boot table or whatever its called, GRUB worked fine like that) So then i put in my Rescue Disk, logged in as root, and went into /etc/X11/ and ran xf86config. Set it up MANY times to suite my hardware specs, and also the minimal REfresh rates and low resolutions and different drivers. And i cannot get X to open. It just sais a bunch of stuff then sais "Could not start X, make sure it is not already running." Please help, I really want this to work, If not i will go back to SuSE Athlon XP 1700+ ATI Radeon 9800 pro 128MB 512MB RAM Btw, is there Any X configureation program in Slackware similar to SuSE's SaX? |
