When installing the Xorg 7.1 package, everything goes great until configuring the x-window system.

when doing the following command for the configuration:

Code:
cd ~ &&
Xorg -configure
I get the following error:

My first thought would be to check that error there at the bottom: does /dev/tty0 exist, and what's the permissions on it? Try 'ls -l /etc/tty0'.

Hello guys,

A fresh restart did the trick. Afther restarting i had to install some drivers (fbdev and ati-drivers).
Then i played a day for getting the radeon drivers right and now it works and i have installed xfce.

Thanks for helping!
