startx crashes
when i run startx i get the following message
no mode definition 1024*7xx i guess this is s a display/ screen config prob. any ideas ??????? |
Look for the file XF86Config or XF86Config-4 under the directory /etc/X11/ and post the contents of it here.

Post the relevant sections, the sections pertaining to Screen would come to mind, and maybe graphics card.
Or, you can upload the file to my ftp and post a link here ftp://masterc.no-ip.org and here is a username and pass: USER: CCSpoon PASS: s2000 It's not always up, but I will leave it up for a couple days so people can see your file. The link should look something like: ftp://CCSpoon:s2000@masterc.no-ip.org/XF86Config-4 (If you click this, and there is no file XF86Config-4 (which currently there isn't), then it will return an error, so edit that portion) |
alas no ftp

Have you tried running XF86Config as root? And gone through the setup completely and accurately that way?
No ftp? Is it down? |
