x - 'no screens found'
 
This is my first installtion.
when typing 'startx' the following appears:

Fatal server error:
no screens found

XIO: fatal IO error 104 (connection reser by peer) on X server "0:0" after 0 requests (0 know processed) with 0 events remaining.


I'm guesing this may have something to do with my video card. I have onboard video from a PC Chips m810d motherboard. There was only 1 Pc Chips in the list, though not an exact match........

Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks!

try running xf86config
It's most likely you need to configure X with the appropriate card, as you said, and set up the appropriate resolution and refresh rates for your monitor.

Hi there.
I'm going to try and do what you said, The refresh rates are easy, but as for the approaprote card, I haven't got a clue, as its onboard video
