hehe thanks, well i hope i can this fixed, would u have any idea y at my moms house, when i type startx in slackware, i get some erros suck as mouse not found or crap like that. i have tryed plenty of things, and now when i start the pc, it forces a check on the drives, then when it promps for root login, my keyboard isnt recognized anymore. This is pissing me off so much, so i cant even login anymore!

hey
u ned to configure ur X server
thre is a distro dependent command(redhat has stopped this)

se if it works for u

#XF86config

or

#Xconfigurator

this will edit the
/etc/X11/XF86Config file where u r asked about the keyboard,mouse,display

so this will set things up for u

also take a backup of the above XF86config file in case something goes wrong
