Updated SuSE 10.1 to 10.2- X server: no screens found

timothyb89 · 12-09-2006, 06:22 PM

I just updated my SuSE install, but when I boot, X doesn't start and when I try to start, I get the output at http://timothyb89.homelinux.org/X_Log.txt

I can boot, and I can Xdmcp into my SuSE install, but I can't log in locally. Any ideas on how to fix this? (I did install my ATI driver)

Try running the command "sax2" as root and see if it will automatically configure your card for you.

sax needs an X server. Also, I was able to run xorgconfig and I got my X server running, but I can't use my ATI drivers. I know that SuSE cones with a pre-release version of X, but is it possible to get my ATI drivers working?

Sax2 does not need a working X server in order to run. It can be run from text mode or within a GUI. I can't really help with the ATI thing since I stay clear of ATI cards for all my Linux/Unix systems.
