X Won't Start, After Synaptic Upgrade
After installing APT as per this wiki:
http://susewiki.org/index.php?title=Install-apt4suse I then installed Synaptic and did an upgrade. It upgraded 164 packages and removed 3. Now when I try to run Suse X won't start. It goes to command line [run level 3?]. I can log in as user or root but when I try to run 'startx' I get this error list: [EE] Failed to load module "i845" [module does not exist, 0] no devices detected Fatal server error: no screens found XIO: fatal IO error 104 [connection reset by peer] on X server ":0.0" after 0 requests [0 known processed] with 0 events remaining Can anyone help me solve this??? :confused: :newbie: |
Editing the xorg.conf file should fix the "no screens found" issue. But why use apt when YAST2 works?

The reason I was using APT/Synaptic is that according to someone on another thread said APT and SMART do a better job of conflict resolution. Needless to say not my experience. I would like to know more about this. I looked for the link that led me in that direction but haven't found it yet. When I do I will discuss this issue with the protagonist. :newbie: |
Use sax2.
You must have omitted the installation of the drivers for the new X.Org - they are not a dependency for thebase package to install. |
