I am new user and trying to install Debian AMD64 through "Sid -AMD64-netinst" CD on my machine that has following specifications. 1. CPU: AMD64 3400+ 2. Marvel Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter 3. Video card: GeForce FX5200
Currently I installed new kernel 2.6.8-10-amd64-k8 and neccesary packages for nvidia following to /usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernel-source/README.debian
when I startx, I get some message as below:
hostname: Unknown host xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "217W-EARDRUM:0" in "list" command xauth: (stdin):1: bad display name "217W-EARDRUM:0" in "add" command
I'm not sure about this one, but might be related to the following errors:
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xserverrc: line 2: /usr/bin/X11/X: No such file or directory /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xserverrc: line 2: exec: /usr/bin/X11/X: cannot execute: No such file or directory xinit: Server error. xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "217W-EARDRUM:0" in "remove" command
Could someone give some suggestions?
Try installing an X server, e.g., apt-get install xserver-xfree86.
