Dear Friends, I am a new user of Debian and just installed it in an old Dell machine, Dell Optiplex with PIII 500. The installation went through well, but I met problems of X Window setting.
The X Window can start correctly. However, after letting it idle for a while, like one day, the system crashes and reports error saying: "I cannot find the X Server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?" I chose "Yes" and it gives me some information. It seems that everything is set to be default or generic. And the fatal error is "No screens found." Then it asked me whether I want to run X configuration. I did and found that I can do nothing except for moving the small arrow with keyboard. I even can't find way to exit it. And I had to reset the computer to restart. I do feel strange. The X Server starts well, but why does it crash after long time idling? I was wondering whether it is the data switch that caused this. I connected two computers with a switch. The other one is M$ Win2000. But this can't explain why it won't crash after a short term idling. Thanks a lot in advance for your help.
