Hello!
I'm new to Debian and this GNU/linux. I've
installed from CD but the machine returns an error saying "I cannot start x
server, it is likely that it is not set up correctly etc etc".
Then next screen says "warning process set to nice
value 0 instead of -10 as requested etc".
Next screen "would you like to run the x config
program etc"
then "I will now try to restart x server again"
then "I cannot start the x server".
It either goes round in circles or I have to
decline and get to the command prompt.
The machine is not yet on either its network or the
internet, the only way in is via CD (no-floppy).
Can anyone tell me how (in simple terms please!)
how to get through this and bring up the GUI? I copied the CD from a
mirror.
I've tried the faq's and other lists.
Also I get loads of error messages, all the same,
thus: ide2: unexpected interrupt, status=0xd0, count= (ascending number), I
think it's because I've got a large SATA drive is this true? How can I lose
the messages echoing to screen?
Thanks....
Adrian
