This newbie would like some help with the following problem: It began with a cd to /tmp and then a rm -r /tmp. I then wanted to cd ~ but did cd ` byy mistake. This replaced the usual prompt $ by >. I then tried to get a new xterm window by clicking the afterstep icon. Nothing happened. I then rebooted and got the the following when I tried startx:
Fatal server error: Could not create lock file in /tmp/.tX-lock -X11TransSockeeeeeetUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno=2 xinit: No such file or directory (errno=2): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno=3): Server error Could anyone tell me what happened and how to recover. Thanhs so much. Albert Hurd -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
