I recompiled the kernel putting the Unix domain sockets directly IN the kernel (not in a module) and it doesn't give me that error message anymore. Xwindows still doesn't work though and quits immediately after starting just like there is no window manager. I have Afterstep, Enlightenment, and TWM installed, and have tried every path possible in the "window-managers" file but to no avail. Any more ideas. Thanks.
