Recently I installed XFree86 on my Intel box in the hopes of getting the NVIDIA drivers up and running. I changed the config files for apt to point to the unstable distro and did the upgrade but it didn't seem to work. Currently I can't even get X up and running and am thinking about reinstalling potato, however I would like to avoid that. Here is the error message I get.
X: cannot stat /etc/X11/X After checking I find the file does exist under /usr/X11R6/bin/X. I tried to simply copy it to the etc/X11 no luck. Tried to create a symlink in X11 no luck. Copying it I get a message like this: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections .. .. .. .. .. ..(ad naseum) Has anyone run into something similar? I have run xf86config and manually checked to make sure the xserver packages and fonts are installed. Any enlightment that could be given is greatly appreciated. PS no need to CC I subscribe.
