can you do like dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg..i ha to set mine to vesa to get started...chhuck
I tried it. I am more used to editing xorg.conf by hand (from slackware days). In any case it made no difference. X seems to start, just no desktop. I get a perfect blank brown screen. I can move my mouse but that's it. I started another virtual console and ran #apt-get update to which I discovered my eth0 was not setup properly. The docs state to set your nic to 192.168.0.254. I found this confusing since I thought this would be my internal network nic ip. Apparently it's not. Surprised they don't just instruct us to let dhcp to set the external nic like k12ltsp does. Hence, edubuntu install seems to require a net connection since it seems like my install got borked. The "getting started" docs don't differentiate between 2 nics eth0 and eth1. Is there a console based tool to setup the network interfaces like in fedora? -- Robert Arkiletian Fl_TeacherTool http://fltk.org/links.php?V269 C++ GUI tutorial http://fltk.org/links.php?V19 -- edubuntu-devel mailing list edubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-devel
